being a singaporean, i have to sadly agree with you on the points.
it's quite bad enough that they keep claiming that they're using the best technology when in fact, they just typically bought it from somewhere else.
It has a quite a bad propaganda which you guys can't even tell from it unless you really think deep about it.
Cars here are so expensive also. On top of that, you need to pay more to "own" the car. For some cars, that cert cost even more than the car itself. Not only that, we have road tax, erp, parking fee, etc, etc whatnot.
Income inequality is quite prominent, even though they claim that they have high GDP. Of course you can say your country has it worst...but hell, you wouldn't claim your country has no beggar if there's someone in the streets picking up cardboard and begging for money, would you?
last but not the least, the population is so dam high and i think like...40% are foreigners? I can't tell who are foreigners anymore.
There are more things that I can think of, but I just end it here in case I get arrested for saying "wrong" things
I would think it is somewhat difficult to define who is a "foreigner" in Singapore. "Born outside the country" might be something you can clearly derive from papers.
But 200 years ago the island had about 1,000 people living there, almost all of them indigenous Malays. Current population of 5.5 million, mostly ethnic Chinese, likely does not have very many who would be descended from them?
>Websites also can't spam you with push notifications the way installed apps can, so I strongly prefer them as a user. But I suspect this is one reason companies like apps
poorly maintained or non-efficient backend that didn't take note of whether the user receive a push or not leads to this problem. It's not the app problem itself totall
Like other web standards, these things tend to get implemented in a piecemeal fashion according to consensus and demand. By the time the standards are published, much of their content is already implemented in modern browsers.
For example, the ES6 spec was just published a few months ago, so it will still be a year before we see ES7. In spite of that, the async / await capabilities are sufficiently compelling and agreed upon that patches are already being reviewed for Firefox: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1185106
Kangax's tables, linked in another reply, are a great way to check what the support situation is like across browsers.
