Am I reading this right? $2million RMB give asn dividends, which means those villagers get almost 300k USD cash?

do the Americans on XHS know about this?

Thats like a housing deposit in any ‘first world’ nation.

No, $2million to No.2 group ( a subdivision of village). Per head is 6k, based on one grandma takes 36k for 6 persons in her family.
It also depends on your contribution, whether you have a job at the village enterprise.

All this feels like a bit of miniature trial run for the "from USA to USB" transition, where the country and the currency are reorganized into something else and all debt defaulted. Not so much for USA as a country but for Trump so he can gather up wealth before the transition happens so he can be a big landlord after.

Naturally both Trump and Musk would be the founding fathers of USB, thus completing their transition from new money to oldest of old money.

CPC would be happy to support this action, what's a few trillion USD bond worth when in exchange you get to become number 1 power globally.

Seems the reinstatement of TikTok came with a new antichina accounts

https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1881067096375005613

Also spotted a video of a girl who made a comparisson about China and the US and had her account restricted on grounds of "limiting the spread of misinformation"

It's too late already. I've been paying special attention to observing comments under known anti-China personalities and I detect a notable amount of pushback ever since the TikTok Refugee migration calling them out as government paid agitators. There really are already 大儒 defending China on their own initiative.

The recommendation algorithm is only one part of the success story, the generation of metadata associated with each videos are much more important. Can’t recommend a video to users when you have no idea what the video is about. With the amount of content being generated every second, there is no economically viable way to tag the contents without leveraging very sophisticated artificial algorithms. (Other than the tags the authors attached to their own contents)

When i watch Youtube, I got the feeling Google relies on the authors’ tags and the video titles to make the recommendations.

That might be it, because the most uncanny part is how Tiktok is able to make relatively obscure content creators go viral. It happens way more often and way more quickly than other platforms.

The recommendation algorithm isn’t complicated; it’s just based on what you spend more time watching and a general/past recommendation category once in a while, or if you start swiping quickly (indicating loss of interest). Tik Tok just has better content across all categories.

The clustering/tagging of videos is a well solved problem within the ML community and is typically based on a combination of collaborative filtering and video classification, for which there are well established models that work well and are widely used.

Content platforms compete on quality of content far more than recommendation algorithms. If 99% of the videos on your platform are garbage then no amount of recommendation will save it. Tik Tok’s secret is creating a platform built from the ground up on higher quality content; only then is it able to make useful recommendations. This is a concept Instagram and Reels never understood which is why both platforms are just avenues for thirsty men & their providers.

To continue on what @vincent above said, recommending something is more than just about knowing what someone likes, it's about finding the content that person likes as well. Tiktok has better content BECAUSE they're their algorithm is able to promote that better content while other platforms let them languish in obscurity.

On CNN’s State of the Union with Dana Bash, incoming National Security Adviser Michael Waltz doesn’t rule out continued Chinese ownership of TikTok as long as certain "firewalls" are in place.

American continues to soften their position on TikTok
I am reminded of Mao's quote: "The U.S. imperialists are very arrogant; if at all possible, they always refuse to talk reason, and will do so after a fashion only when driven into a tight corner."
