You see this a lot in SE Asia where there's a lot of housing with no useable kitchens. Because eating out becomes a necessity, there's lots of supply and variety and prices are super low. You don't need economies of scale, ju

Try Shenzhen. Super low cost ubiquitous underground train transport, augmented with super low cost electric taxis and buses for last mile. Occupancy is very high, and trains go every few minutes. Metros stop going at night because the taxi

The parks in Shenzhen have water fountains too, including low-level taps for pet bowls (so it doesn't splash on them and scare them)

You're entirely correct - it's a modified differential drive. The two shafts are coaxial to each other and drive their corresponding gears in opposite directions. The frame is fixed relative to one shaft but mobile relative to the

This is technically true but in real life people mispronounce tones all the time and get understood fine. Mandarin songs have no tonal distinctions at all and nobody has problems understanding them. Getting tone right is super important if

Shenzhen has quite severe elevation differences (which is why a lot of it is unbuilt, even though land values are extremely high) but the bus network was planned to run mostly on the flat bits. HK, being heavily built up already, does not h

Sometimes you have to be very persistent, and that gets interpreted as aggression. For religious cults, diffuse charity collectors and similar it's usually sufficient to politely tell them they've come to the wrong person, and to

Kitchen makes an enormous difference, as mentioned in the sibling comment, and also they are often the only option in small towns. Even in medium-sized towns there might be only one hotel, next to the station, whereas you might want to be e

I have been thinking of starting a service to "neuter" electronics. Like bring your microwave and the beep gets killed. Lots of devices could use this sort of thing - squeaky/annoying noises removed. Fans replaced with quiet

I was doing electronics as a hobby back in my teens, so I don't remember what started it. I then had a decade or so of distraction due to getting involved in computer science, but eventually came back to electronics and now I do both.

There are two types of scrambling here - one is the bitswapping and byteswapping that you use to make DDR3/4 routing possible. The other is the whitening function for high speed data that ensures you don't have long sequences of t

I didn't flag it so can't speak of the motivation of those that did but my observation is that the vast majority of China-critical articles that have dropped in rank happen to be from bloomberg. I definitely wouldn't consider

Good luck rejecting something when it's mandated by your job, as is often the case with slack and other electron-crapware. Electron apps exist because it's not the users deciding what the things they use are built in, it's th
