I like this. Last year I started writing down "one cool thing I've done" every day and it definitely helps me appreciate my life more. Recently I had a couple of days where I couldn't come up with anything to note, which

Yup. It was 5pm in South Korea when this hit. Suddenly much less quiet than usual on the Engineering floor.

I wonder if this will improve connection to South Korea as well. Browsing .de websites from here involves a trip around the world, Seoul - San Jose - New York - London - Frankfurt for an average ping of 300ms.

> A basic 13" MacBook can cost close to $1800 there. As far as I can tell, Apple prices in Korea are the same as in Europe. The US seems to be more an exception than Korea.

I presume the author lives in Japan? Living in Korea, I find the different perception interesting. To me, Korea is much more modern than any Japanese city. In contrary, to me Japan has some kind of "old flair" everywhere. Just how

I thought it might also be the other way around. Because everyone gets a free smartphone even with the cheapest contract, KakaoTalk has this huge market.

Also, add elevation information. Especially for cycling, would be great to see how a slightly longer route compares to a shorter one with bigger ascents. Wrote this, googled it and actually found something fairly useful: http://w

So cool! To do the same was the original reason why I bought an Arduino a year ago, but I never really finished the project.

"offenbar" can indeed mean "obviously", but in the context of a news article it's a weasel word more close to "apparently". To a native speaker, this word sounds as though they are presenting facts, but

Why is "-11%" rendered as "Moderate"? Everything <0 should be "Easiest", shouldn't it? Or maybe even add another category, "Downhill"? Also, any idea why this doesn't work for Berlin, Germany? You could at least show the ZERO_RESULTS st

I'd say the roots of that still lie in the post war structures of Germany. You know, the division of Berlin, the GDR. That's still just 23 years ago. The city center was first bombed and then at the frontiers, so it was cheap - to put it si

I'm from Berlin, so I naturally enjoy the kind of hype that's being created since one or two years ago. However, I'd like to stress what someone in the video said: It's just budding and really not yet comparable to New York or London. There
