I visited Chengdu (among others) in 2017/2018 and saw the square dancing many times. Always found it charming, especially seeing that the elderly have some active ways to spend their time. It must be good for their health. But yes they

I use ANC headphones but it seriously feels like a gimmick to me. So ANC is great for removing car noise? I don't really need it, prefer to hear the oncoming traffic. Oh they help for aeroplane engine hum? Well, it's not really bo

I have USB cables that just work with charging, some give me USB 2.0 data and one very expensive that lets me extend my USB hub/dongle. The latter works with video and power delivery. I tried cheaper cables before and something always

It's a part of the City though. Not sure it's comparable.

I wrote my whole master thesis as you describe. It was logical to me. Then my promotor complained that it's not correct so I had to go through whole 100+ pages to correct all the instances.

From Pro Audio perspective, it's even easier than on Windows. Not sure about Mac OS, never tried it.

Funnily, it seems like some form of 21st century imperialism. But this time it's using cultural tools instead of guns.

I really like the Chinese way of counting. As far as I remember you can go as high as 99 on both hands. Still, I'm never able to memorise it, no matter how many times I learn it.

99% of all the calls I get are from marketers or even worse, robot marketers. Everyone who actually knows me and talks to me regularly knows better to use other channels.

Getting any software engineering is probably as easy as 1-2-3. It's getting a promising job, in which you can grow, what's hard. And yes the recruitment process can be very tedious, illogical and sometimes even unfair. On the ot
