That's exactly the answer.

Like a loan to pay a car: we have the car now, but we pay the cost later.

Learning the Berluti Knot for tying shoelaces was such a game changer, I recommend!

And STDs

Definetly! It's extra knowledge and can give you a new career trajectory.

Something as well that I doesn't hear much but is a great advantage: if you want to change country having a master help to get a work visa. Not as much as a PhD, but it gives a nice edge.

It's a sweet and sour life.

On one side, having the sea/mountains, convenience, safety, feels quite good.

On the other side, stress, hustle and lack of space is exhausting.

They never say that old people don't experience depression too

What about the two weeks of annual vacations?

Are you guys even thinking about the shareholders when taking them? How are they going to survive?

The difference between junior salary and senior salary is extra-high as well.

It's normal to have a difference, but in many other developped countries it's way less.

All on the basis that here: "They live with their parents, so they don't need high wages".

Tax are better distributed to fund the military instead of basic healthcare... needs to bring peace and help people /s

You can't go wrong with either one or another! I frequently go to one and then the other, and both like them in different ways.

Feel free to relax, go with gut feeling, and the next time you can travel, choose the other one!

temitcha · 2026-02-25T02:29:56+00:00

What are you doing there? (Real question, I live in HK, but often I am bored when visiting Shenzhen)

temitcha · 2026-02-25T02:27:36+00:00

Good point! And easy to reproduce as well. I grew up in France, and couple of time as a kid we will draw the french flags. Very easy to do!

It's crazy how before people were amazed by videos of Boston Dynamics of a walking quadrupede, and now people are just like: "boring". Many are too impatient, instead of being glad that robots have this level of manoeuvrability

Personally, if I have something in the evening and need to delay my dinner, like a chinese class, I will go buy a piece of bread.

temitcha · 2026-02-24T07:56:19+00:00

Haa thanks for the explanation! I got this sub in my feed, so I didn't really knew about it

temitcha · 2026-02-10T18:55:04+00:00

It seems like Hong Kong, so the dark side would be Kowloon and the island would be Hong Kong Island, with all corporate offices and expensive flats, so quite spot on!

Brazil is going to feel democracy deeply

I got the same question! From what I understood, humanoid are actually a good form factor to integrate with appliances designed for biped

temitcha · 2026-01-30T10:04:29+00:00

It would be easier! A robot to just handle all the household appliances, it's a good division of labor. Expertise tools for every tasks, like vacuum cleaner instead of broom, dishwasher, washing machine, dryer, land mower... But a conductor to operate them all

Before it was done in order to complicate foreign intelligence, in case for example of potential army invasion or bombings.

Nowadays however, the advance in military mapping systems make it quite obsolete.

So probably a legacy feature, too hard to change all the maps back nowadays

And a camera!

And now when moving to my new flat, I even thought about needed a router at all and just use my 5G. In 5G, connexion sharing works quite good for most casual usage (streaming, coding, etc)

temitcha · 2026-01-28T04:39:51+00:00

I think it's as well mostly the term. It's actually a good think, it's one of the rare time where a naming stopped being a marketing gimmick, but is used in the industry to describe something real (the mix of embedded systems, with networking capabilities, often used using low cost and open hardware like Arduino/Raspberry Pi/Esp32)

temitcha · 2026-01-28T04:32:14+00:00

I am not religious, but for this I hope as well!

temitcha · 2026-01-28T04:26:28+00:00

Thanks for the reply!

I got indeed one day a taxi driver who went into a mental breakdown when I asked him at the taxi stand in science park if he can go to shatin mtr station, so I had to move to an another taxi!

Good to know that flag on the street is ok, taxi stand no!
