What I have learned today [2015/5/10]


1. There are 15,700 garment workers in NYC. In 1960, 95% of US clothing was made in NYC.

2. Pandanus candelabrum plant grows in columns of kimberlite, which may carry diamonds. So find Pandanus candelabrum plant and you increase the chance of finding diamonds :D

3. Alabama started taxing digital goods.

4. Dubai has been proposed  an underwater Tennis court. This sounds very cool but also an alarming waste of resources? Dubai could use that money to invest in education and treat its migrant workers better/

5. Rural farmers are becoming more productive by providing locally; thus, growing the local economy. I think this is a good start, I expect more efficiency gains through the development of the local economy, which attract further talent and resources.
