What I have learned today [2015/5/29]


1. Many traders have not seen a rate hike. Yup, this will be interesting. Hopefully, the older generation traders can help them so there is no panic.

2. Nostalgia increases creativity. I have not read the study but it seems to make sense. Thinking about the past makes you think more deeper and in detail and also you look at the past in another perspective, hopefully in a more mature sense. Also, you have the benefit of hindsight, which should help you think better and more analytically.

3. Swiss cheese hols disappeared as fully automated milking systems eliminated the growth of small hay particles that created holes in the cheese.

4. China is subsidizing inefficient farming, creating waste and pollution.

5. Paris city hall workers will cut the locks in Pont des Arts due to the concerns about stress on the bridge.

6.  Roughly 8,000 Chinese students were expelled from US colleges in 2014 mainly for cheating and low grades. This is not really a high number but still it concerning because China does not have its test centers due to cheating scandals. It is time that we stop academic dishonesty.

7.  Awesome pictures showing why archaeology is so cool and inspiring.
