In Hong Kong for example the prices of rents have skyrocketed in the current years. There, if you make less than 2000 USD/month you are considered really poor and you can even get help from the government on this basis.

I have read today an article that made me think: http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/mar/26/inherited-wealth-injustice-lets-end-it I do not agree with the fact that inheritance should be taxed at all (due to the fact that those money had already been taxed in the past) and the fact that the whole institution of inheritance is a bad thing but i do […]

In our case we have 2 bodies of water with different temperatures. The higher the temperature the higher the kinetic energy of the particles. It is a fact that hot water freeze faster than […]

History When i was young i learned in school about humans and the Darwin’s theory. At that time the implications of this theory together with what i learned about natural selection and later about genes and the genetic material meant little to me.

Nowadays when copyright has become more like a weapon than a tool, when our social internet is threatened with extinction I believe that is a good idea for […]

While the informations presented are no doubt valuable and can be put to use in a good manner this TED Talk is also misleading people to think that choosing the easy way is better for them. Overall this TED Talk is […]
