    What do you “multiplication is rotation”?
    I wish there were cool animations like it when I was learning complex numbers.

      I believe this one was sponsored/commissioned by a food company, but a very good, very funny video nonetheless:

        @Axtremus That is a good one, especially when you realize that the passion people have for bakwa 555555

            What accent is that? And why are they speaking English?

              Think people of Chinese descent in former British colonies like Singapore/Malaysia; this explains the English speaking. Most likely they grew up in Cantonese speaking communities that also influenced their accent.

                  Good stuff, Ax. Have you watched Yellowstone? Some of Costner's best work to date. The show is entertaining, not a masterpiece, put some of the acting is quite good.

                          Vietnamese martial arts period action movie.
                          In terms of martial arts choreography and wire act, it’s a lot like watching Hong Kong kungfu serial from 30~40 years ago.
                          But this was shot in hi-def and the sceneries and cinematography are gorgeous!

                                  Not sure if there is an English version of such a succinct, high quality review. Please share if you find one. Otherwise I suppose you’d have to rely on English closed caption (it’s an option that you can turn on in YouTube).

                                    Not sure if this is affiliated with “TED Talk,” but stylistically this looks very much like a “TED Talk”.

                                    This one is from a sociologist who did 20 years of research on mainland China’s sex service industry.

                                    Given mainland China’s censorship regime, not sure how much she had to censor herself before she’s allowed to speak publicly on this topic. Regardless, she shows much compassion with her presentation.

                                        I do not follow figure skating as a sports. I came across this recent video and it seems to me the sports has entered yet a higher level of athleticism. Enjoy!
