Two things learnt in the recent past
A much delayed post. The two most important things I learnt in nine days at Asia Source:
1. You will inevitably detest others for the qualities you detest in yourself, and
2. The USB thumbdrive is the new floppy disk. Practically everyone had one and used them to transfer files between laptops, despite being connected over a wireless network. The thumbdrive has occupied the void left by dysfunctional server-less file sharing (Windows networking aka SMB being the most popular -- and troublesome -- implementation).

Truer words were never spoken. The realization is a zen moment in one's life.
