New Trailer for Two Million Minutes

This is, in my humble opinion, an evolutionary, modern, mondial scale example of "Only the strongest will survive.". And it IS. Really. Happening.

US and Europe = Fail :(

How many of you think it is propaganda to get some funds for education in the US? How many American kids go to India-China to study technology (culture is not what they are worried about)? The reverse is true, the american higher education is still a lot more effective. I guess if we can bind the Chinese and Indian primary education system with the american higher education system the kids would be much more capable. It is not US vs THEM race.

I grew up in California, and have worked for many technical corporations. The top engineers here are immigrants. We are behind... while we as Americans spend a lot of time on entertainment, partying, sex... China and Indians are studying... take a look at your fellow WASP graduates, most are in construction or marketing, and not hard sciences. We are capable of excellence, it's just a simple matter of applying ourselves, and where we put our time.

what does the author think of the assertion that once the students reach college, the top US students are still trying to reach reach the top graduate schools whereas in East Asian countries, the students are set on a track already and do not have that same incentive? I have heard that college is where the US makes up its ground.

From what I understand, the problem is more of a cultural ambivalence towards education rather than a weaker education system. From what I know, undergraduate and graduate level education in China are developing quickly under the central government, and the culture is prime to jump on board. On the other hand, in the US, keeping up by restructuring high school culture is much less straightforward.

The translation of that Chinese male student is not exactly right, should be more like this:

This is ..."Strength In Numbers."

Lately I've been reading this book every night before I go to bed.

This is how I encounter calculus for the very first time

It explains calculus in a super simple way.

high school is 3 years in China though, since they are on a 6-3-3 system. So do you include the last year of middle school for the Chinese students?
