Today I am presenting in Kyiv (remotely).

I was there exactly six years ago, on March 25, 2013. It snowed. There was an emergency. I didn’t get to see the city because there was no means of transportation – everything was out of order 🙂 APCs helped trolleys not to slide down the hill backwards and block the passage for the few SUVs. The ‘U’ in a triangle on the APC was amusing in itself)

An intriguing little life hack for calculating percentages:

X% of Y = Y% of X

So, for example, if you need to calculate 4% of 75 mentally, just swap the numbers and calculate 75% of 4, which is much easier.

Understandably, this is somewhat obvious from a mathematical point of view (100 in the denominator moves to the second factor), but nobody has been doing this in mental calculations, right?

It’s truly a major revolution, comparable to iTunes in its time. Even if not everything is as perfect as claimed, the idea is fiery, with all the technical implementation in place. I’m not a gamer at all, but at first glance, there have been no conceptual changes for about twenty years after internet multiplayer.
