Language--Chinese:
I watched episode 38 of Travel in Chinese. This episode was about traditional Beijing teahouses and the performances that are often shown there.
Articles:
I read an article in the Union Tribune about Tijuana's growing tech industry. The implications of this is that Mexico could very well become a country for the US to compete with, though they probably won't be as big competition as China and Germany.
I also read an interview (Adage.com) with Nokia's head geek, Valerie Buckingham, about Nokia's planned comeback. It used to be the biggest cell phone company until the iPhnoes and Androids came around. Buckingham has stressed the importance of Nokia's loyal fans, as they'll be the ones who will hopefully buy the new products the company produces.
Lastly, I read an article from the LA Times about the best jobs for the Millennial generation. At small technology companies, employees could be earning up to $40,000. Unlike previous generations, the Millennials aren't looking for lifetime careers with big companies, which is why smaller companies are best for them.
Philosophy:
I read more about Dewey's moral philosophy (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy). In the case of one's habits being impeded, you must find a different way to make an assessment of them. This is where deliberation comes in. Deliberation involves investigating why the change in habit has occurred and what caused it, which in turn allows you make the same sort of inferences you would if you were just analyze their habits.
Internships:
I found one job on the Qualcomm website, an Augmented Reality Integration and Test Engineer. It sounds interesting but also fairly daunting.
