Part 2 of our series on whether to buy or to rent in Malaysia (and anywhere really!). We go through a real life example to compare the financial impact of the 2 scenarios.
One of the biggest problems for Malaysians today is the lack of affordable housing, especially in major urban areas. Property prices have soared over the years and even with the recent slow down are still beyond the means of the majority of the population. In this market, is renting better than buying, long term? How do the numbers work out?
Limited Liability Partnerships (LLP) are type of business vehicle that combine the characteristics of a traditional company and that of a conventional partnership, in what could be considered the best of both worlds. Here, we talk about how to register LLPs In Malaysia, and why you would want to.
Exchanging business cards is a social construct dating way before the digital age. These days it seems a slightly outdated way of exchanging information. But if everybody exchanged cards like these guys, we'd be happy to do it all day long.
The exciting world of virtual reality beckons. Painting in 3D will allow a whole new level of creative freedom.
On our team building trip to Korea we saw some examples of how important good copywriters are!
Wow is it hot! The car is reading 43 degrees today, which seems a bit high to be believable, but still... it is undeniably boiling!
Here's some quick and simple reminders to stay cool in the heat.
A group of art historians, scientists, engineers and data analysts got together to analyze Rembrandt's entire body of work using deep learning algorithms. Using this data, they were able to extract all the features of the painting that makes a Rembrandt a Rembrandt, and get the computer to then create its own version in 3D (including the height map associated with real layered paintings).
So some farmers in Finland decided to put a chainsaw on a drone.
What could possibly go wrong there? (Hint: See here.)
You might want to start stocking up on balloons.
An interesting tidbit I just came across, explaining why it is that I'm always being victimized by killer mosquitoes while my friends lounge around completely unmolested.
We generally can't stand click-bait type statements, but you really do have to see this to believe it.
Just a quick post because this is pretty impressive.
Ships are being built bigger and bigger these days. In fact, many experts think we have now reached the peak for ship sizes, and it doesn't make economical sense to go any bigger.
Necessary or not, these huge ships are engineering marvels. The logistics of building one of these giants is crazily complicated. And after you've built a ginormous ship on land, how do you get it into the water?
It turns out you pretty much just dump it in and hope it doesn't tip over (ok, a bit more than hope!). And its pretty interesting to see the resulting splash. Take a skim through this video (its about 10 minutes long, so you only need to skim it to get the idea).
Have a great week ahead guys and girls!
