<p>As much as I would love to be with my parents in Japan as well, I just don&#39;t &quot;feel&quot; pursuing anything in the country. I would rather pursue my field in the West or stay in the Philippines. 🫤</p>

<p>To be honest, I&#39;m very jealous of the older generations of academics who have many connections with japanese researchers because in my generation, it&#39;s so difficult to connect with anyone who is as enthusiastic about neuroscience and other sciences.Western academics would tell me to take my opportunities to continue my studies and career in Japan, but they&#39;re not aware that my generation is vastly different from theirs. Young people nowadays in Japan bore me lol</p>

For example, making a data-structure &quot;list-like&quot; is often more of an incidental implementation detail that might not be that important in the big picture.</p>

Absolutely huge markup compared to their actual wholesale acquisition costs.</p>
