    What other sources would you recommend Tildes should get their users from? It could only rely on invites by existing users for a while but maybe that doesn't result in the desired amount of influx.

  2. If you are going to travel in the near future I recommend you check out Attaché, a web-series that gives a comprehensive overview of various cities and regions.

    They are not overly long and often give some nice information on local transport, currency, scams, food and cultural etiquette. These are two of their videos. One focusing on the Kyushu island in Japan and the other on Copenhagen in Denmark.

    If any of you know of other good online travel resources, I'd love to hear about it!

    That was very insightful, thank you! Although it seems fairly obvious that the context in which a concept is learned can influence the way we define the concept for ourselves, I don't think I have ever thought about it explicitly like that before. It might be the same reason why we tend to learn math in a more generalized context rather than in a more specific context. By not embedding the concept within a specific context in our mind it might be easier to apply it to another problem.

    If you liked this one I recommend the one he refers to as well. Great stuff!
