Wow! So many answers and almost all of them wrong!This is not due to “laws of reflection in physics”. Mirrors do not reverse left and right. Think about it: how would a mirror distinguish left and right from up and down, which is not reversed? A mirror has no built-in sense of gravity. Mirrors still work in space! In fact, a mirror only reverses “in and out”, i.e. around the plane of the mirror, which is the only preferred plane a mirror can have. Also consider: you see the initial letter A of “ambulance” on your left in the mirror and that’s where the letter A behind you actually is when you are looking straight ahead, so again left and right are not reversed. You can read more about this here.So what about the ambulance? What you are seeing is indeed an “in out” inversion. Imagine the ambulance was made of glass. What does the ambulance driver see? He sees the lettering on the front the right way round. What’s more, if he was able to see the reflection of the word Ambulance in your rear view mirror, it would still be right way round.Imagine then that the ambulance overtakes you. Now you see the lettering the right way round too… BUT NOTHING FLIPPED FROM LEFT TO RIGHT AS YOU WERE OVERTAKEN. The lettering was always the right way round.But, you may object, if you turn your head to look at the writing on an ambulance behind you, it looks wrong way round. Yes, but that wasn’t the mirror doing a reversal — that was you turning your head. The mirror just allows you to see it without turning your head.

What does productivity mean to you? We’re all expert procrastinators whether we like to admit it or not, the digital age has created an abundance of distractions that can keep you from focusing on important things, all day long if it comes down to it. Even the subject of productivity tools comes down to a single factor — it’s all designed for mental discipline training, because even though these tools exist and they’re useful to be more disciplined at your work, they’ll only be as good as the user himself.For: All-In-One OrganizationProofHubProofHub lets you stay in ultimate control of your projects, remote teams and clients even when you are on the go. Aside from giving team member the ability to manage and collaborate projects in real-time, the other big reason for choosing ProofHub is its super simple and brings everything under one roof. ProofHub is as simple as you want it to be (clean UI, to-do lists, project planning, group chat, review deign files, project reporting), but also as advanced as they sometimes need it to be (assign custom roles, white labeling. multilingual, time tracking, private tasks, complex multi-milestone projects, large remote team, n number of tasks).For: Social Media MastermindsBufferBuffer makes it extraordinarily easy to share web articles via social media without headache and hassle. Simply log into Buffer, connect social media accounts, and schedule specific content sharing times. When you’re out and about surfing the web and see an article you know your followers will love, hit the Buffer bookmarklet button and Buffer will throw that article into your queue, which it will then share at one of your designated share times.Buffer helps promote great content across the web and helps you store and share content so you don’t cram articles down the throats of your followers all at once.IFTTTIFTTT, standing for If This Then That, lets you craft “recipes” that allow for various apps and services to connect and work together. For example, I can create an IFTTT recipe that automatically uploads my Instagram photos to my Google Drive account. Create awesome integration with zero programming experience! If you can think it, you can IFTTT it.IFTTT can be utilized in endless combinations, and not just with regards to social media. However, social media users will find this an essential tool in their social shed.For: CopywritingODesk / ELanceSometimes the best man for the job is someone who is not you. Heck, probably pretty often the best man for the job isn’t you. Maybe because you aren’t even a man; maybe you’re a carrot. Who knows?If you need to get going with blogging content (and trust me, you do, because everyone does), then ODesk and ELance are decent places to start.These sites are free to sign up with, then you provide them with 10% of each payment per project. Alternatively, scour LinkedIn for freelancers. Usually you can get a decent assessment of a freelancer’s skill level by checking out their profile and doing a little digging. Whichever path you take, just remember that copy can’t be done single-handedly, so don’t be afraid to hire out some help.HemingwayBack when I was compiling a list of the best content marketing tools, one WordStream commenter (thanks Nicole!) made a suggestion of trying out Hemingway – it’s a great little tool that checks your grammar and highlights potential sentence danger zones as you write. Give it a type!For: News & Blog JunkiesPodkickerIf you’re a podcast addict, you’ll want a podcast app to help you organize your subscriptions. I’ve been using Podkicker for years and really enjoy its simple, easy-to-use interface. It’s free, but you can also update to Podkicker Pro (to get rid of ads) for $2.PocketPocket is a sweet little app that lets you save awesome content (articles, images, videos, etc.) to check out later.Picture this: you’re surfing around researching and see a fun article about the all-time best Pokemon (Arcanine, duh). Hit the Pocket button in your bookmark toolbar and the article will go straight to your Pocket. Pocket syncs across devices so you that later on you can read those fun articles and watch YouTube videos of mini pot-bellied pigs during the train ride home.

My TOP list is as follows:1. Communication tool - SlackOur team has been successfully using Skype for quite a while, and this is a way out for some teams, both small and bigger ones, but Slack is more convenient to use for IT teams, for marketers, sales people, and other industry-specific teams.2. Time tracking tool - ClockifyI like Clockify – it’s very simple, you create a task, you start tracking your time, you stop when you’re done, AND you can also check how much time you spent weekly on each working task.3. To do list – Trello boardsThe next tool I LOVE is Trello. This is a perfect one for outlining your day to day tasks, your future tasks, mapping out your ideas, sharing them with your team members, and so on.4. G Suite.No comments - couldn’t do without it.5. CalendlyIF you have a large number of meetings daily.6. Project management toolThroughout my years in IT I have met and used different PM tools, like Jira, YouTrack, Asana, and TeamGantt. And I must say that each one is good for its own purpose – so you simply choose the one that work best for you.7.

Deliveries is a good app, it has a complication which you can add to your watch face. A complication is a widget that can be placed in different areas of the watch face. Deliveries will show you how many days left or just gives you quick access to open it.Cheat sheet is good for Passwords or pins and also comes with a complication. If you are in the UK Natwest and Barclays apps are good as you can check your bank balance from your watch. With Natwest you can use the watch to get money from an ATM without needing to put your Bank Card in the ATM.Trello is good too on the watch. You can add voice notes to cards. One Note can also add voice notes.Try out the camera app for the odd occasion where you need to take a selfie at a distance and have the camera propped up, you can check your watch to see if you are in frame and set a countdown timer to take your picture.

I am a native Hindi speaker, but having grown up in Canada and the UK I was never educated in Hindi. My grandparents taught me to read and write in Devanagari, and while I am getting better and quicker at it, the laughter from my parents at my initial attempts has definitely left me less amenable to the ‘Devanagari is the most perfect, scientific script’ nonsense that people keep telling me while laughing at my mistakes.From this perspective, there are a number of changes which you could say would make it easier for children, foreigners, and second-gens to learn it, many of which have been raised by others:Marking of schwa-deletion / use of halant (the schwa-deletion diacritic, so seldom used): there are no satisfactory rules to predict how to read things, leading to heteronyms like ‘dharkane’ and ‘dharakne’, both written धड़कनेUse of diacritics to distinguish foreign sounds, particularly ones like z and f which are pretty much embedded phonemes now for most educated speakersFixing weirdly spelled (or alternatively weirdly pronounced) words like ye and vo, which are spelled yaha and vaha respectivelyThese last two are parts of bigger problems:On the first, Devanagari has not really standardised ways of transliterating from Arabic at all – most importantly for letters like ‘ain ع – in the way that it is now standardising approaches to English vowels like [æ] and [ɔ]On the second, the Hindi sequence VhV – that is, a h nestled between any two vowels – is unstable in general, usually resulting in an open vowel like [ɛ] being pronounced in a ‘breathy’ way; this can make the consonant in front of it seem aspirated, but is often unpredictable(my parents – both educated in Hindi in India – had a healthy debate about the correct spelling of the word pronounced kathel ‘jackfruit’ – for the record, per Wiktionary, the answer is katahala कटहल, which is nothing like how it is pronounced)I always used to get tripped up with words like bahut ‘very’, which is usually pronounced something like [bɔht]But the truth is, while all sorts of changes might make Devanagari easier for learners (or ‘more scientific’), they are no really big deals. So Hindi has the odd heteronym, where pronunciation is not predictable (like धड़कने). So what? English has tonnes of those (‘read’ and ‘read’, for instance) and is none the worse for it. Hindi has confusing pronunciation for sequences like VhV – big deal; English has confusing pronunciation for sequences like gh and is absolutely fine.All of these then are reasons to just acknowledge that Hindi’s Devanagari spelling is not ‘scientific’, no matter what nonsense nationalists and schoolteachers spin, and get on with the job of just learning it as it is, warts and all. Put the work in, and we will be fine.What change would I make then?For me, I think Brahmi missed a trick when it never came up with a doubling sign for consonants. Well done to Gurmukhi for recognising that Arabic shaddah or tashdid was, literally, a master-stroke, and creating addak out of it.True, Hindi has fewer geminated consonants than Punjabi does. But nevertheless, it has enough to be really inconvenient when writing in Devanagari. Let’s be honest: ligatures or ‘joraakshar’ are Devanagari’s least well handled element; schwa deletion gets rid of one big set of those, but a doubling sign would get rid of another major chunk.So I would change Devanagari by adding a doubling sign for geminated consonants. Other than that, I think it is fine – not ‘scientific’ or ‘perfect’, but good enough, usually.

Here's one noteworthy peer-to-peer education model in Paris newly opened in November 2013 to students around the world, tuition FREE! — École 42  — The school, housed in a former government building used to educate teachers (ironically enough), was started by Xavier Niel. The founder and majority owner of French ISP Free, Niel is a billionaire many times over. He’s not well known in the U.S., but here he is revered as one of the country’s great entrepreneurial successes in tech. This French Tech School Has No Teachers, No Books, No tuition — And It Could Change EverythingAbove: Nicolas Sadirac, the director of the ambitious, free, French tech school Ecole 42. Image Credit: Dylan Tweney/VentureBeatNicolas Sadirac, a French entrepreneur and educator, is the school’s director. Before École 42 he ran Epitech, a well-regarded, private, for-profit school that trained software engineers.PARIS — École 42 might be one of the most ambitious experiments in engineering education.It has no teachers. No books. No MOOCs. No dorms, gyms, labs, or student centers. No tuition.And yet it plans to turn out highly qualified, motivated software engineers, each of whom has gone through an intensive two- to three-year program designed to teach them everything they need to know to become outstanding programmers.The school, housed in a former government building used to educate teachers (ironically enough), was started by Xavier Niel. The founder and majority owner of French ISP Free, Niel is a billionaire many times over. He’s not well known in the U.S., but here he is revered as one of the country’s great entrepreneurial successes in tech. He is also irrepressibly upbeat, smiling and laughing almost nonstop for the hour that he led a tour through École 42 earlier this week. (Who wouldn’t be, with that much wealth? Yet I have met much more dour billionaires before.) Niel started École 42 with a 70 million euro donation. He has no plans for it to make money, ever.“I know one business, and that’s how to make software,” Niel said. “I made a lot of money and I want to give something back to my country,” he explained.To make the school self-sustaining, he figures that future alumni will give back to their school, just as alumni of other schools do. If a few of them become very rich, as Niel has, perhaps they, too, will give millions to keep it going.The basic idea of École 42 is to throw all the students — 800 to 1,000 per year — into a single building in the heart of Paris, give them Macs with big Cinema displays, and throw increasingly difficult programming challenges at them. The students are given little direction about how to solve the problems, so they have to turn to each other — and to the Internet — to figure out the solutions.The challenges are surprisingly difficult. One student I talked with was coding a ray tracer and building an emulation of the 3-D dungeon in Castle Wolfenstein within his first few months at the school. Six months earlier, he had barely touched a computer and knew nothing of programming. He hadn’t even finished high school.In fact, 40% of École 42′s students haven’t finished high school. Others have graduated from Stanford or MIT or other prestigious institutions. But École 42 doesn’t care about their background — all it cares about is whether they can complete the projects and move on. The only requirement is that they be between the ages of 18 and 30.“We don’t ask anything about what they’ve done before,” Niel said.Yet École 42 is harder to get into than Harvard: Last year, 70,000 people attempted the online qualification test. 20,000 completed the test, and of those, 4,000 were invited to spend four weeks in Paris doing an intensive project that had them working upwards of 100 hours a week on various coding challenges. In the end, 890 students were selected for the school’s inaugural class, which began in November, 2013. (The average age is 22, and 11 percent of the first class is female.)890 students out of 70,000 applicants means an acceptance rate a little north of 1%, or if you only count those who completed the test, 4.5%. By contrast, Harvard accepts about 6% of its applicants. And, even with financial aid, it charges a whole lot more than ZERO for its classes.The upshot: If it works, the school’s course of education will produce coders who are incredibly self-motivated, well-rounded in all aspects of software engineering, and willing to work hard. (The four-week tryout alone, with its 100-hour weeks, blows away the French government’s official 35-hour-work week.)All of École 42′s projects are meant to be collaborative, so the students work in teams of two to five people. At first glance, the École’s classrooms look a little bit like a factory floor or a coding sweatshop, with row after row of Aeron-style chairs facing row after row of big monitors. But a closer look reveals that the layout is designed to facilitate small-group collaboration, with the monitors staggered so that students can easily talk to one another, on the diagonals between the monitors or side by side with the people next to them. Students can come and go as they please; the school is open 24 hours a day and has a well-appointed cafeteria in the basement (with a wine cellar that can hold 5,000 bottles, just in case the school needs to host any parties).Students share all of their code on Github (naturally). They communicate with one another, and receive challenges and tests, via the school’s intranet. Everything else they figure out on their own, whether it means learning trigonometry, figuring out the syntax for C code, or picking up techniques to index a database.Tests are essentially pass-fail: Your team either completes the project or it doesn’t. One administrator compared it to making a car: In other schools, getting a test 90% right means an A; but if you make a car with just three out of four wheels, it is a failure. At École 42, you don’t get points for making it part way there — you have to make a car with all four wheels.The no-teachers approach makes sense, as nearly anything you need to know about programming can now be found, for free, on the Internet. Motivated people can easily teach themselves any language they need to know in a few months of intensive work. But motivation is what’s hard to come by, and to sustain — ask anyone who has tried out Codecademy but not stuck with it. That has prompted the creation of “learn to code” bootcamps and schools around the world. École 42 takes a similar inspiration but allows the students to generate their own enthusiasm via collaborative (and somewhat competitive) teamwork.Sadirac and Niel say that some prestigious universities have already expressed interest in the school’s approach. The two are considering syndicating the model to create similar schools in other countries.But even if they never expand beyond Paris, École 42 could become a signNow force in software education. France already has a reputation for creating great engineers (in software as well as in many other fields).If École 42 adds another thousand highly-motivated, entrepreneurial software engineers to the mix every year, it could very quickly accelerate this country’s competitiveness in tech.And the model will force schools like Harvard to make an extra effort to justify their high tuitions. If you can get training like this for free, and you want to be a software engineer, why go to Harvard?(news link:) This French tech school has no teachers, no books, no tuition -- and it could change everything

It’s amazing how much people don’t understand those laws.You can speak anything at home, on the street and so on. However, you must not become an assimilating presence by forcing your employees to speak English when there is no good and imperative reason to (you can’t force them to not work in French).You are expected as a business to be able to provide a service in French to the local population.Advertisements and signs can be in any language… as long as there is French as well somewhere…There are many accommodations to make it lenient. For example, a small corporation of less than 50 employees has not to get a certificate of francization, they are left alone. English news channel are allowed to advertise entirely in English, with no bilingualism.Workplace technical terms, that might be difficult to translate, are all monitored by the OQLF, and they recommend some words to make compliance to the laws easier for corporations so they don’t have to figure out themselves how to say everything, especially when it’s quite difficult (example, a jigger in bartending is a gobelet doseur).There is an entire English health and education system (those English schools are for the ancestral English community before tertiary education, i. e. college, as if we allowed immigrants AND FRANCOPHONES to do as they pleased, they would anglicize Québec in less than 20 years).
