The Chinese Computer: A Global History of the Information Age https://lnkd.in/eGC4mDaB A big shout-out to the people at Imug, who are still coming up with essential and innovative presentations like this one last month. They cover a wide range of topics relevant to the Localization industry and do so for a very affordable price. Once upon a time, during my Master's at MIIS, I paid for their lifetime membership, and I have never regretted going to any of their lectures, even when the topic seems far from my current area of professional expertise, or should I say especially when the topic is far from my area of expertise. There is no growth without new ideas and no new localization ideas without input from people who have seen and lived parts of our world culture that are still foreign to us. I leave you the link to their LinkedIn profile and MeetUp page. https://lnkd.in/euFPYJVu https://lnkd.in/eUS2ZhYV
