Why I hate my job: 18 out of 21 developers are Chinese daily smokers barely speak English.
Why I love my job: We build software/hardware to predict future earthquakes and save lives and hundred million or even billions dollars in damages. And of course make China super rich by selling it.

    @Jung there are two ways. The one is thru velocities of seismic waves and the other is thru changes in radon emissions. One was failed pretty hard in terms of future development of this theory (all was done in China for about 5 years) so the other one is the only hope for success ...

    @rayanon thank you. Even if it won't be possible to make sharp edge predictions no one will feel bad, because we tried.

    @k1rushqa I'm curious about how do you measure velocity of seismic waves?

    Do you deal with volcanoes too or just earthquakes?

    I once heard somewhere that the moon's position can help with sesmic activity predictions since it causes stress in the magma layer using the same tidal mechanism. Is there some truth to it or is it just an unbased speculation?

    @rayanon we didn't do it. It was done by another team in China.

    很有意思！你工作也在中国吗？
    That's really interesting! Do you work in China, too?
