You have one life. What do you want to spend it paying attention to – your phone? - Important to be aware of, even if you don't immediately change your usage. I for one would love to ditch the mobile device and just have a laptop. But that isn't possible at the minute. www.theguardian.com #

A restless Gen Z is reshaping the Chinese Dream - I hope the jobs situation for the youth in China improves. It's an interesting article if only to get a window into a very different world. Anecdotally I'm less convinced by the developing world / developed world distinction these days, at least the way it's popularly understood. The more I have traveled, especially around asia, the more I realise how innadequate these comparisons are. Yes in some senses poverty and hardship is more visible in some places, but on the other hand while places like the US have giant shops with every concievable grocery, with abundance of products and colors everywhere, in asia you have entire streets that are a vaste sea of variety and beautiful colors, filled with exotic delights. I wonder what the UK equivalent would be of student girl they interview for the article with her thick brown sugarcane filled hotcakes, spicy Sichuan sausage, mooncakes, chestnuts and dried mango. Fish & chips, a savoloy and some mushy peas? Perhaps the metric we measure by should be something else. We have very different societies optimised in very different ways. www.bbc.com #
