Viết chữ đẹp là một trong những thú vui / kĩ năng vừa thú vị vừa quan trọng trong cuộc sống. Bên cạnh tính giải trí, viết chữ cũng là một cách thư giãn không quá tốn kém: bạn chỉ cần bút, gôm và giấy, kết hợp thêm trí tưởng tượng nữa là đủ.
Loại hình nghệ thuật xuất phát từ việc viết chữ có nhiều, có thể là Calligraphy (chỉ thuần viết chữ), Typography (nghệ thuật sắp xếp kí tự) hay nếu bạn thích cả vẽ nữa thì kết hợp với viết chữ nó sẽ là Hand Lettering. Continue reading Hand Lettering là gì?

Things to do in your free time

You’re not really free in this busy life, but there’s certain moment you don’t want to work and want to replace them (your heavy works!) with something fun. Here are they:
- Drawing/doodling:
Drawing is making your right brain work. In that way, this act will boost your creativity and imagination, things would be lacking during your working time. Also, what you achieve at the end (a cute cat, for example) can be used for decoration purpose. Two birds one stone. Continue reading Things to do in your free time

Now we can even measure the intellect of animals.

Available Python tools for researchers
When I first start my research life, I began with Python, and I never go back. Python is powerful, simple, rich and widely supported.
In my researches, I met several problems, and I built the solution, but a lot of them are already prepared in Python.
- Plotting – matplotlib:
I often use Matlab to plot my diagrams, but matplotlib is so powerful and produces nice plots. There are lots of examples that you will be able to master this package in no time. Continue reading Available Python tools for researchers
Don’t stop writing
Can’t believe I stopped writing for a while.
As a researcher and a curious person, I always want to learn something new and something that is innovative. That is to say, in my free time, I tend to find new courses, learning new techniques that I didn’t know before, and dunk myself into them. That sounds good at the beginning, when new things in life give you the excitement of exploring something fresh, let you have feeling that you’ve never experienced before.
So, what have I done in the last 4 years of academic world?
Tuổi học trò
Cái tuổi mộng mơ đó…
Tuổi học trò bao giờ cũng thiệt là dễ thương, tuổi của những trò ngu dại, của những thơ ngây, của những ngông cuồng, của những lãng mạn chớm nở, của những kỷ niệm trong veo hay cả những lần suýt chết; và nếu được cơ hội làm lại, ai cũng sẽ muốn sống lại khoảng thời gian kì diệu đó thêm một lần nữa trong đời.
Drawing on Android apps – Updated
Drawing on tablet or phone is much more easier and convenient nowadays, with the help of the stylus and some decent drawing apps.
Reviews of those drawing app for android devices can be found everywhere, but some are outdated, some are too professional, so I try to write a review for the apps that I used, also try to write them as simple as I can.
Handle Error in Python with try except
for i in range(20):
try:
something here
except IOError:
pass
When python finds error in the code, it will stop and escape the loop and it might be a nightmare for us, so making an exception handler is a smart choice.
The above code is the simplest usage of try… except function, it means that, from the range(20) we will do ‘something here’, but if there are errors, here for example the error IOError is the error of not finding the object, thanks to try except, python in this case will process the ‘pass’ (forget the error and continue). So the loop is safe and can be continued.
What I do when I work
This is not a savvy post about what people should do while working to boost up their productivity. This is what I often do, and that makes me feel guilty and productive at the same time.
1. Surfing internet:
Sure thing. If I don’t surf internet while I’m working, I lie. But they definitely give you some good effects on your day: lift up your stress, give you some lesson about handling your software and something similar. But to be honest, when you’re in a project, a serious project, forget this part.
Create some arts, write something
Even when the your life is a little bit busy with works, with your house and several misc. things, you should always find a little time to develop your skill of writting and drawing, because it’s simple: it’s good for your brain.
