Chemistry is fun. Too hard for precise physics (pre quantum computing, see also quantum chemistry), but not too hard for some maths like social sciences.

And it underpins biology.

At teaching.chem.ox.ac.uk/undergraduate-course-handbook.aspx there's a paywall, but Google found the PDF it anyways.

www.ox.ac.uk/students/academic/guidance/undergraduate/handbooks in theory links to all handbooks, but some are likely paywalled. But Google can generally find them anyways.

A Chess UI is a program that interfaces with a chess engine in order using a computer chess interface to allow human players to interact conveniently with the engine.

They are the finite projective special linear groups.

This was the first infinite family of simple groups discovered after the simple cyclic groups and alternating groups. The first case discovered was $PSL(2,p)$ by Galois. You should understand that one first.

One of the best in the world, but you need to know how to find real restaurants if you are not in China.

But worry not, Ciro Santilli has got you covered: github.com/cirosantilli/china-dictatorship/restaurants

Some stuff at: cirosantilli.com/china-dictatorship/#the-best-chinese-food but that is bound to die one guesses.

The first human-made nuclear chain reaction.

Within the The Holy Trinity of popular Brazilian music, Chico tends to approach the more down to Earth and heavy topics.

These did not stand the test of time however.

When Ciro was ten years old, he was addicted to 2 cartoons: Pokemon and Dragon Ball Z!

Pokemon had just launched in Brazil in 1999, 2 years after the Japanese launch: br.historyplay.tv/hoje-na-historia/comeca-exibicao-original-do-anime-pokemon (archive) And Dragon Ball, was first aired in 1989 in Japan! My God, those translations took forever back then!

And everyone was playing Pokemon on their Game Boy Color. Ciro was already cheap however, and didn't buy the console despite wanting it, and just played it through his friends handhelds. But maybe this is a good thing. Playing alone sucks.

Ciro once told a friend that his ideal life would be to "just chill out and eat his bread in peace" (while also learning and teaching the sciences). Quote "Omar Khayyam's chill out quote" comes to mind. See also: Ciro Santilli's cheapness.

The most awesome country in the world, except for it's horrible government as of 2019 which Ciro Santilli is trying to replace with democracy.

The most important publisher, AKA "CRC Jianian". TODO meaning of Jianian?

Chinese government owned unfortunately.

Their website takes forever to load: www.china-crc.com.cn/, and features mostly Communist shit, and I can't find the decent traditional music listed there.

One thing to try is an Amazon advanced search by label "China Record Co": www.amazon.com/s?i=digital-music&rh=p_33%3AChina+Record+Co&s=relevancerank&Adv-Srch-MP3-Submit.x=42&Adv-Srch-MP3-Submit.y=4&unfiltered=1&ref=sr_adv_m_digital
