Why is there a random Kanji/whatever-Asian-letter/word randomly thrown into the mix? Not that the formula itself actually means anything to me.

Probably wrong text format (example: the slides were made with a software using a certain UNICODE table and were then interpreted with a different one). That was supposed to be a single or double arrow, could be either.

I can't find that on my kanji lookup program. Closest I can get by inspecting radicals is 威, which is basically the same but without the 口 part on the left side.

威 


But yeah, like Gan said, probably just a text encoding glitch thing :/

that's why i said it's a fail

and it's supposed to be a single arrow a double arrow wouldn't make sense when it's about the potential.

oh and the kanji or whatever that is also swallowed the N of NADH.

All together it's not a big deal, it's easy to figure out with a little common sense, but still. i assume that it happened when they turned the ppt into a pdf, but a little double check wouldn't hurt.

It's about principal, like the weird assistant who changed EVERY "s" into a "z" in the ppts because thez thought it was correct...all the first years use our old lectures because it's so annozing

This tale of the Ever-Exploding China honestly sounds like a ridiculously exaggerated comedy-skit. Because yeah, exploding COINS has got to count as a real-life example of a truly Epic Fail.

I call bullshit, someone probably made up this one imho  :face-rofl. I simply can't see any reason for such an idiotic thing to happen in real life, besides, you know, Baroque Works' Mr. 5 working in the coinage or something. And wait, that has nothing to do with real life anyway.

Maybe it was a chemical reaction caused by the use of some questionable material in the manufacturing process that later reacted with the environment, causing the coins to explode. Or maybe they just use watch batteries as currency.

No, really, of all the questionable materials you can use in manufacturing processes, WHY exploding ones? I mean, one thing is being stingy, one thing is being PURPOSEFULLY HARMFUL.

Also, being stingy on coins is the stupidest thing ever. Coining money ensures you a certain seigneurage profit. Even though coins sometimes have negative seigneurage, I'm pretty sure China can make it up with notes (I expect them to have a state-owned national bank). So, why such idiocy? To spare a few cents for every half-a-Yuan?
