Good topic.
My vote goes to Week 10 [11.01-17.01] "Upload your mind." I got totally hooked on Kurzgesagt videos thanks to this post. Thank you Bartek, you made my leisure time interesting and even kind of productive.

My vote goes to the article
Week 4 [16.11-22.11] Renewable energy - modern wind farms – could be better?
Very interesting one, good preparation from the author, and a lot of informations provided. I would really recommend this one.
My vote goes for https://konwersatorium1-ms-pjwstk.blogspot.com/2021/01/week-10-1101-1701-how-to-achieve-your.html
The reason is that it was probably the best talk I have ever listened to on TED. This was both very motivational and interesting because both the story and the achievements of the author were astonishing. It also describes the problems we seem to ignore nowadays, that we assume people just because of their grades at school. Last thing - the whole method of starting doing something from small steps appeals to me since I was already doing it like that.
I had to search through plenty of posts to find this one, as it was one of the first presentations on our blog. In my opinion, the best presentation was from Week 2 with the title "Food of the gods" prepared by Justyna Woźniak.

Although the topic of chocolate may seem quite common, the article shed light on all aspects of this popular confection and pushed me to explore this subject further. The presentation was prepared very carefully with much thoroughness. The author provided us with the biography of the cocoa beans, and moving thought the cultural attachments to its usage in native cultures, we received a very detailed description of the chocolate-making process. I loved the fact that the author herself prepared a video, illustrating this process. Aside from the 'sweet' side of the chocolate industry, we could also learn about the dark side of it and its effect on poor communities. Furthermore, the presentation was nicely moderated, as with the author's fast responses I felt like we were talking in real life. Justyna's recommendations really made me eager to try something new. Overall, the presentation was thoughtfully carried out and reading it has lightened up my day.
My vote goes to Mysterious monoliths from week 9. I like the topic and I still think about it.
I'm voting for the week 4 presentation about ANC Active Noise Canceling Headphones. Thanks to this presentation, I bought probably the best thing of the last 5 years. I did not expect these headphones to be so perfect
I vote for Week 3 [09-15.11.20] Singapore's jewel, because don't know it and after read this article I want to see this airport.

I really enjoyed Filip's article - "Week 11 [18.01-24.01] The savage mountain. K2.". Mountains and climbing are subjects I'm really interested in.

During this semester a lot of interesting articles and video materials appeared on the blog. Choosing the best one is not at all easy!

I cast my vote on Week 2 [02-08.11.20] Food of the gods - by Justyna Woźniak.
It was a pleasure to read, considering that Justyna is no stranger to work in the production of chocolate. I'm glad she shared her experience with us and added a video of the production process.
I'd like to cast my vote on "Week 3 [09-15.11.20] Some games are just too expensive". It mentions a very interesting and perhaps unknown to some of the readers beforehand topic. The questions are well put, in such a way that make you have a distinct answer and make thinking about and replying to them a pleasure. It is a absorbing read regardless of your previous experience with the topic. The vocabulary and grammar both are on a very high level, with no discernable mistakes. Overall I'd say it is examplary presentation.
I really enjoyed Week 12 [25.01.21-31.01.21] Do We Live in a Simulation? presentation, because I'm really into this kind of weird theories about the universe, and there were a lot of interesting ideas in the presented video.

My vote goes to Justyna Wożniak and her presentation from Week 2 [02-08.11.20]-Food of the gods. Her post was not only interesting but also full of amazing insights.
My vote goes for Week 7 [7.12 – 13.12] Why is the CD Projekt releasing Cyberpunk 2077 instead of The Witcher 4? made by Adrian Zygo. I really enjoyed this topic and found this presentation very interesting.

My vote goes to "Some games are just too expensive" presentation. I enjoyed it not only because I played Magic: The Gathering when I was in high school, but also because it's really well written. I think that it deserves the title of this semester's best presentation.
In my opinion a presentation from week 11 "Digital nomad lifestyle" was the most interesting one this semester. It made me aware of the fact that something that I was thinking about for a long time has a specific name and it encouraged me to give it a try myself.

Week 11 [03-09.06.2019] The problem with ecological cars emission in UK

The problem with ecological cars emission in UK Since the adoption of the European Emission Allowance Directive in the European Parliament, all car makers have tried to submit. Since 1992, the Euro I standard has been in force, which limited the emission of carbon monoxide to the atmosphere. The Euro VI standard currently applies, which limits the series of exhaust gases. These include: hydrocarbons, nitrogen and carbon oxides, and dust.   The most significant change was brought by the Euro IV standard. For the first time it introduced the limitation of nitrogen oxides, which are responsible for the harmful compounds of smog.   What is smog?   Smog consists of sulfur oxides, nitrogen and carbon. In addition, solid substances such as suspended dust (PM). Dust suspend in atmospheric aerosols may be in liquid and solid form. These can be particles of sea salt, clouds from the Sahara and artificial compounds made by people. These compounds often come fr

Week 12 (12.01-18.01.15) Are you an early bird or a night owl ?

Owls are nocturnal creatures. They’re wide awake at night and they sleep during the day. If this sounds like bliss to you, then, like about 20 percent of the population who find themselves most active at around 9 pm, you may fall into the same category as our feathered friend. Night owls often have difficulty waking up in the morning, and like to be up late at night.  Studies of animal behaviour indicate that being a night owl may actually be built into some people’s genes. This would explain why those late-to-bed, late-to-rise people find it so difficult to change their behaviour. The trouble for night owls is that they just have to be at places such as work and school far too early. This is when the alarm clock becomes the night owl’s most important survival tool. Experts say that one way for a night owl to beat their dependence on their alarm clocks is to sleep with the curtains open. The Theory is that if they do so, the morning sunlight will awaken them gently and naturally.
