Tahaundam

Tahaundam (also spelt as Dahangdan) is the northernmost village inhabited year round by ethnic Tibetans of northern Kachin State, in extreme northern Myanmar (formerly Burma). The village, at an elevation of 1200 m, is surrounded by snow-capped mountains, rising to the highest peak of Myanmar, Mt. Hkakabo Razi at 5880 m.[1] Tahaundam is briefly described by the WCS.[2] Between Tahaundam and Nogmung are several smaller villages with local ethnic groups (e.g., Lisu, Rawang).

gollark: > 1. Performance penalties.> [some rambling about C++].NET is generally pretty much *fast enough*. If your application somehow hits performance bottlenecks, rewrite the slow bits in native code, don't just immediately take a development speed hit.> 2. Need to interoperate with C++ / Native (Windows) API’sI don't know how often you actually need to bind to a native API not wrapped by .NET or a third-party library, but you can do it, it's just annoying - but probably less than using C++ for everything!
gollark: This is outrageous pro-C++ anti-C# propaganda.
gollark: I have dreams occasionally, but they're stupid.
