Also see The Power of Agency.

And for those who want to pronounce Qiaochu's name correctly in their heads when reading his username, I think it's "Chow-chew."

Is it Mandarin? I would say it sort of like "Chee-ow choo". We also need some tones & the 汉字 for good measure.

Yep. "Qiao" is second tone and "chu" is third tone. The characters are 翘楚.
