The environment is getting worse, not just the pandemic.

Does this mean that the trade war ended but the financial war is coming?

And is this realistic? As some companies are even listed in the US exchange, like China Telecom and China Mobile, which are dominant state monopoly in China btw.

Let's hope this time it'll work. We human beings have long time suffering, losing hope to battles, and false hope for dictatorships. But we are always progressing.

Learned a lot from this video. You heard all kinds of voice from several level of masks, and your inward voice through your bones, not air. But magically there is the inner voice, maybe you can't really hear your own voice because your brain filters it. And you can hear your silence thought when you are reading.

Surprisingly, why I am not surprised?

US politics is really fun. Sometimes it's spectacular, sometimes it's nasty. Sometimes it's full of hope, sometimes it's full of anxiety. This year I learnt something new: win the popular votes, but lose the electoral. It's interesting.

This shit blocks every apps failed to open? Bad practice, apple! Do you know that the Internet has divided into two parts, the Internet and the Chinese intranet? So confident that you think Chinese ISPs won't mess the route up?

Back to privacy issue, well I dont have any problem about that, because I don't have privacy at all. Welcome to China.

Since October of 2012, Apple is a partner in the US military intelligence community’s PRISM spying program, which grants the US federal police and military unfettered access to this data without a warrant, any time they ask for it. In the first half of 2019 they did this over 18,000 times, and another 17,500+ times in the second half of 2019.

This is very interesting. Be sure, US citizens, that this kind of information stays in the US, not grabbed by any country other than US military. Otherwise you will be a surveillance state, too.

Great, I should give it a try. Maybe adding some robots here is a good idea. Such as an auto answering robot, or a remind me later robot...

Pals, I am proud to tell you that Dictionariez v2.4.0 has published.
Well, chrome version is still under Google's review, as always lagged behind Firefox. But Firefox version and local crx file is ready to use now.

So what do you think? Tell me your opinions and suggestions, I desperately need them.

God first made the promise to Abraham (Genesis 15:18–21):

On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram and said, "To your descendants I give this land, from the Wadi of Egypt to the great river, the Euphrates— the land of the Kenites, Kenizzites, Kadmonites, Hittites, Perizzites, Rephaites, Amorites, Canaanites, Girgashites and Jebusites."

The Promised Land, Obama's new book, a memoir that discover history and give hope to the future. Looking forward to it, highly recommend.

Saw this on reddit at a lonely sleepless night. It's well written, quite easy to understand. I have been using Anki for a year now, it has really helped me a lot.

So this shit has being going for a while now, I wonder what's happened really, and what impact will it cause. The dust has not been settled yet, let's see.

Although some nasty news has been traveling around apple recently, such as privacy issue and new MacOS's glitch. But this new M1 chip seems really rocking. Some even call it a revolution...

Let's watch a series of highly recommended videos:

Well written, both the article and the code. A little bit spoiler, I am also working on Spotify...

This is brilliant. Since death is uncertain, how can we predict it? We can't, but we can calculate the probability based on large data of WHO health observation and CDC's life expectation data...

To understand it need some cultural background: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_Man

Highly recommend. Lost Course is a promising documentary on the crisis of Wukan, a rural fishing village of China whose villagers protested massively against the central govt.

The only film that records a chronicle about mainland China in Taiwan, something gets more and more rare to see in nowadays.

Some background info here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wukan

Nice. Reminds me of a tv series by David Schwimmer:

So the new Cold War is based on technology. China Digital Currency is not just centralized, which is totally the opposite of block chain, but also the world's biggest surveillance tool, has the potential of competing with SWIFT. Who said China is not creative?
