When this is all over,
The disease will dissipate,
The economy will recover,
But the world order will be very different.

This is the best time to be an Asian American.
Half a century before, it was better to be an American.
Half a century after, it would better to be an Asian.

Analogy of blog versus social network

Social networks are like loud parties, blogs are like quiet libraries.

I write on my blog for those of you who like to take a look, and I won’t bother shout out to people on social networks.

Satoshi-Nakamotoism

Aside from rare exceptions like Steve Jobs or Albert Einstein, people usually do not care who is behind an invention or discovery.
(As a quick experiment, can you name the Nobel Prize winners in the most recent year, especially if you are not working in the related fields?)

Thus, I would prioritize our outcomes over our egos for publicity.

Devil in the house

You brought a devil into the house
It wants to leave
And takes your flesh

So just let it go

Teach yourself and your offspring well
So that none would not be fooled by the devil

Exercise your discipline
To await the devil to destroy itself

If you want to lure it back
Better yourself is the only way

Napolean Bonaparte is said to be short.
I did not realize that he is about my height until today.
