The exam-centric education system always makes us think there’s a perfect answer to everything. Once we adopt this fixed mindset, we tend to believe every problem has an ideal solution. In the market, if a product succeeds, it’s seen as this perfect answer, sparking a rush to copy it. That’s why I often say the overall atmosphere is really unfriendly to the build-in-public approach.

The internet can be terrifying. Once something is exposed, people start digging up all the inappropriate things someone said years or even decades ago to attack them. The difference between a primary school student and a university student is just six years, but their actions and mental states are worlds apart, let alone over a decade. It’s horrifying to judge someone’s past mistakes by today’s standards.

Whenever I’m unsure about something, I just comment “Fake!” or “AI-generated!” right away. That usually prompts people to post more evidence to prove me wrong. Then, I can judge the truth by how much my face “hurts” from the backlash—the more it stings, the truer it likely is. If no one bothers to correct me, it’s probably fake. 🤓

Companies in developed countries are often too detached from their supply chains, which means they really have to focus on building their brands and must think things through thoroughly before executing. Unlike teams in developing countries, they can’t just whip up a prototype on the factory floor and say, “Wow, this is great, let’s get the graphics done tonight and launch tomorrow.”

This situation has created a divide: those who are deep in the thick of the supply chain can’t easily convert that proximity into brand…

I’m developing a parody version of a Souls-like game 😋 meant for YouTube, haha. I’ll craft a story, but keep it a mystery. Imagine this: voice actors speaking a few lines in Old English that might sound like gibberish, all set against epic illustrations. Then, out of nowhere, I toss you into a brutal world where even a tiny bug can finish you off, and I won’t explain why. Super limited save points, death at every turn. Run for 10 minutes straight. Slap on a Souls game label. Can’t wait to see it blow up 🤓.

There’s a rule in the workplace: only if you’re irreplaceable, you won’t get fired. But if you’re always irreplaceable, you’ll never get promoted…If you’re irreplaceable, it means you’re essential for a specific role due to unique skills or knowledge that others don’t have. This makes it risky for the company to promote you out of that position, as finding someone with the same capabilities might be difficult. Thus, being too essential in one role can actually limit your upward mobility.

Just talked to a friend and realized again how much I value the purity of products. I don’t use private APIs, don’t reverse engineer others’ products, and steer clear of anything non-compliant or shady. Not sure when I picked up these principles. Sometimes I think it’s too much, but maybe it’s all for peace of mind?
