我为什么选择了Grab? ——赠29岁生日
前言 这是一篇晚到的文章,早在接完offer后就有动念想写,但是无奈辞职、搬家、签证等等各种事情堆在了一起,憋了很久很久。本想用“我为什么拒绝google,选择了grab”为题来纪念,但随着时间的推移…

ShowerThoughts05 – How to Make Money from the Secondhand Market
Recently, because I'm moving to Seattle, I've been selling things online like crazy and have noticed some interesting phenomena. First, I have to complain about Facebook. Every time I post something, they reply with "Is this available?", which I guess is an automatic suggestion from the system when buyers see the item. Personally, I feel…

The pitfalls of renting a car in Spain
I went to Spain in March to watch Wu Lei vs. Messi, and on a whim, I tried out a car rental service. I used one of those American companies again, but the customer experience, vehicle condition, and after-sales service were worlds apart from what I'd experienced in the US. Even after returning to the US, I received a large, unexplained charge that the American customer service couldn't resolve…

Recruiters are the face of the company – sharing some bizarre experiences
I recently had some free time and did a bunch of interviews at various companies. I had a lot of experience, and since I'm on a plane, I'd like to share it with you. The Importance of the Recruiter: The recruiter and hiring process experience is a very good indicator of a company's quality. As a candidate…

WeChat official accounts, Toutiao, Zhihu columns, and other accounts have been relaunched.
Due to the recent tightening of various policies in China, although this blog doesn't contain any information harmful to the country, I've still been unfairly targeted. To satisfy everyone's curiosity, I've restarted my accounts within China and will be syncing articles to these platforms. Please feel free to follow me (I'll only sync selected articles to WeChat once a month): …

A disastrous experience booking through Booking.com
Those of you living in the US probably know Priceline, which is one of my favorite platforms. I remember consistently finding better prices than elsewhere. However, with the rise of hotel credit cards in recent years, I haven't used it much. This time, I had to book hotels for the team, so I used it again…

Six Years in the Eastern United States – A Tribute to Youth
After the group stage matches ended today, I found a restaurant near the hotel for lunch. While driving, I realized I was on a familiar road—the stadium where I played in my first American East Coast Cup. Although I'd only been there once, it still held a deep impression. In an instant, six years of memories flooded back. 2013, I remember it was a cold, deep…

Several Insights from Watching Taiwanese Political Talk Shows
I've been watching Taiwanese political talk shows every day lately and have come to some realizations, which I'd like to share. The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) and the Kuomintang (KMT) are indeed locked in a fierce struggle. The KMT is like a fallen royal family, embroiled in internal power struggles, while the DPP is like a street thug, resorting to all sorts of underhanded tactics. No wonder a force like Ko Wen-je, a "white force," can rise to prominence; it's a pity his political…

ShowerThoughts04 – Democratic Compromise
I've recently become obsessed with Taiwanese political talk shows, watching them every day like a drama series. Taiwan is a place with extremely extreme politics, and the media's stances are very clear-cut, with blue, green, and even neutral white camps. Even programs that claim to be neutral show obvious biases. And within the blue and green camps, there are further divisions…

ShowerThoughts03 – Online Graveyard
The internet has been around for over 20 years now, and more and more of the original internet users are getting old. Inevitably, everyone will pass away. So, what happens to our internet accounts after we die? Many systems have eviction mechanisms; for example, accounts that haven't been used for a long time are marked as "inactive," and many…

Puerto Rico is gone forever
I returned from Puerto Rico today. Having traveled to many places over the years, this is the first time I've visited a tourist city and felt no urge to return. It's not that it left no impression; on the contrary, the good and bad impressions were very distinct. Puerto Rico is more like a hopeless case, frustratingly underperforming. As a tourist city, my impression of it…

ShowerThoughts02 – Professional Agent
I've been thinking about a problem lately: headhunting these days is mostly company-driven—companies pay headhunters or offer them kickbacks to find talent. But as people become more self-aware, one unavoidable need arises: a disconnect between one's ideal job and their understanding of the market. For example, I might want to find a type A job within a type B…

ShowerThoughts01 – An in-flight chat room
Foreword: Responding to the thoughts expressed at the beginning of the year, "Year After Year"—this series records fragmented "product" ideas. These ideas stem from my own daily needs and are described in brief, immature words. Compared to formal analysis, this series is more like a collection of essays, written as thoughts come to mind, simply for the purpose of…
