My brief experience and thoughts on headhunters in China
Today I'll talk about headhunters in China. I finished writing this article when I returned to China at the beginning of the year; it was purely a rant about the various bizarre phenomena in the domestic headhunting industry. Later, because I felt good after writing it, I didn't publish it to hurt anyone. After all, the environment in China is a mixed bag, and those who work diligently are still quite good. The reason I'm doing this again…

Three locations in Washington, D.C. have been shortlisted for Amazon's second headquarters – we can now make some bold predictions!
I just saw news that the shortlist of 20 candidates for Amazon's second headquarters has been released (source: CNN). They were selected from 238 cities, and the list isn't too surprising, including all the cities we previously guessed. The city list includes (ranked...)

Let's chat about political topics.
The table tennis incident is quite hot today, and I've been following it through various channels. Overall, it's a battle between the people and officials, and I've gained some insights from it, so I'll presumptuously offer my thoughts on political topics. Firstly, I don't fully understand the situation, not because I don't want to, but because I know its complexity. Official media certainly won't tell the truth, and personally…

Let's talk about the future of autonomous driving
I increasingly feel like I've reached an age where I'm caught in a dilemma. My dreams seem increasingly distant, so I have to resort to roundabout methods. The number of unresolved issues is growing, and I'm facing more and more problems, forcing me to reluctantly give up some things. Student days were so much better! I've recently started reading again; I've hardly read anything since going abroad…

Why I believe esports and competitive sports are completely unrelated
The past few years have been quite remarkable, with internet celebrities, live streaming, and esports all becoming increasingly popular. The first two are products of a certain stage in society, arising from the maturity of internet technology and catering to popular demand. Esports, however, is entirely different. It has a long history, having been wildly popular in China around 2001…

The fault of search engines
It's been a long time since I wrote a comment; the last one was about five years ago. Seeing the Wei Zexi incident linked to search engines and the misleading use of American technology in China—things I frequently encounter—made me want to write something and discuss it with everyone. If this offends anyone, please don't get emotional; I won't delete this blog post…

48 months of OPT? The ideal is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
Tonight, while playing a live game, I saw news about Obama's speech. I was surprised it wasn't broadcast on TV but posted on Facebook; it seems this speech is "targeting the younger generation." I watched it again, and the entire speech was about immigration. It mentioned…

Death is the beginning of new life.
This incident reminded me of 2006, when Pingjing.com, which I had been running for over two years and was at its peak, suffered complete data loss. It took a lot of effort to recover some of the data. Back then, I used my home computer as a server and file recovery tools to recover most of the files. Since it was recovered files, the website asked…

Is this something a human being would do?
It's been a while since I wrote any current affairs commentary, mainly because people used to call me a radical youth, so I've been too embarrassed to say anything more and don't want to explain. You can choose not to care about current events, you can say you have no power to do anything, but as a Chinese person, it will always be closely related to you, even if it's just a small effort to restrain those around you…

Please do not watch today's rant.
I had some things to take care of at home today and didn't want to get involved, especially since I've graduated and shouldn't be concerned with this anymore. However, as someone who experienced it firsthand, there are many things I can't understand. Now, after calming down and thinking about it, I still want to say a few words. Here's what happened: In January of this year, the teacher called a few of us who knew how to build websites together and said we needed to…

Top Ten College Students Voting
These past few days, out of boredom, I've been following the online voting for our university's top ten students and noticed some interesting things. It would be a lie to say I didn't care about the voting results, since I was also nominated. However, aside from sending some spam texts via QQ and Fetion, I didn't think of any other methods. I know my popularity and fame at school aren't quite there yet…

My personal opinion on the Taobao Mall farce
Today I'd like to share my thoughts on recent events on Taobao Mall. Discussion is welcome, but those who just want to vent should stay away. I don't quite understand why Taobao Mall's price increase for shops has caused so much dissatisfaction among small vendors, ultimately leading to a series of "mob" protests…

The warning from the Japanese women's football team—the vicious cycle of Chinese sports.
Early yesterday morning, the Japanese women's national football team defeated the United States to win the World Cup. Seeing this news, my feelings were extremely complex; I didn't dare click to read the detailed report. On one hand, I was very pleased that Asian football had reached the top of the world; on the other hand, I was filled with envy and jealousy. Twelve years ago, the Chinese women's national football team narrowly missed victory in a penalty shootout at the Rose Bowl…

What's so great about 199 gold?
The Asian Games closed last night, with China once again securing the top spot on the medal table with a commanding lead and 199 gold medals. But what's so impressive about 199 gold medals? The purpose of sports is to improve health and fitness; sports should be based on love and interest. But what about Chinese sports today? Two…

What did Kingsoft, Keniu, Baidu, and Aoyou release?
This morning I skipped class to watch the joint press conference of Kingsoft, Keniu, Baidu, and Maxthon. I was deeply moved afterward and wanted to write something to calm my emotions. The war between Tencent and 360 has dragged on to this point, with netizens becoming the biggest victims. Tencent is preventing users from using QQ while using 360, trying to leverage its own strength…
