Life = Read + Think + Write
Till today, I realize, the apps on pc or phone aren't my choice for noting and planning my daily life.
Now I choose to use paper and whiteboard.
Here is a list of my booklist in April:
Actually there are more than this list, however, only these leave me a great impression.
Here, instead of talking the content of these books, I like to share some of my practice.
When I'm solving problems in real life, I tend to use the so-call First Principle.
When using electronic device, I will set the clear usage for this device(or that). Like, my laptop is for scheduling, coding and reading. Phone is served like shopping, social and so on. This mindset save me a lot of time.
When I'm talking with other, I'll try to be simple and easy-understanding. Of course, before I speak, I will try to think a bit. But well, it takes time to practice.
Writing is a problem, cause I've never receive any formal English writing education out of school. Maybe later I'll take one or so.
The Books in May on the way~
Recently I'm fuzzing with some cloud development platform, such like CodeCanvas, Gitpod, Coder. I had tried deployed each of them on AWS, eventually leave me a big trouble.
Yesterday I checked my AWS app for billing info, suddenly found that the bill was jump from $1 which is two day ago, to $14!
I have already terminate those services, but might not for the AWS resources themselves!
Quickly referred to support, I was told there were still tons of service from four regions that I need to terminate, if I wanted to rise a ticket for the wrong billing issues.
Then! Yesterday, from 6 pm to 11 pm, I was deleting those *** resources and kept telling myself how idiot I am!
But the good news is, at least I know how many and what the AWS resources are.
As a programmer in China, you have to know how to use network proxy.
I've use Clash for five years or so, and till now, the proxy providers I've used are below(from new to old):
Actually I don't feel they are too much differences while using, and I don't recommend the readers choose one of these without brain.
Every Friday afternoon just a doom state for me.
My brain keep telling me: “you are free after 5 hours!”
I keep telling it: “shut up! you foolish! I love working!”
My blog language change back to English, cause I feel hard when I have to switch the input method back and forth...
I couldn’t stand how terrible my JavaScript skills were, so I decided to copy a Snake game to get more familiar with it.
There was a period when I finished writing the function main() and kept running into issues. After looking at the source code, I realized the problem: I didn't know I needed to call main()...
The snake ate the candy, but the game logic seems to have some problems…
from 2025.5.16
– Have no business with the game logic, I forgot adding score in html file.
– I know how to debug the game! Directly debug the html file and all that good.

In early March, I gathered a few recent graduates from Kehua to participate in a hackathon on Devpost. After two days of effort, we completed a video project.
Aside from the voiceover, most of the work was done by Xiao Du.
My feelings are quite mixed. While I'm very passionate about hackathons, the others were more like recruits I brought along and weren't particularly interested. Additionally, we faced frequent issues due to language barriers and time zone differences.
Nevertheless, I learned a lot from the experience.
High School: Used paper and pen; no blog.
Freshman & Sophomore Year: Notability and other iPad drawing apps; Wordpress was also pretty good.
Junior & Senior Year, and into working: Switched between paper and pen, Notion, Obsidian, SiYuan, OneNote; self-hosted, Twitter, telegra.ph, Obsidian Post, Notion Publish – all over the place.
Now: I don’t take notes anymore, it’s so annoying – I just write blogs!
