One quick point: No matter how different the sizes of different organizations are, they come with different DNAs more or less. Normally, one organization has very limited tolerance towards other DNAs. This alone will kill the new comers. Or

Great to know model/insight difference. You have drawn a clearer line for me, which I always struggled to think it through, even I was quite aware that they are quite different.

I think one of the main advantages of the space internet is it will further take over the control of internet access. Regional rulers have to face a harder time on controlling internet. This will be a huge power to hold. And I guess it may

The closer you get to the power core, the more things you can get. Power is money. power > fiat money. I stopped browsing Tianya for a long time (around 2005/2006). There was another famous thread that is quite similar to this one b

Thank you all for sharing your recommendations. I guess the main reason you got downvotes with this concept is that, in most cases, you have different conclusion/insight from majority's. For this report, it's easier for us to

Any further reading recommendations for concept of "correlation does not imply causation"? I always look for a concise way to describe this (there are just too many reports concluded in this way, I hope I could let others understa

Frankly speaking, it's just "肥水不流外人田" in Chinese, which probably means keeping profitable things in one's own farmland in English. We always presume the higher orders have almost the same goals with the country. However,

Regarding maps and geographical exploration, I agree with you that should be at lower priority. I think start from events happening now such as news is a much better and more efficient way to foster the positive feedback loop. When the time

I planned a tool to combine both timeline and map to be a tool for history exploration. With geography layer and time together, history can be shown in a clearer and impressive way. If one set of those by one user can be called a set. When

"I don’t obsess over competitors. In practice that means that I don’t do any in-depth testing of their apps or services. I feel that would just obscure my vision for the product. Comparing yourself to others too much leads to losing th

Perhaps the large number of new graduates each year has something to do with this. Also, internet is the industry that is on fire these years, which attracts more and more young people. New workforce is always looking to a better position t

People need concrete context to get the knowledge? Most of us start with doing other than having the big picture? Most of tutors need to provide some taste in real world to learners to make them pay since programming is actually very practi

I guess complex adaptive system ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_adaptive_system ) is one of the topics worth exploring. I think some new advanced technologies in programming besides "protocols" among pro

Your app is very simple and nice to use, though I do not take TTC. Nice to see its creator here.

Yes. But it could be less mainstream.

In China's context, real potential trouble makers indicate they are backed by some high level officials(if not the top ones). The more power they have, the more difficult to pull them out. What you said is correct in a more tolerant sy

The interesting part is, in my experience, his famous works in Chinese media are all political ones and I see little art in them, if those can be called true art. Most of what I see are just iconic man doing visual protest in art's nam

Based on my observation of those iconic people in China, I have to say that a sad truth is nearly 100% are performers in media. It took me a long time to accept this. I was looking for some really contemporary thinkers in my nation but fail

Sorry to digress here. Just want to comment on Ai. He is like many other iconic/famous people in the country, who got awards aboard, do things that seem against the ruling party in the country and basically walk away with way less cons

I agree with most of what you said. However, violence can only break the status quo. It does not necessarily lead to a better place, even we do not count the expected ugly process before that. The best ruling party can do is to strengthen t
