Wuhan later realized the problem that you cannot build ICU rooms as fast. But what is actually need is isolation. They turned stadiums into huge hospitals for those mid-age non-urgent positives. At least they are not spreading viruses to fa

Zuo Zhuan is an awesome book with lots of stories about strategic thinking. The writing style is also very succinct and quite pleasant to read (require knowledge about classic Chinese for sure). One good example is the following piece which

Watched the adapted anime piece in China on TV when I was a kid. Deeply moved and I even used a cassette recorder to record the finale music from the speaker. I would say it may not be a complex story but the feeling just conveyed really we

Well, actually Google search engine "outages" are fairly common, they are just less visible. Examples: Single data center outage: Search -> load balancers handle that just fine Cloud -> zone or sub-zone outage Backend failur

I don't think there's any problem here. Nothing lives forever and YT is not PG&E, it may shutdown and never return. Similar things happened before, e.g., MSN Spaces, myspaces, etc. It's actually a good thing to say this u

I don't think it means that in Chinese. However I agree it is not a decent name. 金 = gold/golden, 玉 = jade, 鹅 = goose Usually the more chars resembling wealth in your name, the less educated family you may be from. Basically it ju

Ok, now WH is exploring all creative (and unprecedented) ways to fight against China. I have to say this seems to have crossed a lot of boundaries, either clear or vague ones. And we've also seen WH is doing similar things (though at a

I actually never understood that case. For Uber, drivers are not employed and treated as contractors. For Google, chefs are employed by another company (food services), which has contracts with Google. And also treated as contractors. I thi

Politics aside. While seeming scary, this kind of device is actually widely deployed in China, especially in schools. It proves to be very effective for police use: 1. Dull tipped, won't penetrate bodies. 2. While in use, no direct bod

Agreed. It can be found easily in markets in my hometown (just off the coast, east of China). And it's my favorite dish. Our style is just cutting them into noodles and make it salad. https://www.google.com/search?q=%E5

Still using Dremel SQL occasionally and I tend to agree that certain things are easier in Dremel SQL. But it's a canonical example of continuously applying convenient patches making things worse. While something is easier to write, exp

I personally also don't buy in the latter. But performance and consistency do play a role in making serious choices. I also agree that they should share some cost analysis results.

Go to the South Bay or the east Bay, that's where the new generation of Chinese work and live. SF's China Town doesn't matter much now. Similar to LA's, where most good Chinese restaurants are outside Chinatown.
