  • I went to Nio’s Shanghai store, and I said, “Are you serious?!”

    Tesla Killer? Definitely not now, and outlook not so good. What seems to be working: There is 1 production ready model (ES8) that is almost 50% cheaper than Tesla’s Model X. That’s promising. The car is cool. On paper, it is cool. They have a lot of investors and money. They can definitely raise money.…

  • I went to WeWork, and I finally got it.

    Some co-working space. It’s not because of those industrial looks, cosy sofas and coffee aroma. It’s the people that makes WeWork so successful. “I know people makes a difference but there has to be more…” That’s probably what you are thinking right now.

  • 30 Days with Alipay & Apple Pay (wallet)

    My #1 realization is I am cheap. I have used both of them in the last 30 days. There wasn’t any specific rule so to speak, but I did try to use Alipay as my default in the beginning, because I have been an Apple Pay user for a while. My most common use cases…

  • Apple Said Women Should Work Twice As Hard

    On Twitter Reddit etc some people complained that Apple made women work harder, that Apple was insensitive. I thought it would be good to go through some of the one time challenges, and compare. Some background information: On March 8th, the International women’s day, Apple came out with a workout challenge. Double your move goal,…

  • The Only Way I Might Survive “AI”

    Be more like Alfred the Bulter, and less like Ke Jie the GO world champion. For a low skilled person like me, artificial intelligence, “AI”, will take my job away. I don’t have much hope, but I find thinking through how I might slow down this eventual death, a rather fun one. I started looking…
