One essay Jacques Derrida submitted on Shakespeare, written in English, received a 10 out of 20. The feedback from Derrida’s instructor will sound very familiar to perplexed readers of his work. “Quite unintelligible,” writes the evaluator in one marginal comment. The main comment at the top of the paper reads in part:
In this essay you seem to be constantly on the verge of something interesting but, somewhat, you always fail to explain it clearly. A few paragraphs are indeed totally incomprehensible.
德里达提交的一篇关于莎士比亚的英文论文，得了10/20的分数。老师的评语是，“你似乎总能贴到某些有趣东西的边儿，但又总是无法清晰地将其展开，有些段落甚至是完全无法理解的。”

the US filmmakers Jimmy Ferguson and Catherine Gubernick find inspiration in close-proximity urban disconnection and the impulse to craft narratives about the hidden lives of passersby in Between Strangers(2019).
the man contemplates the somewhat paradoxical anonymity of crowded commuter trains, subways cars and city streets. In particular, he reflects on the experience of having seen, but never having spoken to, a man he commuted alongside for some 15 years.
Although heads are captured buried in phones throughout, the film spares the viewer an overwrought or clichéd scolding on our modern lack of connection, but that solitude and alienation predate the smartphone.
Navigated without judgment or an agenda, Between Strangers interrogates the ‘instinctive decision just to remain strangers’ – an experience that, while often unspoken or even uncontemplated, will nonetheless, for many viewers, be profoundly familiar.

Uber 刚刚进入中国的时候，陌陌的唐岩曾经开着一辆宾利去接单。
这就是 Travis Kalanick 创办 Uber 的初衷：为闲置供给对接需求，并促进交流。Uber 不只是一个打车软件，更是一个人与人之间互相帮助的「社区」，不是来赚你那几个臭钱的。
到 2015 年，第一批「全职网约车司机」出现，有人开始不满意了。当时 IT 公论讨论过这件事。
某种程度上，移动互联网时代这一批创业者，都并不知道「真实世界」的全貌。孙正义的钱太好拿了。
但他们的公司，想做大规模，都必须进入「真实世界」。

终于……终于开始在中文推特圈里看到一些不一样的、更丰富的内容了。更多的人开始只是把推特当成一个更加自由的发表平台，而不是带着某种预设目的来运营帐号了。那些几十、几百粉丝的帐号都是更加鲜活也更有意思的人。

‘The Voyage of the Mimi,’ in other words, spent $3.65 million for the purpose of using media in exactly the manner that media merchants want them to be used-mindlessly and invisibly, as if media themselves have no epistemological or political agenda. And, in the end, what will the students have learned?
「媒介——印刷品、广播、电视、游戏——不是中性的，这可以说是 Postman 穷一生精力试图说明的问题。原本用来说明使用公帑时应该仔细考虑不同媒介会鼓励什么样的认知与思考方式的一段话，在中信版里读起来有如仇富的打火石。不管这一漏译背后的原因是什么，它都让我想起直到今天，依然有为数不少的人认为微信没有错，是妳的使用方法有错。好在虽然今天人们仍然心不在焉地「刷」着微信朋友圈、小红书和抖音，主张「正念」（mindfulness）的人也与日俱增。至于媒介不中立这一点，恐怕连喊出「大幹快上，摧枯拉朽」口号的 Facebook 行政总裁也渐渐学懂了。」

🎂 As I am turning 37, I put together a list of 3 undervalued and 7 overvalued things in life.
3️⃣ Undervalued
1. Sleep. Sleep gives a boost to immunity, creativity and psychological well-being.
2. Nature. Nature is the environment that we are biologically designed to feel good in.
3. Solitude. Being alone offers the freedom to make spiritual and intellectual breakthroughs.
7️⃣ Overvalued
1. Big cities. Big cities are sources of pollution, crime and noise. It's good to have access to their resources, but advisable to live outside their borders.
2. Restaurants. Restaurants offer the slowest and least efficient way to eat. Cooking at home allows for healthier diets and more control over ingredients.
3. Hot weather. Sunny weather can bring about not only a lax attitude, but also a risk of cancer and faster aging. Colder temperatures, on the contrary, clarify spirit, body and mind.
4. Fashion. The endless quest to conform with ever-changing trends is expensive and unnecessary. Focusing on comfortable clothes makes life simpler and frees space for things that matter.
5. Real estate. Buying real estate often limits one's choices and is a questionable investment. Renting gives more freedom to move and explore different locations.
6. Social media. The incessant flow of junk cluttering our minds from social media decreases our happiness and creativity. Disconnecting from these internet services is the best thing we can do on any given day.
7. Celebrity advice. Famous people often give unwarranted advice outside their fields of expertise. For all important things in life, it's best to rely on hard science and expert opinion.

因为iOS更新后的app行为监测功能，让更多人看到了我们常用的app在我们背后做了啥，比如微信访问用户相册、淘宝保存相册到它自己的本地文件夹，支付宝滥用位置API……并引发了民众巨大的不满。所以，中国人不是不关心隐私。正常人都关心。问题只是，我们怎么才能让自己看到，怎么才能让自己有能力去回应，怎么才能找到反抗的力量。
