最近，很多人都会开始主动告诉对方自己的人称代词是什么性别，即使是异性恋的顺性别者也是一样。之所以这样，是因为我们不应该默认看上去是男性的人就是一个男性，而应该一视同仁地告知。

In The Flux pinned «https://archive.is/24ARL 今天，仍然以一种“A可以实现B”的口吻来报道技术实在是太不应该了，我们需要关心的是“A在什么条件下可以多么稳定地做到多少B” (if not more specific)。技术是具体的，而不是一种魔法，声称A可以实现B，隐去了技术背后真正有价值的细节，这种表述也常常是误导性。（说起没有细节，这篇报道也没有提研究背后的浙江大学网络空间安全学院任奎团队、加拿大麦吉尔大学与多伦多大学学者团队，只是在最后引用了两篇其他报道。让我们不要忘记，技术是由一些人发展的，…»
今天看了一篇多次入围普利策评论奖的作者写的关于某大咖艺术家回顾展的评论，没尝出啥味道。通篇只有一个有点意思的观点，剩下的就是描述和补充基础信息，而且段落间的联系也挺生硬的。艺术评论今天应该怎样写啊？戴锦华最近的一个采访说，电影评论失效了，它们已经不能引导观众了。从刚刚那篇评论来看，那可不是失效了么，啥引导没有呀。
我最近在想，也许评论得变得更个人化，像是导游，带你走一条没去过的路线，或者分享自己对热门路线的体验。没想清楚……再多点时间吧
（你要是好奇是哪篇评论，可以私信问我）

The analysis of YY and WeChat indicates broad censorship—blocking sensitive terms as well as general information and neutral references—potentially limiting the public’s ability to access information that may be essential to their health and safety.

Unrelated to GCam, but since everyone is talking about the new coronavirus:
The folding at home project (Stanford university) is starting to run simulations about this virus. If you want to donate your computer power, install their app (Windows, Linux, macOS): https://foldingathome.org/start-folding/

Robin Hanson 是个学经济学的，他认为对付nCOV-19可以考虑的一个方案就是：控制暴露——故意让一些人在特定时间暴露在病毒中，并认为这个对总体抗疫工作是有帮助的。他对这个方案的解释在这里，他对这个方案做的模拟模型在这里, datasheet在这里。

What David didn't say is to live for what kind of relationship. because we also see too many people who have been dragged down by bad relationship they couldn't get away from. In China, a nation with huge emphasis on filial piety traditionally, the discussion on so-called "Toxic Parents" is so prevalent in recent years. There are just more variations and options than just living for your ego or relationship.

最近民主黨的候選人都在說自己可以擊敗特郎普，同時「可選性（electability）——放棄自己最青睞的候選者，選擇能凝聚黨內最廣泛支持的——已經成為這次美國總統大選的熱詞。」
這種策略當然有情感方面的合理性，但是只有在「民主黨內自然選出的人和能夠打敗特郎普的人不是同一個人」的時候，纔是一個需要反覆強調並和黨內競爭對手不斷比較的點麼？
這種想法的潛臺詞就是自己是少數派、是不受歡迎的，但是爲了能打敗共和黨，所以要支持自己？反過來講，特郎普的當選給美國政治確實打擊太大，都有心理陰影了。

選民們雖各有心儀的候選人，但特朗普執政的四年卻教會他們一件事——妥協。
對Bernie Sanders的常見反應: I love him. But can he win?
我們從什麼時候開始拋棄愛的人，而轉向強人了呢？我們從什麼時候開始不相信愛人，而相信強人了呢？
