A Malaysian tour group visiting Xi’an, China, has been criticised online after ordering about 1,200 parcels via Taobao to their hotel, causing a large pile-up in the lobby.

The travel agency shared a now-deleted video on Xiaohongshu showing hotel staff struggling to sort and distribute the parcels to group members.

Piece of advice: if you are a parent, watch out what the Finns are doing and copy them. It's one of the few countries that pays closer attention to their youth. They observe, study, and adjust all the time!

For example, they are now gradually reversing their decade-long, tech-heavy education model to combat declining cognitive performance and severe classroom distractions. Schools are scaling back on devices in favor of printed textbooks, handwriting instruction, and pen-and-paper assignments.

I went to a small coffee shop in Shimokitazawa every morning for a week. By the third day, the barista started making my order as soon as I walked in.

On the fourth day, something different happened. She brought my coffee in a specific mug - bright blue ceramic with a chip on the handle.

I didn't think much of it until the next day. Same mug. And the day after that. Same mug.

On my last day, I asked her about it. She said "ah, you noticed. That is your cup now."

I said, "What do you mean by my cup?" She said "regulars get their own cup. I remember which cup belongs to which person. Your cup is the blue one."

I'd only been there five days. I said I'm not really a regular, I'm leaving Tokyo tomorrow. She looked surprised. "Oh. But you came every day at the same time, ordered the same thing. That is regular."

She said "I thought you lived in the neighborhood. I gave you a cup on the third day."

I asked what happened to my cup now. She said "I will keep it for you. Maybe you will come back someday. Your cup will be waiting."

I asked if she really keeps cups for people who might never come back. She said "yes. I have many cups in the back. Cups of people who moved away, people who changed jobs, people who maybe died. But their cups are still here."

"When someone becomes regular, they become part of the shop. Even if they leave, they still belong here."

I went back to Tokyo six months later. Went to that coffee shop. She saw me walk in and smiled. Went to the back and brought out the blue mug with the chip.

"Welcome back," she said. "Your cup missed you."

We have spent years being told it is “just a period problem” while our skin, our weight, our mood, and our energy were all falling apart. Today, the medical world finally admitted you were right.
PCOS is now PMOS.

The strictest eater in your friend group decides where everyone eats. Now run that dynamic at population scale. A 20% Muslim population costs non-halal restaurants 40% of their sales.

Halal eaters are restricted to halal-certified venues. Non-halal eaters face no such restriction. That asymmetric constraint is the entire mechanism, and Taleb gave it a name: the dictatorship of the small minority.

Run the math on a 4-person dinner group when 20% of the local population is Muslim. The probability at least one person at the table is halal-only is 1 minus 0.8^4, or roughly 59%. So 59% of group dinners default to halal even when only 20% of individual diners are Muslim. The 40% sales hit actually understates the group-dining effect.

The same renormalization runs everywhere once you see it. Most US orange juice carries OU kosher certification. Tropicana, Minute Maid, Simply. Roughly 1-2% of Americans keep kosher, but maintaining a parallel non-kosher production line costs more than certifying the whole plant. Coca-Cola produces a Passover-kosher recipe with sugar instead of corn syrup (the yellow-cap bottles) for less than 1% of buyers. Peanut-allergic kids are 1-2% of any classroom and US elementary schools went peanut-free anyway.

The pattern: whoever serves the most-constrained customer captures the optional majority by default.

"Optionality is a moat" is the most important rule in operator strategy. Every product decision is really a question of whose constraint is hardest to violate. Build for that one. Everyone else follows.

يا بنات: مكان تخزين الدهون يعطيك “معلومة” ، مو مجرد جينات سيئة.

· أسفل البطن = مقاومة إنسولين
· أعلى البطن = ارتفاع الكورتيزول
· الأرداف والفخوذ = زيادة تأثير الإستروجين

وهذي طريقة التعامل مع كل سبب من الجذور 👇

She was born the seventh of nine children in Kuantan.

Her father was a public servant who got transferred all over the country, so she grew up moving between small towns.

Her mother never finished school. But her mother worked harder than anyone she knew, and believed education was everything.

That belief sent Swee Lay Thein to medical school at Universiti Malaya. She graduated in 1975.

Then she moved to the UK and spent the next 20 years chasing one stubborn question. Why do some patients with blood disorders suffer terribly, needing transfusions their whole lives, while others barely feel sick?

The answer was hidden in a gene. Babies are born producing a special kind of hemoglobin that protects them. Then the body flips a switch and stops making it.

Swee Lay wanted to know what controlled that switch. If you could keep it on, you could save millions of lives.

It took her decades. She travelled across the UK collecting blood samples from families. She flew to Malawi to study a single family with 270 members across seven generations. She hit dead ends. She kept going.

In 2007, she and her team found the gene. They called it BCL11A.

That discovery led to Casgevy, the first FDA-approved CRISPR therapy for sickle cell disease and beta-thalassemia. A real cure. Already changing real lives around the world.

Last month, Dr Swee Lay Thein stood on a stage in Los Angeles and accepted the Breakthrough Prize, often called the Oscars of Science.

She is the first Malaysian-born scientist to ever win it.
In her speech she said, "As a child hanging out with my older brothers, playing on old railway tracks in Malaysia, I never imagined being here today."

She dedicated the moment to her mother. The woman who never finished school.

A girl from Kuantan. A mum who believed in education even though she never got one herself. A daughter whose work is now saving lives around the world.

That is a Malaysian story.

Tahniah, Dr Swee Lay Thein. We see you. We are proud. 🇲🇾

Did you ever wonder… why it’s called Surah Al-Baqarah —The Cow?

This is the longest chapter of the Qur’an that contains law, justice, fasting, economy, identity…

WHY A COW?

Today when we were trying to leave the library I struggled because my 4 yr old was having a nice time with two other little girls.

She said, "I am NOT leaving." And then one of the little girls gentle nudged her and said softly, "listen to your mom" and the other little girl said, "I'm sorry you have to leave. Maybe we will see you again soon. Goodbye."

And my daughter lost all stubbornness, gave a pitiful wave and goodbye and left without any issue.

The two dads of the girls had to hide their amusement.

And I left thinking to myself how sometimes the village who helps raise your child is other good little children.

There's a flower shop in Shibuya that opens at 5am. Seemed random so I asked the owner why so early.

She said she used to work as a nurse on night shifts. I would get off at 6am and every flower shop was closed. She wanted to buy flowers for herself after hard shifts but couldn't.

When she quit nursing and opened her own shop, she decided to open at 5am. "For all the night shift workers who want to buy themselves flowers."

I asked if she gets many customers that early. She said not many. Maybe three or four a morning. Sometimes none.

"But when someone does come in at 5am to buy flowers, I know they need them. The night shift is hard. Everyone deserves flowers after a hard night."

She said her favorite customer is a guy who comes in every Friday at 5:30am, buys a single rose. She asked him once who it's for.

He said "myself. I'm a security guard. Work all night at an office building. The rose sits on my dashboard while I drive home. Reminds me I did good work, even if nobody saw it."

She told me that story and started crying. "People don't buy themselves flowers enough."

I bought myself flowers that day. First time ever.

The cheat code for staying in Malaysia long-term isn't where you think it is.

It's in Sarawak.

The De Rantau visa (West Malaysia's digital nomad pass) has been a popular program. So popular that wait times have gotten long. If you've been sitting in that queue, here's something worth knowing.

Sarawak quietly launched their own version. The Sarawak De Rantau pass. And it's legit awesome.

Here's what it gives you:
•⁠ You get access to the whole of Malaysia, not just Sarawak. Live in KL, work from @ns in Johor, base yourself wherever you want. The pass covers the whole country.
•⁠ The physical Sarawak requirement? Only 3-5 days. You go once to collect the permit endorsement, then you're free to be anywhere in Malaysia.
•⁠ Processing time is 6-8 weeks from submission - which is competitive right now.

Who qualifies:
•⁠ Tech talent with a minimum USD 24,000/year income from an overseas employer or overseas clients. That covers software development, AI, blockchain, cybersecurity, UI/UX, machine learning, digital marketing, and creative content work.
•⁠ Your income has to come from outside Malaysia. If you start deriving income locally, tax residency rules kick in - get proper tax advice before you do that.
•⁠ The dependent pass covers spouses and children. Work permission is for the main applicant only - spouse cannot work on this visa.

What it costs going direct to SDEC:
•⁠ Roughly RM 2,500 in total application fees (SDEC processing + visa levies + personal bond, which is refundable on exit). You don't need an agent - you can apply directly to SDEC.

Why this matters for @solana Network State builders:
•⁠ NS is in Forest City, Johor - West Malaysia. If you want to stay at NS long-term, you need a visa that lets you do that legally and cleanly.
•⁠ The Sarawak De Rantau pass does exactly that. You fly to Kuching once, collect your endorsement, fly back, and you're set. Builders who want to plant here for months, stay focused on shipping, and not deal with the uncertainty of visa renewals - this is the cleanest path I've seen.

@superteam set up a year-long builder base here with @SuperteamMY. The visa situation should match that ambition.

Sarawak - quietly the cheat code🦧

Social cue tip: when people start acting weird towards you and you can't recall anything happening between y'all to warrant a change in behavior — it's because they talk about you behind your back or they hang out with people who talk about you. It's not because you've done something wrong that you didn’t realize.

I told myself I was keeping my last name after marriage because I’d already built my whole career with it.
I already had degrees, certificates and years of professional reputation attached to mine.
Then I met a man whose surname was “Cash.”
The opportunity to walk into meetings and introduce myself saying, “Hi, I’m Ms. Cash from accounting,” was simply too powerful to ignore.
