斯坦福大学教授 伦布克博士说，社交媒体，特别是短视频就是被当作新型毒品来设计的。

首先，它强烈满足了人的掌控欲。
现实生活往往缓慢又混乱，很多事也不受自己控制，但在社交媒体里，你只要滑一下，就能立刻换掉不喜欢的内容。

其次，它催生人的攀比心和连接感。
点赞，评论，粉丝数，转发和无底洞一样的信息流，会让人不停刷新和比较，即使现实里并没有人际往来，大脑也会获得一种自己正在被回应，被连接的感觉。

而且，算法在不断学习你的偏好的同时，还会适当保留一些不确定性，时不时插入一些你没见过的内容，刺激你的好奇心，让你不断滑下去。

还有，短视频本身就是高强度刺激组合，高速移动的画面，鲜艳颜色，高昂的声音全被压缩在很短时间里，视觉和听觉同时被调动，大脑也会更快释放多巴胺。

最近看到的新词叫 情绪冷漠症
意思是平时说话很温柔 表面上开朗乐观 但骨子里却漠然悲观 思考大多数问题都会看的比较通透 任何事都会往最坏的方向想 没有很喜欢的东西 没有很想得到的人 不喜欢热闹的场合 也不喜欢孤独 但又喜欢一个人呆着 周围人都说她性格好 但只有她自己知道 她是个多么冷漠悲观的人

If you pay attention to the patterns in your life, you'll notice that everything always works out. You've survived every difficult situation. You've weathered every storm. So trust the design. The universe doesn't give you what you can't handle; only what you need to grow through

Elon Musk's first wife once described what it's like to watch him fail.

She said he doesn't react the way normal people react. When a rocket explodes, most people in the room go silent. Some cry. Some start calculating the financial damage.

Musk pulls out his phone and starts making calls. Not emotional calls. Engineering calls. "What failed. When can we fix it. When's the next launch." His voice doesn't change. His face doesn't change. The rocket that just cost $60 million is already in the past. The next one is all that exists.

She said it was the most unsettling thing she'd ever witnessed. Not because he was cold. Because he genuinely wasn't affected. The failure didn't register as failure. It registered as data. An experiment that produced results. Results that inform the next experiment.

This is why he wins. Not because he doesn't fail. He fails more spectacularly than anyone in history. He wins because failure occupies zero psychological space. It enters as data and exits as action.

Most people lose not because they fail but because they spend weeks processing the failure before acting again. Musk spends zero seconds. The gap between failure and next attempt is a phone call.

A Venture Fund for the AI Cold War

I’m deeply interested in today’s geopolitics — and I am unapologetically pro-America.

With prior experience in private equity and venture investing, and as a serial entrepreneur, I see a possible business opportunity emerging in America’s AI landscape.

China Captures Talent. America Should Back It
The Manus episode proved that Beijing will reach across borders to claim its ‘talent assets.’ America should not push Chinese-origin AI talent back into those arms. Instead, America should give the best founders a credible third path: build here, raise here, own your upside here — under American law, American capital, and American governance. I am suggesting a fund that turns a geopolitical vulnerability into a venture opportunity and strengthens U.S. AI supremacy at the same time

1. Cap-table hygiene
Help companies avoid PRC state-linked money, ambiguous Hong Kong capital, problematic SAFE-linked structures, or legacy China investor exposure.

2. IP audit
Confirm that IP was developed cleanly, assigned properly, and is not entangled with Chinese universities, labs, employers, state grants, or prior company agreements.

3. Data architecture
Ensure sensitive data is stored, processed, and governed inside trusted jurisdictions.

4. Export-control and CFIUS review
Offer early legal screening so companies do not become uninvestable later.

5. Immigration support
Help founders and key engineers navigate O-1, EB-1, NIW, H-1B, STEM OPT, and green-card pathways.

6. Customer access
Introduce portfolio companies to U.S. enterprise buyers, hyperscalers, government-adjacent customers, defence primes, and strategic corporates where appropriate.

7. Narrative support
Help founders explain who they are:

“I am not a China proxy. I am an American-system founder building with American capital, American governance, and American legal commitments.”

This is enormously valuable. Many founders do not merely need funding. They need to become legible to the American establishment.

I put together a draft investment memo for a venture fund: Open Systems Ventures.

Maybe someone may find it useful — and run with it.

思考决策过程比执行过程同等耗时，甚至复杂。

十分正常。

Thinking is so underrated.

Saw a post on LinkedIn about “How to Decode Chinese Business Communication Etiquette” (written in English). Cracked me up…
Twenty years ago, what people studied was “how to understand American/Japanese business communication conventions” — full of standardized over-generalizations and oversimplified tips.
But China’s regional diversity and sheer human variety are so vast that any text trying to “teach foreigners to decode Chinese business etiquette” ends up so distorted and overfitted it borders on absurd… There’s simply no “lowest common denominator” that can capture the business cultural characteristics across China’s north, south, east, and west.
For instance, they’d never understand why, even after all these years, I still don’t want to pick up any call starting with 010-
