@KaiserKuo @haugejostein Arguments were made in favor of Yang Xiaokai before his untimely passing. Had he won it, it would have marked the culmination of one of the most legendary lives to emerge from the Cultural Revolution era.

@DrDuncanBell As a useful text, let's say. I read your telepathic piece and decided that I want to include this text in a future syllabus on Literature and Revolution.

Lead with work, not identity. Show up for the boring parts of labor work: mapping, follow-up calls, grievance support, contract turnout, logistics, note-taking, translation, rides, food, childcare, and the endless one-on-one conversations that build confidence and structure.

This is the best profiling of the Silicon Valley Chinese I've ever read.

[Tianyu Fang @tianyuf]

This article by @violazhouyi @restofworld is a great ethnography of Chinese engineers in Silicon Valley. If anything, I only regret that it doesn’t mention credit card and airline points

Why is China pouring resources into the study of Plato, Thucydides & Cicero? Is it a geopolitical play to sever ancient Greece from the modern West — making Aristotle a civilizational ally while keeping John Stuart Mill at arm's length? Or is something more complicated, and more interesting, going on? I sat down with @Changxche to find out. 🎙️👇

Thanks to Simon Luo for hosting me for a PPGA Seminar at Nanyang Technological University on pre-1945 Japanese Sinology and China. And what a beautiful campus it is (even that beehive shaped building)
