Are you investing or gambling?

Life has certain errors and events (negative) that can drastically change our lives for the worse. I observe life and share these tips for you to avoid 1. Various Types of Traffic AccidentsGetting into a moderate to severe accident can make life several times harder. To experience this, try living in a wheelchair for a bit. Or try doing everything with one hand or no hands. Or lie in bed unable to move. A 7 to 10-day trial will show you how much harder the game gets. And this is just a demo -...

The mother of all biases is the bias of self-interest.

Reflecting on it, making a good, accurate, and precise decision, judgment, or insight is a very difficult task that requires the following fundamental elements: Experience - Life Experience (or work experience or involvement in a certain field) A strong ethical foundation. This is crucial but rarely mentioned when discussing the components of intelligence. To put it simply, having solid ethics usually means choosing the long-term over the short-term. One tends to view things in accordance wit...

Funny meme. Hahaha (But the content of this post is not funny at all, huhuhuhu.)

Lately, I've noticed many young people getting diseases that are usually associated with old age, like degenerative and incurable conditions. It's quite alarming. One thing is for sure: when a young person gets sick, their quality of life drops significantly. Light cases might reduce it by 10%, but severe cases can drop it by 90-99% (and as time goes on, it often becomes a life not worth living). That's just the reduction in enjoying life, not to mention building or achieving anything. Normal...

Overthinking - Overwrong Doing

There are things in life that, when too abundant, are not good. And among the countless things in this world that we (can) have, these few things, when exceeding a certain threshold - when in excess - can be subtly harmful, almost invisibly so. These things include: thoughts, emotions, and information. I've separated them for fun, but this trio often goes together. When there's new information, emotions arise, and all sorts of random thoughts start popping up in your head. It's fine to have a...

Algorithmic thinking🌷🌷

Part 2 Issue 1: Local Minima and Global Minimum (Refer to the image in the comment) This concept is better explained through the "exploration vs exploitation" concept in reinforcement learning. However, this discussion is limited to supervised learning. The "distance" between the output and the target is often called "cost" or "loss". Practically, the goal of learning is to update oneself to operate with less loss. But updating consumes energy, and people generally avoid expending energy unle...

Algorithmic thinking🌷🌷

Part 1. Overview Coding is a small task within programming and software engineering. Coding can be simply understood as "translating" instructions from human language into computer language. Programming includes additional tasks like planning, designing, developing (coding here), testing, deploying, maintaining, etc. Comparing it to cooking, a skilled chef must understand the essence of ingredients (how ingredients react with each other, with spices, with fire, with water, acid, the fat and m...

The Breath of Persistence - First Insight

Normalizing and Gradually Eliminating Dependence on Effort When we practice something, the media and many other influences often portray the image of having to train until you're spitting blood. This might be true if you find that high-intensity hardcore training suits you well. But for a lazy person like me, with poor willpower and determination, I've realized that high-intensity effort isn't quite my thing. This post is for people like me.We usually perform, learn, and showcase our best whe...

Good - Bad

And a bit about whether hitting a child is good or not Or rambling about how language can limit us and lead us to misjudge the essence of things Or language and the binary trap it sets Once, Feng asked a quite interesting question: Why do some people treat outsiders very well, but with their family, they just look for reasons to put them down? Upon reflection, the notion of "good" mentioned here is not really good. Humans are creatures driven by "incentives", roughly translated as acting base...

The concept of "doing by not doing" or "Wu Wei"

1. The Concept of "Doing by Not Doing" in Dao De Jing When I read the Dao De Jing, the concept of "doing by not doing" or "Wu Wei" initially seemed contradictory. However, upon reflection, an idea came to mind. This is just a personal interpretation, not to be taken as absolute truth, but rather as something to consider selectively. I think "doing by not doing" means not being mentally disturbed, not expending mental energy. It's like a child playing all day without getting bored or tired. Th...

Laugh at others one day, and the next day, it might be your turn to be laughed at.

Laugh at others one day, and the next day, it might be your turn to be laughed at. In the past, I often sneered at people for being foolish or naive, always thinking I was superior, more noble, and wiser. But life has a way of teaching you; if you harbor any bad traits, life will surely make sure you learn your lesson thoroughly. I used to mock those less fortunate than me, and fate put me in even worse situations, ironically. Finding myself in such dire straits, I realized I wasn't morally s...
