20190514 - Amazing approach of learning

The target is not art. It's a tool. "Learning" is a game.

No matter what the target is, playing piano or speaking in another language are same.

Mistakes and failures are normal and inevitable. They have their own value, they are necessary cost we should pay.

Book: 20250602 to 20250625, "Die With Zero" by Bill Perkins

20250603 - 1 Optimize Your Life No, you cannot get me to work two hours just to buy that shirt! p11 It's natural to be thrifty if income is low. Many psychological studies have shown that spending money on experience makes us happier than spending money on things. p13 Why? It force us to pay attention to the moment. If we can pay attention to the moment all the time, then we stop living on autopilot. From big data training point of view, that means we will not treat daily activities as noise but real data. 20250604 - 2 Invest in Experiences The main idea here is that your life is the sum of your experiences. p22 It's wrong.

20250705 - Introduction Products based on disruptive technologies are typically cheaper, simpler, smaller, and, frequently, more convenient to use. p xix Not in early stage. How to recognize the potential of a new product? Based on physics? First, disruptive products are simpler and cheaper; they generally promise lower margins, not greater profits. Second, disruptive technologies typically are first commercialized in emerging or insignificant markets. And third, leading firms’ most profitable customers generally don’t want, and indeed initially can’t use, products based on disruptive technologies.
