The Rulers

The best rulers are scarcely known by their subjects;
The next best are loved and praised;
The next are feared;
The next despised.
-- From Chapter 17, "Tao Te Ching"(《道德经》第17章)

创新的本质

创新,从本质上,是列举了理论上所有的可能性,排除了不可能实现的案例,排除已经实现的案例,剩下的就是了。

What Drives the Universe?

The first question - Is the Universe purpose-driven?
The second - Is it possible that a non-purpose-driven system consists of a series of subsystems, one or many (even all) of which are purpose-driven? Obviously human society is a purpose-driven system. If the second question is false, we conclude that the Universe is purpose-driven.

(Hint: If you search "Does the universe have a purpose?" you'll find others opinions.)

Mission No. 1 - Improve Coding Efficiency


There exists no useful idea given poor implementation efficiency. The property of freely copying of codes makes it possible for a developer to improve coding efficiency exponentially as time elapse. But the magic has some constraints.

First, you must manage your own codes and some open source codes very well. When you need any of them, you can make the codes run in a couple of minutes. It may cost much time to understand other's codes. However, if you know how to fully test the codes, you don't need to read the details unless you're not satisfied with the performance.

Second, type fast and continuously fast. This is not as important as the first constraint because we assume every developer has already typed fast.

Third, design full test cases for all possible errors and mistakes. Archive them because they are helpful to quickly understand the corresponding codes.

The Whole Map

Human is not the owner of the universe. The universe is the owner of human. We take a part in helping the universe evolution. First, we serve the public. Next, we serve the universe.
