My buddy is studying for a PhD at a certain 985 university, and he said:
The essence of scientific research is just a bunch of people hyping concepts. A circle of people cheating the government funding together.
Many new concepts are actually just rebranded versions of stuff that was already done badly decades ago—renamed, packaged, and repackaged as something new, recycling old ideas.
So-called interdisciplinary integration just means one field can't handle itself anymore. They add in elements from another field, mix and match, and keep hyping it up.
The academic circle is a typical c

Relying on a job, the income ceiling in first-tier cities should be around 20k RMB after tax, with only a few industries reaching 30k RMB after tax.
Exceeding 20,000 to 30k RMB after tax is basically impossible; those who can break this limit are not ordinary people.
If you're not in a first-tier city, then this ceiling should be multiplied by a factor of 0.5 to 0.7.
There is a deliberately designed bottleneck in employment, intentionally making it difficult for the vast majority of people to pass.
This is similar to the acceptance rate of Tsinghua and Peking University—everyone works

Dabing's live stream featured a woman born in 1996. She recounted how her father secretly bought a car without telling anyone in the family. Family conflicts erupted, she went to negotiate, confronted relatives, and in the end, the car was returned and the money was recovered. The issue was "resolved."
Until Dabing asked: "How much did the car cost?"
The girl said: "Over ten thousand."
Dabing paused and asked her: "Do you know cars? A fuel-efficient car that costs around ten thousand yuan is just able to start and drive simply. It’s not a luxury item or a high-value purchase."
Then Dabing aske

Many people have no idea what they can actually do with ten thousand dollars.
They think ten thousand dollars can only buy a phone, a gym membership, a few good meals, and then they spend it all and go back to their desk complaining about having no money and no opportunities.
But the truth is: ten thousand dollars is enough to change a person's fate.
Step 1: Redeem yourself.
Have you ever calculated your expenses?
Rent: $1,500, Food: $1,500, Miscellaneous: $500.
In a city with low living costs, $4,000 is enough to cover a month’s expenses.
Ten thousand dollars is just enough for

Why are retail investors always trapped?
Please note the following facts:
1. Pension funds cannot lose money and must be profitable
2. Major insurance companies cannot lose money and must be profitable
3. Brokerage firms cannot lose money, or the platform will collapse—without a casino, how can it operate?

Office tricks you can avoid, but must know
1. Never trust your colleagues. No matter how friendly they seem.
2. Don’t show off anything to colleagues; better to complain about yourself than to flaunt happiness, as it may bring misfortune.
3. Don’t offend the favorites around your boss.
4. There’s a type of person who acts like a dog to superiors, a wolf to subordinates, and a ghost to colleagues. Yet, they are called high emotional intelligence.
5. Making friends with colleagues at work is like picking candy out of a trash heap; if you find candy, it’s luck. Finding poop is no surprise.
6. The

Why do most people feel that traveling is exhausting?
Because most people can't distinguish between traveling and vacationing.
Find a seaside house, sleep until you naturally wake up, wait until the sun has baked your butt before getting up, find a beach chair, hold a big coconut, enjoy the sea breeze and scroll through your phone, then have a seafood dinner at night. Afterward, go back to the hotel, play games, watch a movie, and when you're tired, cuddle with your partner and sleep. That’s true relaxation.
It's not about squeezing out your already limited time to rush to a market somew

The Truth Discovered After Leaving a Job
1. No matter how good friends are at work, once you leave your position, your relationship tends to fade.
2. Don't speak badly about colleagues to others, because sooner or later it will reach their ears.
3. If you don't work hard, you'll be nothing after leaving this platform, so you still need to have your own skills.
4. In the past, big companies could pay you 20,000, but small companies may not value you.

Teacher Zhang Xuefeng's passing taught me:
1. The greatest fairness in the world is that everyone will die. The second greatest fairness is that you can't take anything with you.
2. The ability to age peacefully is already a tremendous blessing. Not everyone has this opportunity.
3. Don't plan things too far ahead. The crematorium is never short of regrets.
4. Wear the clothes you like more often, use the things you like more, don't treat them as treasures. After people leave, even the best things end up in the trash.
5. Don't let separation teach us what it means to cherish.
6. If you don't l

When you're on the rise, don't tell anyone. Appear as weak as possible—it's protecting yourself from being targeted by opportunistic parasites.
I paid a heavy price for this lesson once, and I will absolutely never make the same mistake again. Back in my classmates' circle, I was a business legend, but during the downturn, that turned into public opinion against me, complete with all kinds of rumors. Those parasites—I've kept them in my heart forever. There will never be any contact with them again.
The fall of internet celebrity "Du Kou Jie" (Your Ferry) was so tragic. I started following her

I previously read about a transcendent technique that said if you want to accomplish something:
First, believe in yourself
Second, believe in yourself extremely
Third, just go do it
Fourth, eliminate dissent—remove everyone who doesn't believe in you
Keep only those who believe in you. In the end, you basically succeed. Because its core theory is that position determines mindset.
