This blog is partly devoted to the sharing of my learning of the English language (my well mastered mother tongue is Chinese and I am not an English teacher) and its *cultures*, partly to the current significant trends in Canada and in the world, and partly to my own random thoughts and little life. I am not religious, but I am somewhat interested in Christianity and Buddhism, among other personal interests. Welcome. And, have a good day.

I still think Google should have been more courteous to its existing users. It knows how to lose users' hearts.
It seems Microsoft has done significantly better in that aspect than Google.
Roughly speaking, it seems that these three tiers exist.
One is those people who know whom they are but have little marketable skills, so their money-earning capacities are limited for the time being. One example is those newly minted university grads who have majored in Arts.
Another tier is those people who sort of don't know whom they really are but have marketable skills, so their income-earning capacities are near the average.
The last is those people who both know whom they are and have marketable skills, so their earning power is at least somewhat above the average level.
The above is my guess. I might be wrong, and certainly I'm imprecise.

If you look along a certain dimension or perspective, many people want money because they need to solve their own problems.
At the same time, if you look along another dimension or perspective, many of those problems of them stem from their imprudent desires.
Socrates had been born roughly 40 years earlier than Plato was.
And the latter was a student of the former.

Mr. D is an ultimately efficient teacher. And he plays by the rules, that is, by his own rules.

Wanting to do important things conscientiously is a first-rate trait, I think.
If one doesn't have it, well, the top tier probably isn't for him.
Some Chinese elderly regard themselves to be omniscient about life and so they become hardheaded. No, myriad of things in life are beyond their imagination.
I hope I won't become like that when I grow old.

After several scattered rounds of controversy between G and me, the realization finally dawned on G that the give and take of obligations between her and her employer company is the annual working hours she must fulfill for the company, even if her job is an annually salaried one and not a part-time one.

Eventually Julian Assange, the founder of Wiki Leaks, will get his acquittance from the British court.
Otherwise people's trust of the British legal system will be shaken.
