On 对立统一
Context是海南封关，墙内一片看好海南取代新加坡在国际的地位。这种现象其实不让人意外，毕竟教育如此，宣传如此。但让我联想起“对立”和“统一”的起因是，在知乎上某山东IP的人坚信新加坡总统和总理因为害怕而“语无伦次”了。在我的印象中，持有这种观点的人大多也是看不起南方省份尤其是广东、广西和海南的。他们认为这些省的人跟他们北方汉人相异，因此低人一等，原因可能是多种多样的，包括肤色、身高、语言等等。此为对立。
但面对新加坡这种“外人”的时候，海南这一南方省份的属性突然就不重要了，因为有了外敌。海南是在“我们”这边的，“我们”这边的自然是好的，必定会胜利的。此为统一。
一个更好的例子是香港与新加坡。当需要强调中国有多么好的时候，香港背靠大陆，未来远优于新加坡。当需要强调香港人有多么坏的时候，香港早已被香港人破坏成金融遗迹，而深圳上海早已可取而代之。海南、香港、台湾和新加坡皆如此。这些人的思维其实是consistent的，即“我”就是最好的，跟“我”靠得越近的人越好，但都没有“我”好。

On Epic's free games
每到Epic送游戏的时候，总有人嘲讽送的是4399（一般指体量不大的小游戏）。先不说是否体量小或是画面不够AAA的游戏就比AAA游戏差（答案显然为否，反例可以是Stardew Valley or any of your favourite indie games vs <input trash AAA game here>）。
先来说说在这优绩主义的社会里，阁下算哪根葱。阁下毕业于什么层级的院校？什么学历？在什么公司/单位/学校工作？什么职级？有什么代表作？专业技术在行内排行第几？就阁下这条件，还好意思挑Epic送的游戏？阁下要是黑悟空：神话或是原神的创作者要trash talk别人的游戏，那真是我有眼不识泰山，失敬失敬，您请上台/s。
然而另外一边厢Steam上厂商送一些bare positive的游戏，某些人倒是甘之如饴……
起码Epic送游戏是会给开发者钱的。
Hasta luego, don't die.

Customer Support: when will this fixed?
Me: it will be expected to be ready in the afternoon for customer to try out
CS: okay I will tell customer…
Project Manager: STOP! Please wait a minute until Patrick to complete and actually deploy
CS: I have told the customer to try in literally a minute
Me, went outside to get a coffee: … :neocat_drowsy:Yes, it’s afternoon, but this doesn’t automatically means it’s already DEPLOYED! Also what the f**k why you are taking the time literally you donkey :neocat_scream_angry:
I feel really tired combining our customer threatening us that they will told our other customers that we failed to adapt to the “standard” which I later found out it is not a standard among the industry :neocat_flop_sleep:

A silent treatment is not a good way to perform a meeting with colleagues
