Another Year Has Passed
In the blink of an eye, it passed by without even having time to say a proper goodbye, and we’ve welcomed a new year. I think I should take some time to reflect and look ahead.
Work and Life
I originally wanted to discuss them separately, but looking back over the year, I realized that most of my life is work - this is my reality as an ordinary person! Work and life are intertwined, you in me and me in you, and that’s exactly the problem!
Not to mention that repetitive time occupies most of our days, memorable moments are few and far between. I think the only joy comes from weekend rest time, maybe just lying at home doing nothing, or going out traveling with my wife!
Professional Development
Why don’t I talk about technology anymore? Because technology involves my profession, and profession is about becoming a better “tool person.” Why? Because I’m constantly switching between various existing tools, while creating very little myself. Of course, being able to quickly use various new tools is also a kind of ability!
So what technical concepts have I accumulated this year? Learning to use AI, constantly understanding and learning, from traditional machine learning to deep learning, then understanding the difference between training and inference, etc… Then using AI to help quickly identify gaps and fill them. I hope this year I can use AI to create my own things - only then will I feel that my technology has truly accumulated!
Speaking of professional accumulation, it shouldn’t be limited to just my own little corner. I should think from systematic, global, and interdisciplinary perspectives to help deepen my understanding of my own field! Then have my own works. So I think this year can truly be considered the beginning of my professional accumulation. Before, I was always rushing to do this and that, but nothing was done well. Only now do I slowly understand that truly doing something well requires a lot of investment. Dedication is the most important thing!
Thinking Patterns
I often ask myself why I do things and why I don’t do them. When facing difficulties, I first break them down: what’s the current situation, why is it like this, what’s the core essential reason, how to solve it, how to prevent it.
Whether in work, life, or learning, I use systematic thinking to find my own answers!
I deeply understand that not everything needs to seek meaning, but because I do it, it becomes meaningful!
This past year, I’ve been transforming my thinking patterns, allowing me to continuously cultivate my ability to see the essence through phenomena!
Relationships
This isn’t a technical blog, it’s a blog that records all kinds of things about me, so relationships also need to be recorded!
From getting to know each other, falling in love, to accompanying and supporting each other, it’s inseparable from the joint efforts of two people. When encountering problems, we bear them together and solve them together. Love isn’t a momentary performance or impulse. For men, besides companionship, there’s more responsibility. Because after marriage, you don’t belong to yourself, you belong to the family!
Looking Forward
The plan for the day lies in the morning, the plan for the year lies in spring! First, congratulations to myself for living through another year. Thank heaven for its grace and elders for their protection. I think being alive is a kind of happiness - who knows when one might just be gone? I’m not saying I’m looking forward to death, but rather facing the uncertainty of being alive.
Only by being alive do we have all possibilities! So my outlook for this year is to become wiser!

As for the rest, it depends on how much I can do - I’ll do as much as I can!
