The way you use AI tools determines the results you get. Some people gradually lose basic skills and knowledge, becoming more dependent on tools; others use them to deepen knowledge and develop new skills.

Rybbit - an open-source and privacy-focused Google Analytics alternative, with a more intuitive and easy-to-use experience, fully 10x better.

Let Codex help me self-host this service on my RN VPS, and also integrate it with this current website. This kind of workload was unimaginable before Codex. It's not that it's difficult or complex, it's that installing software and configuring the environment is too troublesome. Now it's automatically done in a few minutes. I just help out by adding one domain A record.

I've decided to first focus on making software for myself, using any suitable technology and platform. Take care of my own needs first. If others like it after it's released, then I'll think about making money.

"Benefit yourself first, then benefit others." This mindset feels more natural.

Using AI to learn new skills is extremely efficient.

Laying the foundation, explaining concepts, background principles, practicing solutions, organizing knowledge. This is my learning process.

Of course, the entire process requires your own guidance and organization, because everyone's thoughts and ways of thinking are different, so the overall effect and feeling will also differ.

V4-Pro permanent price reduction of 75% (Synchronized with DeepSeek official adjustment on May 31, 2026)

V4-Pro three-tier prices are all reduced to 1/4 of original: input $1.74/M → $0.435/M, output $3.48/M → $0.87/M, cache hit $0.0145/M → $0.003625/M.

Using OpenClacky AI Key automatically applies the new prices, combined with a 99% cache hit rate, actual costs for long conversations and Agent workflows can be further reduced by approximately 50%.

Last night I looked into the basics of web3 and had some questions, so I asked GPT. GPT answered very well, and I plan to organize and record these questions and answers. I never had the habit of organizing knowledge before, always thinking that understanding at the moment was enough, but memory is unreliable, and it's not convenient to review or look back again. The overall effect is just like a chat log, with some unnecessary information mixed in, and I have no interest or value in looking at it again.

At first I considered Google Docs, Feishu, Tencent, but finally chose Notion.

I didn't use Google Docs, firstly due to network access issues, and secondly because formatting is not convenient enough. As for Feishu and Tencent, the problem is that as soon as I opened their official websites, I was turned off — they are all enterprise-focused promotions, which is intimidating. The common problem of these three is that they have too many features and complex interfaces. Although they are powerful, they are also very off-putting. What I want is: UI and interaction should be simple, clean, easy to get started, and convenient for me to organize text and knowledge. Don't increase my learning and usage cost. I just want to use it intuitively without thinking, and quickly get my work done.

Lei Jun is probably the Chinese entrepreneur who embodies Japanese-style entrepreneurial spirit the most. He is a strong learner, willing to show vulnerability, and unafraid of adopting a humble stance.

The essence of Lei-style marketing is not in the numbers or fine print, but in the courage to be sincere and the bravery to face imperfection and temporary setbacks.

I am not a Xiaomi fan, never have been, yet I would not mock Xiaomi—a company that dares to acknowledge its gaps and strives to catch up.
