  • a trip to 戦場ヶ原, it's true that you could find scenic views at Japan in various seasons
  • spent quite a lot of time to finish the course of "justice" from professor sandel. -- to think in frameworks, not dogmas
    • Kant's universal law
    • Rawls's justice as fairness
    • Aristotle's virtue ethics
  • we ran twice to finish one loop of the yamanote line in the style of half-marathon, as you could see in the front-page. (they were also my first, second half-marathon)
  • I failed to do quite a lot of things, the piano was hardly touched, also the games I bought, and the textbooks stayed at my shelf since ever...
  • but rather, I kept a good sleep routine, 6~7 hours in the night, aside the duration, all other metrics were near full score frequently

conclusion

adapt, and be adept.

Happiness is your reality minus your expectations.

[!quote] 其实这就是判断，你适合不适合一个领域的核心方法：一看你能不能快速学会，这个领域的知识和方法。二看你在这个领域，做得久了之后，会不会感到厌烦，会不会主动去回忆和思考，之前学到的东西。

we are human capital, and the education is the only short-cut to "success" (having more value than others)?

Weiss's most devastating analysis: Education as investment

The promise:

  • Invest in education (yours, your children's)
  • Education = human capital
  • Human capital = good job, security, advancement
  • Meritocracy rewards investment

The reality:

  • Education is POSITIONAL GOOD (value comes from having more than others)
  • Everyone investing → credentials inflate → need MORE education
  • Bachelor's → Master's → PhD → certificates → lifelong learning
  • Treadmill speeds up, never reaches destination
  • Student debt = mortgage on your future self
