blog
One of my goals for 2026 is to write more. My first blog post of the year is now live:
"The Future Is Cooperative"
https://whateverthing.com/blog/2026/01/05/the-future-is-cooperative/
Wherein I discuss the co-op model as an alternative to corporations/startups, and share my experiences so far with some of the co-ops I am involved with.
Continuing my writing goal for 2026, I've posted a new entry on my blog.
"A Few Words on Adaptations" - that is, adaptations of books to films or TV series.
https://whateverthing.com/blog/2026/01/11/a-few-words-on-adaptations/
I also updated the visual style of the blog slightly, so it works better on mobile and is slightly easier to read on screens that are super bright.
Finalmente atualizei meu blog com a lista dos filmes e séries de 2025 que mais recomendo!

用《君幸食》中扶夏总结的中餐烹饪方法术语一秒钟把敷衍食堂变高大上 https://blog.douchi.space/fancy-food-name-from-invitation-to-a-banquet/?utm_source=t.me/mtfront
《君幸食》里面有一篇讲中餐各种烹饪方法的文字的颇有意思，透过非母语但绝对比 99% 的中国人更热爱中餐的扶霞笔下的解读（我看的是中文版，又要从英文再译回来但保留外来者的观察视角，真是太有意思了，译者何雨珈对扶霞作品的翻译我也一直很喜欢！），突然对这些本来习以为常但又一知半解的词和与之相关的菜又更珍惜了。灵机一动摘抄下来，按这个起名方法，感觉我的敷衍食堂山猪快手菜也能变高大上了呢。 
I was going to blog about “there is nothing outside the text” but events overtook me and I wrote about the violence of the letter instead. No just kidding I wrote about

我每天用到的科技产品 https://blog.douchi.space/tech-i-use-everyday/?utm_source=douchi.space
前两年写过两篇 desk setup 和 EDC，也过去有几年了，生活方式和装备都变化了不少，比如搬家了、fully remote 工作也几年了，更何况不出门上班其实 EDC 这个分类不大能 cover 到真的每天在用的科技产品。刚好离上次写它们也换了一些行头了，干脆直接来写一篇 Tech I use everyday 好了。
分了生产里、健康、娱乐三个大类，鸡零狗碎盘点下来竟然有 24 个东西…… 这还没包括不是每天用的、非科技产品的以及已经吃灰了的东西。现代人的消费主义啊 
本文是我 2024 年 12 月 Patreon 的月度选题。下期选题（新年话题反正大家不选我也会写啦，就从 backlog 里挖点东西吧） https://www.patreon.com/posts/2025-nian-1-yue-117947013 ：
- 一些值得升级的事物
- 十年兜了个圈又回到大厂入职一 quarter 感想

重新自动化一下我的现金流 workflow https://blog.douchi.space/personal-finance-adjustments/?utm_source=douchi.space
去年底入职新工作，恢复了两周一次发工资，外加现金流增加了，就感觉中间差值的时间让钱放在利率可以忽略不计的 checking 账户里有点亏，来回手动在 HYSA (high yeild saving account)和 checking 之间打又过于琐碎和麻烦。于是趁着新工作，一鼓作气把用了十年的现金流 workflow 连根拔起重整优化了一下。
另外，新的一年了，大家记得 contribute to IRA & 调整 401K & HSA contribution. 恭喜发财！ 
Prometi um post sobre vocabulário e cumpri:
Ter poucas palavras disponíveis é também ter pouco espaço de manobra para pensar e fazer coisas novas ou, talvez, até de reformular coisas antigas e correlacionar o que sempre esteve ali, próximo, mas não interligado.
Há quem diga e estudos apontam que a própria estrutura de uma língua limita o que nós podemos pensar. Há pensamentos que não parecem encaixar na língua materna e se nos restringimos a ela, ficamos incapazes de pensar certas coisas. Só isso já valia aprender uma língua estrangeira.

博客印象收集 https://blog.douchi.space/blog-impression-survey/?utm_source=douchi.space
在 Allison 那里看到受长毛象嘟主印象启发的博客印象收集，本问卷爱好者立刻来了！虽然是长毛象重度用户，但记性不好无法贡献对别的嘟主（哪怕是挺熟的）的印象，因此也一直没玩过毛象嘟主印象。博客就不一样了，大家的站风格鲜明，而且不在记忆里的话稍微进去翻两页就想起来是哪位博主了，比较好检索，感觉更适合我。
New #BookReview on my #blog: "Diary of a Bookseller."

New blog post:
Linkdump No 96

So here's the first of the #MysteryAuthors from our #Winter issue.
Nice trees, somewhat obscured by the #BlankPage
But who could it be?

It's taken me some time to get my writing mojo back after the holidays, but I've finally managed the first #blog of the year. It's a #review of @pluralistic 's excellent The Internet Con.
I know I'm a book behind and #Enshittification is on my list, but The Internet Con remains an excellent manifesto, primer and polemic for anyone who wants to understand why the internet feels broken, and what we can do about it.
