  • A comment on Talk: Keith Chen: Could your language affect your ability to save money?

    Feb 21 2013: Remind me of this talk: http://www.ted.com/talks/amy_cuddy_your_body_language_shapes_who_you_are.html?fb_ref=talk.

    I do believe what you do/say and how you do/say things can have great impact on your behaviors. However, I am wondering how language acts as a pure effect here: what about an American born Chinese, who mainly speak English but has parents speak Chinese? Will this population behave a futureless-language style or a future-language style?

    A comment on Talk: Daphne Koller: What we're learning from online education

    Aug 1 2012: Great job done for all who want to learn! I appreciate the spirit to offer this opportunity for the sake of human's wellbeing in the long run.

    I am having GREAT experience with coursera and I recommend everyone to give it a try!
  • A reply on Talk: Malte Spitz: Your phone company is watching

    Jul 25 2012: Ok, I agree with you upon one thing: the choice is yours. However, what I am saying is that the choice of arguing your right to have the privacy is yours. Let human rule the technology, not the other way around.
  • A comment on Talk: Brené Brown: The power of vulnerability

    Feb 16 2012: Learning how to appreciate your weakness and believing that yourself is worth of love -- a life-long lesson to learn. I hope I will never forget to fight for this in my everyday life.

    A reply on Talk: Tan Le: A headset that reads your brainwaves

    Dec 5 2011: Agree. I believe it is an important point that people could "code" the tasks in the way they want. If I like to move the target to right by blinking my right eyes, then why not?
  • A comment on Talk: Yang Lan: The generation that's remaking China

    Oct 4 2011: Thanks Lan for her precise description of current status of China. Though it only revealed part of it, and didn't go quite deep to the politics behind it, it is still good to let the world know more about the real China.
