You can keep silent in areas you don’t understand, but don’t express your opinions indiscriminately. Such opinions will not make you appear innocent or honest, but will only make you appear brainless.

On World Book Day, humans are looking at their mobile phones, while artificial intelligence is reading.
“If you like reading, it’s not a big deal. If you don’t like reading, there’s nothing wrong with it. It’s already a big deal for a person to know exactly what he doesn’t like. If he knows what he likes further, it’s still in this matter. It’s nice to spend some time doing it. Most people waste their time on the fun, but don’t they have a good time too?”

Recently, I have been accompanying me in the hospital. I wanted to read some relaxing and pleasant books to calm down my mood, only to find that there are no such books in my reading list.
The Qing government controlled the thoughts of the scholars through the imperial examination, and controlled the thoughts of the villagers through the preaching of the township agreement.

Guo Degang has a saying that goes like this: It’s okay to talk about other people’s family affairs until you die; it’s okay to talk about your own family affairs after death. Let me change it: talk about other people’s family affairs to death; don’t talk about your own family affairs at death.
Musk’s starship launch reflects the weakness of the domestic media. There was almost no news before the launch, and launch failures all popped up.

You can’t stop running a marathon unless you have to. It’s like doing a lot of things. Once you stop, it’s very difficult to start again.

Looking at the Baojia system or Lijia system in the Qing Dynasty, the person in charge is in an awkward role. If the person in charge is born from honest villagers, then he will most likely become a victim of the yamen pawns; if the person in charge is born from rogues, then the villagers are his victims—or become victims, or let the people become victim.

Thoughts on the Qingming Festival: With more and more ancestors, wouldn’t the descendants have to sweep a lot of tombs? How can I scan it.

There is a saying in the product growth that “as long as there is a process, there will be loss”, read [[“Local Government of the Qing Dynasty”]], which reflects “as long as there is a process, there will be exploitation”.
Classic behavior of harming others and benefiting oneself: use “save to XXX” under the comment area of social platforms.

It is very important to say what you say in what environment. Tomb-sweeping in the Qingming Festival, it is rare for a group of relatives who are far from each other to get together, and it is inevitable to talk about some topics about themselves. At this time, if you only talk about things from your own perspective, it will be difficult to communicate to the point. For example, people in the city say, “I often lift irons, and I am not afraid of getting tired.” Others in Murakami will probably understand that this guy can lift a piece of iron when he has nothing to do.

[[“Local Government of the Qing Dynasty”]] mentioned an interesting thing: Officials in the Qing Dynasty were punished less for public crimes than for private crimes, because private crimes showed that personal morality had fallen, so the punishment would be heavier. Recently, Pinduoduo has maliciously exploited system loopholes to make profits. This kind of active evil behavior can be understood as a “private crime”.
