Ask HN: Is there a whole universe of Chinese software that we don't see? (Score: 100+ in 17 hours)

China is obviously a major world player, but we rarely see articles/repos/posts/etc., that seem to originate from there, translated or not, or simply referred to. Are we missing out on lots of cool advancements from China? Or do Chinese engineers generally publish in English? Is there some massive Chinese GitHub with cool stuff we don't know about? Science is science and I can't shake the feeling that we're missing out on stuff, but I really have no idea. Would love to hear people's thoughts.

99% 的人，面对人生时的态度都是「找最优解」。特别是在这个有各种量化标尺，效率至上的世界里。我们总想花最少的时间，用最少的投入获得最多成功，把其他人都比下去。
认识 TimberNord 之后，我才意识到，那些以物质为主轴，暗搓搓的攀比也好、焦虑也好，发出一些小雅痞的无病呻吟也好，在真正的理想、苦难，自我实现面前，真的就跟放屁没什么区别。
你可能会财务自由，但跟「32 岁，离婚后，放弃在发达国家做建筑设计的中产生活，重新开始申请本科，专业是动画，过程中靠送 UberEats 过活」真的没什么可比性。

✒️Dynamic Entropy
Despite years of effort by my physics professors to normalize it, deep down I remain convinced that 'dynamical' is not really a word.

看了王垠最新写的这篇《新丑陋的中国人》。中国人多，针对「中国人」这个总体发表看法很容易招致非议。我自己对词的态度是，一旦遇到集体名词，我默认不是针对我。
撇开这个集体名词不说，想单谈里面讲到的一个现象——「无聊的生存话题」。这一点我有切身体会，大学毕业刚开始工作后，只要是公司聚餐，大家三句话之内就能把话题转到房价、学区、结婚、生孩子上。我并不是说不能聊这种话题，但天天聊也确实有点无聊。
我也不是不知道每个人生活状态艰难，在物质生活条件得不到保障或者没有安全感的时候，这些「生存话题」确实是重要的——甚至是很多人最重要的——的议题。但这不意味着聊天的话题只能集中在这上面，话题多样一点，有利身心健康。如果自己的学识和能力做不到让话题多样，努力让自己有这样的学识和能力，有利身心健康——甚至说不好还真能解决那些生存问题呢。

很难确定他们到底发生了什么事，因为他们的整个文化模因谱都遭到了致命级照射。他们的核心文化概念，他们创造的东西，其象征意义，所重视的价值，都永远不能被再次获知或宣讲。
