一座城市的性格,往往不在它最著名的建筑里,而在清晨六点的菜市场、傍晚的公园长椅和深夜还亮着灯的小店里。这些地方没有被写进旅游手册,却决定了一个人住在这里是否感到踏实。

每个人都有自己的节奏。有的人早上头脑最清楚,有的人到了晚上才进入状态。重要的不是跟着别人的时间表走,而是找到属于自己的那段最好的时间,并且把最重要的事情安排在那时候。

Everyone has their own rhythm; protect your best hours.
在讨论任何一项技术的影响时,我们容易陷入两种简化:一种把它当作解决一切问题的钥匙,另一种把它当作所有麻烦的根源。这两种说法之所以流行,是因为它们都不需要具体的知识。而真正有意义的讨论往往从一个更笨的问题开始:在什么条件下、对谁、这项技术会带来什么样的改变。
