My third speaking video on X.
A love letter to #China. 🇨🇳💕
Let me know what you think, I am a massive amateur at this 💕 Sound better, voice quicker?

China is my 61st country 🇨🇳
Starting my tour from Shanghai.
Here’s what impressed me so far:
1. Safe - police literally every 100 meters
2. Green - parks everywhere, riverside in blooming roses & daisies
3. Clean - cleaning cars roam the streets multiple times per day
4. Alipay is used for everything - from payments to taxi & translations, even tax free & messenger is there
5. Tourism built for Chinese, not foreigners. Almost no-one speaks English.
6. Crazy traffic - cars & motos don’t stop on green light for pedestrians
7. Robots cleaning the streets & delivering room service
8. Eclectic - very cool mix between local traditions & contemporary ideas

I'm traveling the world for a bit, starting with China but then hopping around the globe, anywhere. Open to any adventure. No plans, only a backpack. Hoping to meet & get to know humans from all walks of life. The pic is from a long hike on the Great Wall. For me, as a fan of history, this was an epic experience.
In China, first I'm visiting a few big cities & talking to engineers at the heart of China's AI revolution. After that, if feeling crazy enough, I'm hitchhiking (first time) across rural China for a few weeks. Hitchhiking because I think it's the best way to meet rural folks who I would otherwise never get the chance to meet. I hope to do the same in US and other places.
I have a request, if you have a travel recommendation, fill out the form(s) below if you feel like it. Or share with folks who might have advice about such travel.
Form 1 - travel recommendation:
If you can, recommend to me an interesting place I should visit anywhere in the world. For this, fill out form 1. Not touristy stuff, but something off the beaten path, that tourists may not know about, but is legendary. It could be as remote as meeting a herder in the mountains who is a local legend. Asia, Middle East, Europe, India, South/North America, Africa, Australia, anywhere. In China, I'm hoping to visit maybe Heibei, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Gansu, Sichuan, Yunnan, etc, so recommendations for spots to visit are helpful.
Form 2 - coffee:
If you want to grab a coffee with me anywhere in the world, fill out form 2 (please don't use form 1 for that).
Anyway, I hectically tossed stuff in backpack. Realizing I don't have a clear plan of any kind, which is probably the only way to do it. LFG.
Love you all ❤️

Sneak peak of my upcoming Starship HLS video! I always try to make videos that would help me learn a subject from scratch. I'm a very visual learner and with a topic as complicated as Starship HLS and its refueling, it requires A LOT of good visuals! And I'm ALMOST done! HOPE to publish it by this weekend!!! Wish me luck!!

@CleansedTweets good luck, ms. Miss :-) hope you like my country and want to back again in the future...

As Im leaving China, today I went to get my criminal background check certificate. It’s free, takes 5 mins to apply for & can be collected in 48 hours.
In England the same document using ACRO costs $190 to get in 2 days.
What is it? Each country you work in it’s advisable to get a document from the government in question to say you didn’t break the law whilst there. The country you go next to work will ask for all your criminal background checks from each country.

@EricLDaugh show me the ticket of $40 to prove you are not a liar, even though i am also hating the cameras...
English

🚨 The Chinese Communists have just TICKETED the Fox News crew, using their abundance of surveillance cameras placed around Beijing!
BRET BAIER: "There are literally cameras everywhere...they see everything...our driver parked illegally for 2 MINUTES and got a ticket for $40!"
"Because they saw it, on the camera."
This is Communism! It's what the Democrats want.

@tesla_semi Why not transform it to be a super mobile solar powerpack with full load of battery.

在小红书上看到有个女生,她竟然放弃了 Anthropic 的 某个垂直业务线的Founding Data Scientist 的最后两轮面试(她好像已经面了百分之七八十,还剩最后两轮),她觉得去了之后压力会很大,hours也会很长,还要跟最优秀的人竞争,然后就这样放弃了。
虽然尊重每个人的选择,但对我来说,我觉得这是难以想象的。因为我觉得世界上现在 99.9%的科技公司都不值得我去投入每周65+小时的时间去打工,除了我自己的公司,但我觉得 Anthropic 绝对就是这 0.1%中的公司。
如果御三家给我机会我愿意996😭😭😭而且也不怕身边的人都很强自己竞争不过会玉玉😭😭😭
Unfortunately 御三家鸟都不鸟我😭😭😭

It is with a heavy heart that I share the sad news that one of my lab members, Pengli Wang, PhD student in chemical engineering, has passed away on Friday, May 1, at the age of 28, in an unexpected accident.
I’ve struggled to write this because it is hard to put into words just how much Pengli meant to our lab, his friends, the Stanford graduate student community, and of course his family.
From my own limited perspective, Pengli was any advisor’s dream student: creative, insightful, courageous, and an extraordinarily gifted experimentalist. He was a true polymath, self-taught in everything from computational protein structural modeling to high-throughput protein engineering to animal behavioral testing.
In only 3.5 years in the lab, Pengli had already made an enormous and lasting impact on the field of protein engineering. He has a co-first-author paper in press describing a new method that will transform both empirical and AI-based protein engineering. He also recently submitted a first-author paper on imaging neurotransmitters through enzymatic light emission, enabling us to observe cellular communication in living animals completely noninvasively. I expect this work will lead to new ways of investigating and understanding neurological and metabolic disease.
Arthur C. Clarke wrote that “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Pengli was the best magician, producing eye-opening tricks, each better than the last. The loss of his future contributions is immeasurable, but the technologies he already created will continue to benefit science and medicine for years to come.
What truly made Pengli special, though, was his kindness and joy for life. He never hesitated to help others, and he generously mentored many newer lab members, all of whom spoke about what an exceptional teacher he was. He also had an unforgettable spirit — the loudest and funniest laugh in the room, and an ability to eat astonishing amounts of food while somehow remaining skinny. He is deeply missed by everyone who knew him.
Pengli, may you rest in peace and in the lasting glow of your accomplishments. You represented the very best of humanity and will forever remain an inspiration to all of us.
💔

@LH @michellearning @LinkedinFlex need to meet the right scale-enough-to-costdown level which now is easier in china...but any innovative try is respected...
English

@michellearning @LinkedinFlex You completely missed my point. My point is that there are much smarter ways to do repetitive automatable tasks than by RL training of a robot arm. Google learned this years ago with their failed "Arm Farm" experiment.
