What's New - Vol. 2

The information here is probably useless, as it is created to help me orgnaize my ideas. However, I would be very glad if it helps anyone.

Games

Black Myth: Wukong is about to release next week. It is the first game released by Game Science. I am not sure the quality of it, as the studio is said to be good at action system, which is what I am not quite interested. However, the media I live mentioned that its game design quality is solid. I purchased one copy and will try it next week.

It will be my first time to experience Chinese culture in a video game. I am looking forward it.

Movies

I watched Perfect Blue this week. It shocked me that it was the first movie producted by Satoshi Kon. His style showed in the beginning of this movie. There is a lecture coming with the movie. It helps a lot if you cannot understand what the story is.

I like the movie very much, as I am now at a similar stage as where the heroine is. I am not sure if I made wrong decisions, and I am afraid of the future. I hope I can move forward as the heroine.

Investment

It was reported this week that Buffett invested in Heico, a big compounder. I like the strategy and it makes me more confident of holding shares of Berkshire.

To get more information about investing in compounders, you can read the report from REQ Capital.

Note Taking

I changed my note taking flow during working. I found it was quite useful and convenient for a terminal guy.

I write all stuffs into a markdown file like ~/work/inbox.md. The file will be like,

# INBOX

## 2024-08-10

* [x] Need to check with Bill about more info of project X.
* [ ] Review PR of 12345.

Meeting note:

* I don't hear a word. A boring meeting.

## 2024-08-11

Notes of the new day.

When it grows longer, I manually split it into different files.

# INBOX

* 2024
  * [Project X](project-x.md)
  * [August 2024](2024-08.md)

## 2024-09-01

September now!

I created some shortcuts to filter and preview.

note () {
    glow ~/work/inbox.md
}

notef () {
    rg "$@" ~/work/
}

todo () {
    rg -C 5 '\* \[ \]' ~/work/
}

notee () {
    vim ~/work/inbox.md
}

noteadd () {
    echo "$@" >> ~/work/inbox.md
}

It is quite easy to add and search notes. The only problem is that it is kind of hard to insert and view images. I may need to find some solutions.
