Bad experience of Facebook

I deleted the FaceBook icon on the homepage. Started two weeks ago, my Facebook account has been suspended for three times. For the first time, I’ve experienced the situation that no one could find my name and message me on this disgusting platform and all of contents of the account are not visible. Facebook said that I violated their policy but they didn’t tell any clear reason. I think that all of my activities on it are normal....

Images, grammar checker and comment system

Grammar checker These days I was thinking of stopping using grammar checker. Writing skill is gained by practicing. We should make a lot of mistakes and face challenges of expressing our ideas when we are learning a language. Is it really necessary to use grammar checker when we are writing ? I guess it’s not. Why not keep the originality of my own writings. After polishments of this writings some of them even couldn’t pass the AI detection....

Updated my now page

Updated my now page. Deleted other fields. Very tired now… I’m thinking of using plain text as my to-do list. Now my pages and post are the same with my diaries. They are all using plain texts now.

Codex

After spending a long time using Codex to build my website, I realized how strong my desire was to add all kinds of features. I kept spending time tweaking the site, and I couldn’t tolerate even the tiniest bugs.

Not by AI badge

Recently, many graduates have been booing speakers when they mention AI or express optimism about the future of AI. A lot of content has been generated by AI since 2022. There are even many AI-generated videos, and some TV series are being created with AI instead of being produced by human actors. This is not only happening with written content. AI already seems to be integrated into modern life, just like the Internet....

Collecting and Writing

I spent a lot of time downloading comic books. My habit of collecting things without actually using or reading them is becoming stronger again. Recently, I started using Markor, and I found that Markor is a great tool when combined with Termux. The writing workflow feels very smooth now. It also provides templates when I create a file, so I don’t need to fill in the slug and translationKey manually....

Local Fonts and Better Word Counts

I made two small but important improvements to this site today: I moved the Chinese web font to local files, and I rewrote the word-counting logic. The Chinese pages had been using KingHwa OldSong through an external CDN. In theory this was convenient, but in practice it was fragile. If the CDN was blocked, slow, changed domains, or returned an error, the browser would fall back to a system font. That made the site look different from what I intended....

Baptism Testimony

Hello everyone, I am Qiran. I stand here today to share with you God’s work in my life and to welcome my future baptism. Before believing in the Lord, I relied on worldly things to sustain my life. Whether it was playing, studying, or working, these things seemed to fill my time, but they couldn’t fill my heart. I often pondered the meaning of life, but the meaning constantly shifted and fluctuated with circumstances and successes and failures....

Updated Hugo

After several days of burning the midnight oil, I finally finished migrating my commenting system, adding custom buttons to my site, and implementing several other features. The new commenting system, Waline, supports reactions and comes with a clean, elegant interface. I also added floating buttons at the bottom of each page—a table of contents button and a comment button—so visitors can quickly jump to the sections they want. If articles on different language websites have similar content, the comment sections will be merged together....

It’s all my fault

That afternoon, I stood at your door. You bit your lip, and still said we should break up. My pleading and my tears did nothing. Maybe I should taste this bitter fruit myself. All the ways you gave in to me—I never really got them. I thought love was so strong it needed no reason. My heart began to shake; I felt your pain. But your face was already cold....
