The plan must never be to have a plan
My writing process is typically thus: I will bang out a stream of consciousness first draft, getting everything that I think I want to say out of my head and into text; I will then read over that first draft and realise it’s not right. The fact is that while I may have had an idea of what I wanted to say, the piece iteslf has no fucking clue what it’s about. In fact, it’s garbage. I suck and should never write again; I must now leave it for a day. Or a week. Or a month. And then, if I feel up to it, I will come back; Usually I select-all-and-delete, then try and write a plan to actually figure

How’s the writing going?
Identity is weird. I’m a writer, but saying that casts this weird spell on people. I think the spell comes from a good place, a place of compassion and curiosity. But it’s a deadly spell. “So… how’s the writing going?” Immediately I feel a fraud. How is the writing going? I haven’t published to the blog for ages, haven’t sat down to actually put an essay together for weeks. No, months. Who says I’m a writer? “Oh, you know. It’s going” The deflation is palpable. They’re rooting for me, they want to hear about the progress on the novel, or the collection of short stories, or the self-help book,

I rewrote my previous blog post twice
I love to write. Decades after I learned to read, it still amazes me that the written word can cross miles and millenia to transmit a writer’s thoughts to his or her readers. In high school, a series of excellent teachers taught me that writing is an expression of thinking, so that if you’re having […]

I don't blog to a schedule
A schedule of regular writing puts a pressure on me that I don't need. It implies I am writing for an external audience and not myself. Scheduling requires a degree of planning that cuts across the creative process. Either I need to find ideas or hold them back. Email a comment

My Writing Struggle
When I first set up this blog I had big plans for it. I wanted to share my tinkering with technology and online privacy. The main goal was to educate and inform others. The first target was 10 articles in year one. I published 3. I missed the same goalpost the next year, and every year after. Why? Why can’t I write as much as I want? My High Bar # I’m not short of ideas. I have a stack of drafts sitting on the back burner — posts that didn’t make the cut. Wait, what cut?

无人守望的麦田
每天上班的路上，我都会开车经过一个十字路口。那里总有一个老人，坐在轮椅上，默默看着来往的车流。不与人交谈，只是静静地坐着。 小区里，阴凉处也常坐着一些老人，挤在一块儿，很少交谈，没有争吵，没有笑声，就那么不出声地坐着。既不急于离开，也不真正交流，这其中也有我的爷爷……

论第一性原理
关于第一性原理，去年我进行了主题阅读，把市面上风评不错的书通读了十本，包括马斯克的红皮书等相关材料也都看过。但有一个问题，很多人讲着讲着，就把自己的专业知识和社会经验，当成了第一性原理本身——某个人在某个领域是权威，他当年是这样走过来的，于是他认定这条路就是「正确」的、「第一性」的。这不是说这条路一定是错的，只是他把顺序倒过来了：他先有了「果」，然后才回过头去把这个果包装成「因」。这是倒果为因，不是第一性原理。
