The cover image is from a new Nuphy keyboard I bought after being influenced.
Tracing the heart, means that the footprints of the soul flow with the shadows, recording, tracing, and contemplating one's inner world. At the same time, interesting information that is seen is recommended every week.
On Saturday, I reorganized the utility applications I usually use on my computer. I will use them for a month to see the effect. I don't want to be a slave to tools, I want to create more content. After a month, regardless of the outcome, I will write an article to talk about my thoughts.
Starting next week, I will have four days off. The company is considerate, we don't have to work on New Year's Eve, just swipe the attendance card. There is not much work, so I will have more time to do my own things.
Because I have a dog, I don't really want to visit relatives. It's not easy to take care of the dog. Maybe it's because I don't want to visit relatives myself, so I blame it on the dog. I feel that it's not interesting and I'm annoyed that I might be asked to be a driver. If there's nothing important, I'll just leave.
New Keyboard#
This week, I came across a keyboard on Twitter. This time it's black. I've seen a gray-black one before and I was influenced to buy it. The one I'm currently using is a white keyboard co-branded by Few and Keychron 3. It's also very good, but maybe it's because of the keycap material, it gets oily after a long time, and some of the letters on the keys are almost worn off (yes, I'm talking about the command key).
This time I chose a Tangerine switch. There are a total of four types of switches, I don't understand these new switches, I only know about Red, Blue, and Brown switches. I just chose a switch that is not too heavy, and it does feel different from the previous Red switch, they say it has a mahjong sound.
It's really good to use, the feel is great, and you can even customize some keys, but I'm too lazy to bother, so I just use it normally. However, there are still some accidental touches, and the size of the keys is slightly different from the previous keyboard, so I need to get used to it.
New Book I Finished Reading#
This week, I finished reading "The Devotion of Suspect X" by Keigo Higashino in just two and a half hours. At first, I was afraid to read this kind of novel because I was afraid that the names of the characters would be too difficult to remember. This book is okay, there are fewer characters, and I remember the characters and the plot quite clearly now. I remember finishing it on the subway home from work. When the two characters cried together at the end, I thought there would be more content afterwards, but the book ended there. After finishing it, I didn't feel satisfied. Instead of calling it a detective novel, it's more like a love story. When the male protagonist was thinking of committing suicide, he saw the female protagonist had the courage to live, and in the end, he wanted to save her with his own life. I remember my heart beating faster when I finished it; at the same time, I felt a bit sad, as if I had lost something. This is probably the feeling of reading a book for myself. If someone else told me the story or explained it in a few minutes on TikTok, I might not have these feelings and thoughts, and I might even see comments like "Homeless person: Why isn't anyone speaking up for me?" in the comment section.
I'm currently reading "To Kill a Mockingbird," which has more characters. I need to take notes on the character relationships while reading. At first, I didn't record anything, and after reading a few pages, I couldn't recognize who was who because in the United States, they directly use people's names, just like in the book, they don't say "my father" or "my brother." So I need to clarify these character relationships first.
Annual Meeting#
On Sunday afternoon, I participated in the company's annual meeting online, but I didn't watch it seriously. I remember the annual meeting two years ago. I fast-forwarded and skipped through the whole afternoon and watched all ten episodes of the first season of "Zombie Campus" on Netflix in one go. I didn't even notice that it had already ended and I was still watching.
I took this time to complete my daily plans, solved a few LeetCode problems, and memorized some vocabulary.
Adjusting my mood, getting ready for the Lunar New Year 🎉
