ByteDance announced that the Feishu product team and the Doubao product team are being merged into a new Doubao product team. My first reaction to the news was a bit of melancholy — the internet is like a giant steamroller. Digital tenant farmers, exploited by monopoly giants, riding the express train of the times, ready to be thrown off at any moment. In my eyes, all closed-source software and services can have only one final destination: the trash heap of history. The only thing humans truly grow is their inner wisdom; the only thing humans truly possess is their inner emotions.

On 08.12.12, I watched The Fountain — a truly rare gem of a film! Through a unique story, the film recounts the protagonist’s eternal love for his wife, and reveals the meaning of life and the value of death.
