An AI that refuses to chat: What the heck is Jev?

Google's booth at WAIC 2026 was the only exhibitor in the entire venue where visitors couldn't use a single one of its products. Device, network, account, payment — break any one of the four walls and the whole chain breaks.

WAIC 2026: A Trade Fair of Symbols

From a game of chess nobody was playing, I saw the technology and the symbols on the show floor. What an expo puts on display is the most tradable part of AI — not necessarily the most valuable part.

A 'Jichang' for a Few Yuan a Month — You Really Think It Lives on Subscription Fees?

Jichang, commercial VPNs, self-hosted nodes — the difference between the three tiers isn't price, it's who you're entrusting all your internet traffic to. This piece lays out the trust chain clearly.

Some Meals I Ate in Korea

Not a “top ten must-eat” list — just some meals I actually ate in Korea and can still taste: seolnongtang, hanjeongsik, monkfish, jokbal, offal soup, and a jar of chili oil that arrived at the table before I asked.

Straight A+ for a Semester: I Hired a Research Team as My Tutor for $20

From the perspective of a DSP developer and long-term user, a candid look at a dozen audio interfaces: drivers, routing, preamps, stability, and the real experience behind RME, Antelope, Topping, MOTU, and MidiPlus.
