01/18: Trip to Hong Kong #2
It's 5:30am in the morning. The sky is still dark. I pull on a sweater and close the door behind me.
Exit the lift, get on to the street. It's all dead quiet on the street. I just can't imagine the same street is full of people during the day. Actually, there is a janitor pulling garbages and putting them on a cart, under a yellowish street light.
Heading to a random direction, cross a street, turn a corner and see some graffiti on the wall. I thought it is a North America thing
Walking on passed by a karaoke, some young people just exit and walking to the MTR subway. It's 5 in the morning, but I already feel the city coming alive.
Keep on walking, under the yellow street light, people are standing at bus stop. I wonder if they just come off a night shift or heading to work.
Newspapers are already arrived and stack by the news stand waiting for sorting. The city is well awake, under the dark sky.
It's dead quiet by Times Square, a old lady is setting a street stand to sell some old stuff.
A bakery is opened, a small eatery place is serving good old Chinese breakfast, a mom and his son is waiting by a bus stop to go to school. All is surrounded by the noise of the crossing signal for the blinds.
For window shopping, that's always a Smart dealer near by. The neo light reflecting on love in the dark. No matter how modern the city is, there is alway a borderline population that sleep in the tunnel under the star. It's an example of how wide the gap between the rich and the poor.
The sky is turning bright bit by bit, the cityscape is gearing up for another day.
There is a by a primary school student on China's first taikonaut.
It's a city of "one country, two systems" at work.

01/17: Session #2
The weather tonight is typical Ottawa cold-like-hell; icy, bone chilling, skin biting. It's not the worst, but definitely not a warm night. After the session, I can feel the warm blood rushing to my toe... it's cold!
The focus in this session is advanced sliding turn with timing and coordination.

01/14: Think and Execute ls -l
I was so envy Tom C. using the 3D/holographic API in "Minority Report". It's such a nice user interface.
But this is better; just think and computer execute your wish!
It will be really cool to able to control computers by thinking, especially now this can be done without putting a chip in your head.
Even better if we can pipe the computer screen back to my brain without have to get output via analog device, aka my eyes. It just like Bateau in Ghost in the Shell in reality.
Even better than better, if we can preserve someone's brain out of his/her body, great experience can be preserved.... just like in Futurama. (The head in the jar celebrities) It's all good for humanity.
I'm just wondering what we can do when plug such a I/O interface to a coma patient.
