Shihu Garden, the true historical gem (Part 2) 十笏园

IMG_20171225_153106~2.jpg

This garden is so big that we spent about 3 hours in it which is more than expected. It is so beautiful that we try to finish every explanation notes, explore every corners and alleys just to make sure we don’t miss out anything.

十笏园说大不大,但是我们抱着不错过任何一个细节的态度,看完每一个解说贴,发掘每一条小巷和角落,最终花了将近三个小时。还是很值得的。

The biggest drawback travelling in the winter season is that it is so cold to get the naked hand out of the warm pocket in order to take pictures or record. Wearing glove will hindering much the detailed operation of the fingers, not feasible.

冬天旅游最大的坏处就是太冷,冷到让人不想把赤裸的双手从温暖的口袋里拿出来拍照录影等。戴手套也很不实际,对于强调手指细微动作的操作也很麻烦。

Nearby the Shihu Garden there is a Guandi temple. Not as big as the garden but I suppose they are bout the same age. Ancient, and solemn.

附近还有一间我觉得可能同样古老的关帝庙。没十笏园那么大,但是多了一份庄严和清净。

Shihu Garden, the true historical gem (Part 1) 十笏园

We were having a great time in this 500 year old building. The first full chinese style old building I’ve ever visited. Literally every scene could be a great spot for capturing. Trully antique and unique.

十笏园经过五百年的岁月沉淀,再加上适当的修复翻新,是我看过最古色古香的古建筑。每一个角落和视角基本上都可以是摄影的好材料,可说是全无死角。

The best part is we might be the only visitor inside this paid museum. Not sure it was due to the extremr -6℃ temperature or the locals just getting used to this precious gem. We were definitely glad so that there is no crowd for us to skip while taking pictures, less noise to deal with as well.

好上加好的是,我们可能是园里唯一的游客。这可能是由于零下六度的酷寒气温,又或是当地人最这里的美早已见怪不怪。无论如何,拍照录影无需迁就熙熙攘攘的人群,和清幽的环境是可遇不可求的。

The funny thumb girl

IMG_20171223_133907.jpg

The thumb girl, who was born in a flower and as big as a thumb. Always yearning for sunshine and will never surrender to the darkness. She fought hard for her life and showed the evel her…middle finger?

Located at the Princess Villa at Qingdao Badaguan.

只有一只拇指大小的姑娘,在花丛中出生。凭着善良的心永远向往阳光,绝不向黑暗低头。对于黑势力,她表示…中指?

在位于青岛的八大关公主楼看到有趣的一幕。

What about your cryptocurrencies when you are dead? 加密遗嘱

TY

I’m a big time cryptocurrency investor. With that said, I have
80% of my net worth invested in various kind of digital coins. The return so far has been great and I’m so glad how this technology has lifted me up financially. However, there is one things that keep bothering.

What if I be gone suddenly one day?

The purpose of cryptocurrency is to decentralized the centralized, unbank the banked. The owner of the coins will be the bank of thier own. All the passwords, recovery seeds, private keys or any form of ownership to the virtual assets should never be revealed to others.

Life is more fragile than we thought it is. If I got struck by a truck tomorrow, what will happend to my cryptocurrencies? They are forever gone in the sea of blockchains.

We used to delegate lawyer to enforce our heritance assignment after our last day. Lawyer or the law firm who execute your will is absolutely a form of centralised authority. Would you pass them all your wallet privates keys and count on them to pass it to your heirs? Definitely not, unless you’re nuts.

Would it be great if we can make use of the power of the blockchain, or smart contract?

For example, we can set a smart contract that in case this particular wallet isn’t active for the last 1000 days, a packet of preset credentials will be unlocked and send to a designated person. Now we’ll have a working crypto will!

What do you think?

我是加密货币的忠实拥护者,大部分的财产都放在了币圈里,目前的回报也相当可观。有时却也不禁想,要是有天我不在了这些投资怎么办?

加密货币最大的目标就是去中心化,干掉银行,自己做自己的银行。在所有投资的项目里,投资者原则上都应该持有自己的钱包私钥,恢复种子,或是任何形式的持有资格。这些绝密资料除非你想转手让人,不然决不能让除了自己以外的人知道。

生命比我们想象的脆弱,要是明天我就被货车给撞了,我所投资的货币们何去何从?答案就是永远留在区块链的大海里,不再会被任何人所发现。

传统上遗嘱的执行都是交由有执行权力的律师或是相关法律企业。但是律师本身就是中心化的典型例子之一,你会不会想把自己所有的私钥都打包交给他们,好让他们在你不在人世以后把这些财产交给承继人?我是不会的。这样做的下场恐怕是我还没老时那些货币很有可能就“被黑”了。

如果能利用区块链的力量在这件事上就会是最好的。

因为区块链就是可以去掉点与点之间不必要的信任,让透明的系统处理一切。例子的话,可以使用智能合约观察一个钱包最后一千天的活动。要是没有任何活动的迹象,断定持有人不在世而解除合约,打包加密在里头的信息就会自动传给之前定好的某人。这加密遗嘱的概念应该挺不错的,似乎现在还没有这样的 project 在进行?

你怎么说?
