Shanghai Museum Egyptian Exhibition: A Scam#
It can be said that this Egyptian exhibition is a pure marketing scam.
- Expensive price, 149 yuan per person
- Few and mediocre exhibits, none of the exhibits you are familiar with
- Poor tour route due to the large number of people
- Full of pre-event marketing, purely a scam
A few months ago, Douyin (Chinese version of TikTok) heavily promoted it, mainly focusing on a few points:
- Middle East war, Egypt entrusted, almost all cultural relics were brought to China
- Various mummies, Tutankhamun, masks
In reality,
There is not a single mummy of a person, only coffins, but there are a few mummy cats
Many things can be touched outside, suspected to be new
No exhibition of some Egyptian god artifacts
Too many people, many children and student groups with free tickets, noisy and unable to carefully view the exhibits
Mummy cat
Blue hippo is very eye-catching
Man!
Amun
Cat god
Coffin

💭 Excerpts#
Interview Experience Sharing#
Meituan#
The Meituan interview lasted about forty minutes, with detailed questions throughout. I finished the interview sweating and felt like I couldn't pass. Let's take a look at the interview experience.
- How do you usually deliver meals? I answered that I would just grab the handlebars and go.
- What would you do if it started raining while delivering food? I answered that I would find a place to take cover and then asked what to do if the order exceeded the time limit. I couldn't answer that...
- If there is a place with a lot of orders and multiple floors in the same building, what could be the situation? I couldn't answer and just made up something about a party. Does anyone know the answer?
- What would you do if you arrived at the restaurant but the food wasn't ready yet? I answered that I would wait and then felt that this answer wasn't good enough, so I added that I might urge the restaurant...
- Have you ever considered using multiple phones during delivery? I said that I only have one delivery account, so there is no need to use multiple phones. The interviewer didn't seem satisfied.
- What would you do if you delivered the food but the customer didn't come to pick it up? Would you wait? I said I would call the customer to urge them, and if the customer still didn't come, I would leave the food at the designated location and take a photo before leaving. Then the interviewer asked if I had considered the possibility of the food being lost and what to do if it was lost. I fell into another trap...
- Have you ever delivered the wrong order? I said I haven't encountered this situation in reality, and the interviewer was not satisfied... I don't understand, do I have to have actual experience in solving mistakes? Isn't it better if there are no mistakes...
- What would you do if the food box is full but you still accept an order and can't fit it? I said that I usually check the capacity of the food box before accepting a new order, and I will only accept a new order if there is space. Then the interviewer asked if this would affect the efficiency of accepting orders and what to do if another rider took the order. I fell into another trap...
- Have you ever sorted the food during delivery? I said that I usually have two food boxes on my electric bike, with the one in the front for food with soup or easy to spill, and the one in the back for drier food. Finally, I managed to answer one question.
- I looked at the fastest delivery I made and asked why I delivered it in 10 seconds. Because the customer was inside the store and ordered takeout to use a coupon... I guess this order was a bit suspicious, but I didn't have any other impressive orders to talk about.
Ele.me#
Interviewer: I saw from your resume that you have two and a half years of experience delivering food. Can you briefly explain how you usually deliver food?
Me: First, I accept orders on the platform, then I go to the restaurant to pick up the food, and after picking up the food, I ride an electric bike to the customer's address and notify the customer to pick up the food.
Interviewer: So you also use electric bikes for delivery. Can you explain the working principle of electric bikes?
Me: The working principle of electric bikes is that the lithium battery releases the stored electrical energy, which is then converted into mechanical energy of the motor through the electronic control system, and the motor drives the mechanical structure of the electric bike to move.
Interviewer: So you use Yadea and Shenyuan electric bikes. It seems that our technology stacks don't match. Let's end the interview here. We will notify you of the interview results in a few days.

Haven't made it to SearchGPT? Get to know this domestic open-source alternative that is better than Perplexity!#
The MindSearch framework, developed by a research team from the University of Science and Technology of China and the Shanghai AI Laboratory, is a "thinking and searching" system. It uses intelligent agents to understand your needs and provide you with fresh information gathered from the internet.
- Paper link: https://arxiv.org/abs/2407.20183
- Project homepage: https://mindsearch.netlify.app/
If you ask Perplexity.ai "Which marksman is the strongest in the current season of King of Glory?" it will directly search for the answer and summarize the existing replies. If you give the same question to MindSearch, it will break down the question into a logical chain: "Which season is the current season?" and "What indicators can be used to measure the strength of marksman in King of Glory?" It will then summarize the answers it can find.
It's a good idea, but unfortunately, the demo website is not accessible. I'll try to deploy it later and give it a try.
Online Video Download Plugin#
It can handle almost any video that can be played (on a computer browser, not on a phone...), including many online course videos.
It's easy to use, just click the cat's paw button on a webpage where a video can be played (while it's playing):
Then choose to download. The cat's paw can automatically merge video clips into an mp4 file.

I'll give it a try.
Russ Cox, Technical Lead of Google Go Team for 12 Years, Steps Down, Microsoft, Huawei, and Others Express Gratitude#
Russ Cox, the technical lead of the Google Go team for 12 years, suddenly announced his stepping down. In an email to the "golang-dev" group on August 2nd, he announced that starting from September 1st, Austin Clements will take over as the technical lead of Go, including the Google Go team and the entire Go project. Russ Cox himself will not leave the Go project.
As for why he stepped down, Russ Cox explained:
Technical leadership, like any leadership position, is a service role, not an honorary title. I have been leading the Go project for more than 12 years, serving everyone and striving to create the right conditions for them to do their best.
Large projects like Go definitely benefit from a stable leadership, but they can also benefit from changes in leadership. New leaders bring new advantages and perspectives. For Go, I think stability from a leader for more than 12 years is enough; it's time for someone new to take on this role.
I think the "BDFL" (Benevolent Dictator For Life) model is unhealthy for individuals or projects. It doesn't create space for new leaders. It doesn't provide room for the project to grow.
I think Python has benefited greatly from Guido (the father of Python) stepping down in 2018, and for years I have been thinking that we should eventually change the leadership of Go.
It can be changed to an advisory role.
