The cover image is from a purchased cake, to make up for the small regret of not having a cake for my wife and my birthdays last year.
Tracing the Footprints of the Heart means that the footprints of the soul circulate with the shadow, recording, tracing, and contemplating one's inner world. At the same time, interesting information seen during the week is recommended.
This week was a bit easier, but I didn't get up early or exercise for the past few days. I have been a bit slack, so I will start getting up early again tomorrow.
Algorithm Competition#
Today, I participated in my first algorithm competition on LC and solved two problems, which I am quite satisfied with. I have also sporadically solved some problems before. I will participate every week from now on to keep my brain active.
Interestingly, I completed the first problem in 11 minutes. When I returned to the competition homepage, I saw that some experts had already completed 3 problems. They are truly terrifying.
This week, I read an article by Ling Shen on how to scientifically increase rating. It was the first time I learned about solving problems based on rating. Previously, I solved problems based on their types or recommended by others, including easy and difficult ones. I didn't feel like it improved my skills much. So, I can use this method to solve problems that are 100 points higher than my own competition score, solve more, consolidate more, and summarize more.
Don't Memorize Vocabulary#
This week, I joined a team on Don't Memorize Vocabulary, but for two consecutive days, some teammates failed to complete the first-day check-in task, resulting in the failure of the team. I guess I'll continue solo in the future.
Cubox#
I subscribed to the annual membership of Cubox, which I have been using to save articles for later reading and collecting recommended content. This time, because I switched back to Google Chrome, I didn't want to keep importing and exporting bookmarks, so I created bookmarks🔖 using Cubox. I installed the Cubox extension in the browser and typed "c" in the address bar, followed by the tab key, to search for bookmarks or other content stored in Cubox. It's quite convenient.
I have a question about the pricing strategy. The annual membership of Cubox on the Mac version is more than twice as cheap as on an Android phone. I wonder what the pricing strategy is based on.
