I only have a few close friends who have cars in Taiwan, but man most of them want to drive everywhere even when it's horrifically inconvenient to find parking then they complain about the parking cost. Some kind of vehicle-borne illness.

BLUE PRINCE is on sale on Steam - this is the best puzzle game I've ever played. Highly highly recommend. If you haven't seen my posts on it, my wife and I worked on it together, filling up half a notebook in the process, and had an absolute blast.

Took a wonderful little hike up 福州山 today with NTU students and scholars.
This continues my year of being a ball of rage at how good exercise makes me feel after.

"It seems like a marvel of financial engineering: Meta is building a $27 billion data center in Louisiana, financed with debt, and neither the data center nor the debt will be on its own balance sheet."

Favorable treatment off the balance sheet hinges on some convenient assumptions.
