互联网的最初，从Yahoo 开始，互联网上最有价值的商业模式的底层逻辑一直是信息的排序。Yahoo 那个时代是“专家”帮所有的人排序，每个人消费一样的信息。Google 则是由搜索算法根据查询的关键词对信息进行排序。Facebook，Twitter，微信这种是根据每个人的社会关系来给信息排序。而到了字节跳动，则是由算法根据你自己的兴趣和历史，把信息排序之后推荐给你。

乔治·奥威尔《我为何写作》 1946 https://www.douban.com/note/798756767/?_i=6831779js_iqn0
过去全部十年中，我最想做的，就是将政治性写作变成一种艺术。我的出发点总是感到党派偏见和不公。动笔写一本书时，我不会对自己说：“我要写一本完美的书。”我想写它，是因为有某种谎言我想揭穿，有些事实我想唤起人们的注意，我最初关心的，就是让人们听到我的意见。但如果同时没有一种美学感受，我就不会写一本书，甚或一篇为杂志而写的长文。任何人如果有心详细读一下我写的东西，就会发现即使是纯粹的宣传，里面还是包括很多一个全职的政治家会认为与主题无关的东西。我不能也不愿完全抛弃那个我自孩提时代开始形成的世界观。只要我活着，我就会继续追求文字上的风格，继续热爱大自然，继续乐于欣赏那些实实在在的东西，以及星星点点的无用信息。我想压制自己的这方面是徒劳的。我的工作，是将自己根深蒂固的好恶感与时代强加给我们所有人身上那些基本上是大众的、非个体的活动相调和。
回头看看前面的一两页，我看到我好像制造出了这样一个印象，即我的写作动机完全出自热心公众利益，我不想让这点成为别人对我的最终印象。所有作家都是自负自私，也是懒惰的，在他们各种写作动机的根子里面，还存在一个谜团。写本书是场可怕的、令人疲惫不堪的挣扎，就像很长一段时间得了令身心痛苦的病症。如果不是受某种他既无力抵抗又无法理解的魔鬼迫使，他永远不会做这样一件事。就人们所知，这个魔鬼只不过跟让小孩子号啕以引起别人注意是同样一种本能。但同样正确的是，除非他不停奋力消除自己的个性，否则就写不出任何具有可读性的东西。好的文字就像窗玻璃。我不能十分肯定地说出我的几种动机里哪种最强，但我知道哪种值得遵循。回头看看我的全部作品，我看到在我缺乏政治目的时，写出来的书总无一例外地没有生气，蜕化成华而不实的段落、无意义的句子和装饰性形容词，而且总的说来，是自欺欺人之作。

Interview at the All Things Digital D5 Conference, Steve and Bill Gates spoke with journalists Kara Swisher and Walt Mossberg onstage in May 2007.

Kara Swisher: The first question I was interested in asking is what you think each has contributed to the computer and technology industry— starting with you, Steve, for Bill, and vice versa. Steve Jobs: Well, Bill built the first software company in the industry. And I think he built the first software company before anybody really in our industry knew what a software company was, except for these guys. And that was huge. That was really huge. And the business model that they ended up pursuing turned out to be the one that worked really well for the industry. I think the biggest thing was, Bill was really focused on software before almost anybody else had a clue that it was really the software that— KS: Was important? SJ: That’s what I see. I mean, a lot of other things you could say, but that’s the high-order bit. And I think building a company’s really hard, and it requires your greatest persuasive abilities to hire the best ...

巴菲特致股东信-1976年

笔记：为什么选择轻资产行业：当竞争疯狂时，不会强迫加入降价大战最终选择了费雪的思想，选择能理解的优秀企业，以合理的价格买入并长期拥有翻译：雪球：https://xueqiu.com/6217262310/131440258 备份：https://archive.ph/XLK0S 原文： To the Stockholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc, After two dismal years, operating results in 1976 improved significantly. Last year we said the degree of progress in insurance underwriting would determine whether our gain in earnings would be "moderate" or "major." As it turned out, earnings exceeded even the high end of our expectations. In large part, this was due to the outstanding efforts of Phil Liesche's managerial group at National Indemnity Company. In dollar terms, operating earnings came to $16,073,000, or $16.47 per share. While this is a record figure, we consider return on shareholders' equity to be a much more significant yardstick of economic performance. Here our result was 17.3%, moderately above our long-term average and even further above the average o...

Commencement Address at Stanford University--“Stay hungry. Stay foolish.”

I am honored to be with you today for your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. Truth be told— I never graduated from college. This is the closest I’ve ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That’s it. No big deal. Just three stories. The first story is about connecting the dots. I dropped out of Reed College after the first six months but then stayed around as a drop-in for another eighteen months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out? It started before I was born. My biological mother was a young, unwed graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting...

巴菲特致股东信-1975年

笔记：华盛顿邮报已成为伯克希尔第一重仓股翻译：雪球：https://xueqiu.com/6217262310/131409324 备份：https://archive.ph/4hgK3 原文： To the Stockholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.: Last year, when discussing the prospects for 1975, we stated “the outlook for 1975 is not encouraging.” This forecast proved to be distressingly accurate. Our operating earnings for 1975 were $6,713,592, or $6.85 per share, producing a return on beginning shareholders ’ equity of 7.6%. This is the lowest return on equity experienced since 1967. Furthermore, as explained later in this letter, a large segment of these earnings resulted from Federal income tax refunds which will not be available to assist performance in 1976. On balance, however, current trends indicate a somewhat brighter 1976. Operations and prospects will be discussed in greater detail below, under specific industry titles. Our expectation is that significantly better results in textiles, earnings added from recent acquisitio...

巴菲特致股东信-1973年

笔记：在上一年度预测的今年竞争加剧导致利润下滑，真的发生了翻译Link：雪球：https://xueqiu.com/6217262310/131257618 备份：https://archive.ph/KIfdT 原文： To the Stockholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.: Our financial results for 1973 were satisfactory, with operating earnings of $11,930,592, producing a return of 17.4% on beginning stockholders' equity. Although operating earnings improved from $11.43 to $12.18 per share, earnings on equity decreased from the 19.8% of 1972. This decline occurred because the gain in earnings was not commensurate with the increase in shareholders' investment. We had forecast in last year's report that such a decline was likely. Unfortunately, our forecast proved to be correct. Our textile, banking, and most insurance operations had good years, but certain segments of the insurance business turned in poor results. Overall, our insurance business continues to be a most attractive area in which to employ capital. Management'...

Steve Jobs introduced the iPhone on January 9, 2007.

This is a day I’ve been looking forward to for two and a half years. Link Every once in a while, a revolutionary product comes along that changes everything. And Apple has been— well, first of all, one’s very fortunate if you get to work on just one of these in your career. Apple’s been very fortunate. It’s been able to introduce a few of these into the world. In 1984, we introduced the Macintosh. It didn’t just change Apple, it changed the whole computer industry. In 2001, we introduced the first iPod, and it didn’t just change the way we all listen to music, it changed the entire music industry. Well, today, we’re introducing three revolutionary products of this class. The first one is a widescreen iPod with touch controls. The second is a revolutionary mobile phone. And the third is a breakthrough internet communications device. So, three things: a widescreen iPod with touch controls; a revolutionary mobile phone; and a breakthrough internet communicat...
