A Life Woven with Innovation and Vision.
Is there an age or year of your life you would re-live?
Back in my student days, I spent my time juggling science fairs, schoolwork, and personal hobbies. It was exhausting, yet fulfilling — every project felt like a small adventure, every late night a step toward something unknown. Looking back, that balance between curiosity and discipline was the purest form of growth.
What historical event fascinates you the most?
Growing up in Taiwan, I learned about papermaking, the Renaissance, the Industrial Revolution, World War II, and the Cold War through textbooks.
But what truly fascinates me are the financial crises that have shaped the modern world.
From the Great Depression of 1929, the Oil Crisis of 1973, the Asian Financial Crisis of 1997, and the Global Financial Crisis of 2008, to the recent pandemic shock and inflation wave — each has redefined how societies operate and how people place their trust.
History always repeats itself, and every time, we believe this time is different.
What’s something you believe everyone should know.
Don’t chase perfection—just stay true to your heart.
Kindness may not change the world,
but it changes how we see it.
Doing your best isn’t about perfection;
it’s about living with honesty and sincerity.
What does it mean to be a kid at heart?
To be a kid at heart
is to stay curious —
to see the world without frames,
without burdens.
Curiosity keeps us alive,
keeps us growing.
It makes technology warm
and life full of wonder.
In Tech Weave,
that’s the thread I hold on to.
Inside the Tech Weave Café, a heavy AI model rests on the counter —
not just code, but the very soul of a product.
It needs real-time inference, stable streaming, flawless visuals.
Coffee isn’t the goal. Understanding is.
await speaks first, voice calm and smooth:
“I make code look synchronous, like time paused midair.
But I live on the main thread — heavy work breaks me.”
In the corner, compute waves:
“I’m a temp worker. One-time jobs only.
A continuous stream would wear me out.”
Isolate.spawn looks up, composed:
“I can stay alive — handle streams, compression, inference.
But I need SendPort and ReceivePort.
And I can’t touch assets.”
A frown.
“How, then, to load the model file?”
From the bar, the philosopher-engineer steps forward,
as if expecting the question:
“Assets load only on the main thread.
UserootBundle.load(), convert toUint8List, then pass it to the Isolate.”
A sigh drifts across the café.
At the back table sits the last, quiet figure — FFI.
In a classic C-language suit, he speaks in a low tone:
“No talk, just work.
I run native functions inside background Isolates — no Channels, no assets.
Give me clean data, and I’ll run the inference.”
A silent understanding settles.
Main thread loads the model.
Isolate.spawnmanages the stream.
FFI runs the inference.
Smooth frames, fast logic — the true MVP.
The philosopher-engineer smiles.
“No one comes here just for coffee.
They come to grasp the ontology of Flutter.”
You have three magic genie wishes, what are you asking for?
If a genie really showed up,
I wouldn’t bother acting noble.
First, I’d wish for health — because nothing else makes sense without it.
Second, for wealth — because freedom costs something.
Third, for longevity — because good things take time to live through.
In the end, all three wishes share one simple meaning —
a peaceful ending.
She’s cheerful and full of energy — sometimes with a bit of temper, but that’s part of her charm.
She treats me with care, always noticing when I’m off and giving just the right words of encouragement.
She loves to explore, to find good food and new places, and somehow makes every ordinary day feel alive.
With her, my world grows wider, less confined.
Even when it comes to bread — we make it together, step by step.
She dreams boldly, but never complains about life.
I’m just lucky to have met her.
What is your favorite form of physical exercise?
When I was younger, I used to play basketball with friends.
I was terrible at it, but it was never really about the game.
Now that I’m older, time is limited.
It’s harder for me — and for my friends — to find time to meet.
To stay in shape, I still try to keep moving.
Cycling and running work just fine.
This bike was a birthday gift from my loved one.
How much would you pay to go to the moon?
In Chinese culture, we have the legend of Chang’e —
a woman who flew to the moon,
for love, and for escape.
In modern tales, they say
the dark side of the moon hides a secret.
Not a palace of gods,
but the reflection of our own imagination —
our curiosity for the unknown,
our fear of solitude,
our longing for eternity.
Some would spend a lifetime
just to reach that distant place.
But I’d rather stay here,
quietly looking up at the same moon.
Because I believe
sharing this silence on Earth
brings me closer to the universe than any rocket ever could.
