This article explores that hypothesis, delving into the length, compression, and meaning of life, in an attempt to answer one question: How long is our life, really?

AI & Layoff
Layoffs are hardly a new phenomenon. Every year, we hear news of large corporations "optimizing organizational structures" and cutting labor costs—it feels like an annual, fixed program. The standard reasons are always the same: economic downturns, industry transformation, shrinking markets, corporate restructuring, or the classic move to please investors and boost shareholder returns.

Past Embraced
I remember the me of my youth—a version of myself driven by a fierce desire to leave no room for regret. I marshaled every ounce of courage I possessed and set out to chase things that, in truth, were never meant to be mine.

Marriage Math
Marriage is in a strange, awkward spot these days. On one hand, young people openly dismiss it; on the other, most middle-aged adults are already deep within it, and most of those same young people will eventually tie the knot. Marriage is like money—many scorn it, yet most are compelled to chase it.

Office Firefighter
I used to be that person—the office "firefighter." If a colleague couldn't finish their work, my section chief dumped it on me. If a colleague messed up a task, my section chief dumped it on me. And if a colleague simply didn't want to do a task? You guessed it, the chief still dumped it on me. I became the walking, talking embodiment of the company's emergency response team.

Trust, Betrayed
Infidelity is a painful reality that many couples face in modern marriage. Adultery is not a new topic; it has shadowed the institution of marriage since its very beginning. Monogamy is a creation of human culture, designed to maintain social stability, but it can never completely suppress primal human drives.

Affair Goes Public
My buddy was dating his girlfriend for over two years. They seemed genuinely in love—the kind of couple everyone wants to hang out with. Things were serious; they had met each other’s parents and were actively planning their wedding date. They were literally discussing when to get their marriage license.

The Unseen Code
The world operates by a hidden code: the common sense of the upper echelon is often the impenetrable secret of the lower. The gap in cognition and mindset between different social classes is often more difficult to cross than the gap in wealth itself.

AI Phone Reality
Honestly, when I first heard the term "AI Phone," I thought it was a bit of an exaggeration. Back then, AI felt like just another feature—a small part of the phone, not a defining characteristic.
