直到看見出家的新聞，才知道蔡志忠是台灣人。小時候去圖書館，他的那一排漫晝諸子袋裝小書，印象很深。
蔡志忠由1981年開始有作品。85年《莊子說》代表作，後來的《老子說》《孫子兵法》，我都有看過。
上網找蔡志忠的資料，比如他說，只花1%時間去畫，其他99%都在編故事，都很認同。
蔡志忠63年出道（15歲），71年任電視美指，76年創辦卡通公司，81年導演第一部電影。
最估唔到係，90年減少創作，先用3年研究佛學，再用4年學電腦，98年起轉攻物理學，翌年去台大學高等微積分，前前後後，自我閉關了10年，後來發表了圖文並茂的《東方宇宙》。
蔡志忠曾說，可以用101種方法，證明愛因斯坦的時間論是錯的。不管挑戰成功與否，敢這樣挑戰權威，還是很值得鼓掌。
他對書的解析也是一絕：未來書的定義不再是一本是200頁，或是20萬個字，它可能是50個PPT，50格畫面，講一個概念。 https://bit.ly/38PYADd
英國最近至禁揸車用手機
點解遲香港足足20年？
我認為同個人自由有關
點解遲香港足足20年？
我認為同個人自由有關
舉例英國沒有身份證
市民出街唔駛自證身份
警察唔得動輒查你證
恣意將良民變疑犯
回頭睇 香港推緊健康碼
智能身份證內建RFID
周街大大小小的鏡頭
數碼人民幣(港幣)最終亦會嚟
其實好多政府都收個人信息
芬蘭開放健康數據俾Startup科研
市政府收集個人出行資料
以獎品/研究扣稅鼓勵減碳排放
一個得人信任同冇人信任嘅政府
收集個人資料 自不然係天壤之別
// 1950年曾有個著名案件，一位開乾洗店的威爾科克斯先生（Clarence Wilcox）駕車被警察攔住，要求看他的身份證。他不肯拿出來，官司最後一直打到高級法庭。
坐聽此案的戈達德（Goddard）大法官說，身份證確令公眾反感，“常會把守法良民變成犯法的人”，他裁定把威爾科克斯無罪釋放，之後不久，新上台的丘吉爾（Winston Churchill）保守黨政府立法取消了身份證制度。
丘吉爾當時的競選口號就是“讓人民獲自由”，取消身份證和定量供給要的就是像征戰爭年代對國民約束控制的結束，之後半個世紀大家都把不帶身份證當作理所當然的公民權 //

Can we break bad habits by being more curious about them? Psychiatrist Judson Brewer studies the relationship between mindfulness and addiction — from smoking to overeating to all those other things we do even though we know they’re bad for us:
Instead of fighting our brain (cognitive control)
Try to be “Curious”
Understand it in a deeper level
Ask yourself what your bad habit is really like
i.e. What’s Smoking really taste like?
Why my body has such “Urge”?
Notice the urge
Get Curious
Feel the joy of letting go
And Repeat.
