One day when I was sitting in the office, my ears suddenly tingled. It was not the first time that I had tinnitus, so I didn't pay attention to it. In the past, only waiting patiently for a few days, the tinnitus would naturally stop. But this time it seems different. It seems that the tinnitus has not stopped for a week.

So I began to doubt whether it was caused by folliculitis a while ago. Last Tuesday, I went to the nearby Haidian Hospital to see a doctor. My idea was to get some anti-inflammatory drugs. But the reality is cruel

The doctor looked at my ear first and said that the tympanic membrane "only has a small part of depression", which is normal and acceptable, so he ruled out the possibility of ear pressure changes due to the redness and swelling of the nasal mucosa caused by a cold. As the infection is on the right side of the face, the tinnitus is on the left side. Therefore, tinnitus in the left ear is not caused by infection in the right side, which excludes the possibility of otitis media caused by folliculitis and inflammation of the right cheek. Finally, the doctor asked me to think about my work and rest these days. In fact, my life has not changed much, and I can't infer the cause of tinnitus at the moment. As I mentioned that I often go to bed at midnight, the doctor suspected that I didn't have a good rest, and suggested that I go to have a hearing test.

On February 3, the hearing test report in Haidian Hospital showed that the left ear hearing was significantly reduced.

My right ear is OK, so the hearing test results can hear sounds below 25db, and all frequencies are OK. However, the recognition of left and right low-frequency sounds has decreased significantly The hearing of 250Hz low-frequency sound is only 45db, and the hearing of 500Hz sound is only 40db.

Therefore, I was judged as "sudden deafness".

The treatment plan given by the doctor is a week of injection, intravenous injection of "alprostadil" with normal saline, intramuscular injection of "cobalamine adenosine" with "vitamin B1".

Pay the money, take the medicine, and inject the first injection.

Haidian Hospital is a Grade II hospital, but the display on the gate says that since 2015 On the New Year's Day of, the hospital began to charge fees according to the standards of Grade III hospitals. Although there is no meaning of distrust, the word "deaf" makes me a little panic. I'm still young, ladies and gentlemen. I think I can still save... With the attitude of trying, I decided to waste the medical resources of the Grade III A hospital ("Grade III A hospital") in the Sino Japanese Friendship Hospital near my home.

The third class hospital is not ordinary. I will go to register at 8:00 on Thursday morning. I was told that I only have the afternoon number. So I first went to Haidian Hospital to get the injection of the day, and then I went back to the Sino Japanese Hospital to wait for the doctor to see me. It took me more than two hours to make a round trip between two districts in a big city. Unfortunately, although I had the courage to hang up the expert number, the expert was still on the operating table and did not return to the clinic in time. Since it was time consuming to travel to and from the two hospitals in Chaoyang, Haidian, and I had an appointment for a week, I had to wait for three hours before returning this number and temporarily evacuated.

But obviously you can't just give up, can you? So, before leaving the hospital, I consulted the International Department about the registration method.

On Friday, I went to the company to report early, and then went to Haidian Hospital for injection. Then I went back to the International Department of the Sino Japanese Hospital and saw the doctor smoothly after completing the registration procedures.

The doctor of Grade III A hospital gave the same conclusion as that of Grade II hospital, which was "sudden deafness", and still recommended that I continue to use the same injection. Maybe I thought I should do something. The doctor ordered me another "Prednisone Acetate Tablets" for five days, let me eat them these days, and then go to his place for recheck next Wednesday.

By the way, the charge of the International Department of the Sino Japanese Hospital: the registration fee is 300 yuan, the examination fee is 160 yuan, but the drug fee is only one yuan and four cents

Then there was a chaotic weekend, during which the two injections were in Haidian Hospital and the Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital near my home.

The next Tuesday, we used up all the seven day injections prescribed by Haidian Hospital. I feel better, but I can still hear the buzz in my left ear at a certain time. I think the doctor will continue to give me the same prescription, so I decided to register on Wednesday.

I went to the hospital early on Wednesday morning. I had the experience of the last time and completed the process of registration, doctor's visit, payment and examination very familiar. The result this time looks very good. Although the left ear's hearing of low-frequency sounds is not good enough, it has exceeded 25 db. In other words, I'm not deaf anymore.

Hearing Test Result 02/17

The second test of hearing has improved significantly.

The doctor looked at the report and got two conclusions: 1. He was still young and could recover; 2. The treatment was not too late, and the rescue measures were timely.

I would like to thank the seniors who urged me to go to the hospital as soon as possible. If it were not for their various reminders, I would probably have delayed the treatment, and the tinnitus might become the kind that accompanies my life. So if you also have tinnitus, remember to go to the hospital to see a doctor as soon as possible. According to the doctor of Grade III A hospital, the best treatment time window is seven to ten days after tinnitus. Fortunately, I caught up with him. I was a little scared when I thought about it.

I paid for The on Kickstarter After the mPrinter project, I found Projecteo Project. Because the investment threshold is not high, I subsequently placed an order to support it. At that time, I didn't have time to share it in detail, but it arrived yesterday. Today, I will write about it.

If you like it Projecteo， Actually, you can follow their website getprojecteo.com, which is still satisfied Backers on Kickstarter At this stage, you can't buy directly yet. But I have got them all, so I believe that the hardest time has ended and the dawn is right in front of me.

The project initiator is in Kickstarter He talked about his mental journey when doing this project. He bought a Lulai slide projector and was deeply fascinated. Human beings are so cute that they always have some nostalgic thoughts at a certain time. In this case, some people will pay for second-hand goods, while others will start to make a new toy. Fortunately, the project initiator is hands-on, and he chose to make a new toy by himself. Now, this project not only satisfies my hobbies, but also may solve some employment problems.

After placing an order, you need to use the Instagram account on their website to authorize login, and then select nine photos you like. They will process these nine photos into one 35mm positive, and then use a specially designed machine to cut out the printed negative, and finally put it in a special photo roller. So, the Projecteo you got Including: a body, a set of batteries, and a set of mini slides.

Let's see, has this created some employment opportunities?

Back to my hand this mini projector. It is small and cute, and can be powered by only three button batteries. If you pull up the curtains and turn off the lights, it can also project your photos onto the wall or ceiling. Not only that, but also the nine photos can be played in a mechanical way to further feel the retro tone brought by the analog signal.

Like all toys, it feels a bit boring after playing for a while. This kind of toy should be more about sharing, but I only have a mini slide. More than 2000 photos should be used well, so I wait slowly Projecteo opens the production of mini slides. This is a bit like the camera business. The machine itself can be guaranteed. Film and printing are the way to make money.

Finally, I want to say to Team Projecteo: You're awesome!: D

Hello

Cover

This is an interesting collection. The author passed 52 A short article explains some common thinking traps in simple terms. I think if you are willing to take some time to challenge yourself, or test yourself, then this book is worth buying and reading.

Please note that this passage does not belong to this article. It is a meaningless passage specially added to test the reference function.

In fact, this book is @Fenng He said it was worth recommending and found 20% of an e-book platform Exchange code. On the one hand, I am not a user of that platform, and on the other hand, he said that he would give priority to regular customers, so I went directly to Amazon to search. Luckily, I found the Kindle of this book soon this time edition. Click to buy, and it will be downloaded back in less than a minute.

The Art of Conscious Thinking

At that time, I spent several minutes carefully reading the preface and the first article, "Survival Errors", and felt that it was a good book, so I went to Weibo and Twitter They recommended it on the website. At the end of the week, I finally took the time to finish reading and write another article.

According to my previous habit, I should buy the original version to read such translations. I bought the Chinese version this time because I can't read the original. Judging from its name, this is a German book. From the perspective of the catalogue, the scope of this book should be beyond the review. Of course, the biggest reason is that I'm lazy. In fact, I know that there is an English translation in Amazon. But when I think I can read more efficiently in my mother tongue, sometimes I really want to buy domestic publications for convenience.

The first feeling after reading the book is that it is a good book. Then I felt that the title of the book was a bit exaggerated. If I had to find fault, I thought it would be more appropriate to call it "A concise guide to sober thinking". There is nothing in the whole book to show "art", but concise and practical ideas are enough 52.

But anyway, this 52 Most of the ideas are very useful. The author does not hesitate to peel off the skin of the illusion of thinking and explain one by one in a clear and concise way. In fact, these false appearances exist in daily life. The author not only led me to grasp these problems, but also described the reasons and countermeasures so frankly. I can't think of any better way. Anyway, this book is very interesting to read. Each article is not long, and the appearance of two to three pages is also suitable for reading in fragmented time.

However, the author also acknowledges that "sober thinking is luxury", so there is no need to hold on to yourself in the case of "less possible damage". Too much prevention of thinking mistakes is often a matter of getting into a cow's horns and not getting out. Life should be easier, or it will be too tiring.

It is different from the Kindle books I have read before. Maybe this book will stay in my Kindle for a while. I should find this book from 52 Read one more story at random.

If you also want to read this book, you can buy the Kindle version at Amazon for 12 yuan.

Finally, the layout of this book is really maddening. Each story has its own title, but this book uses pictures to show these titles. I can't see it clearly. I must look closely. You know, Kindle The picture on cannot be enlarged. What's more, these stories are numbered, but the numbered parts on the pictures are in white that can't be seen clearly

In addition, there are at least two mistakes in this book, which are illogical. I have submitted an application for revision. I hope someone will see it.

I am not in the Bay Area, but my love for Silicon Valley companies always gives me the motivation to find something to read. I have read many books about these companies and learned many stories behind them. The hottest Silicon Valley company in November is Twitter， The company, founded in 2006, finally went public. Booksellers also take advantage of Twitter The history book was launched on the day of listing. As a Silicon Valley company history enthusiast, as well as an old Twitter user and social networking practitioner, there is no reason not to buy it. So it was I made a pre order on the Kindle, and it was pushed to me on the day of launch. It only took less than a minute to download it.

Nick Bilton's work Incubation Twitter

The history of Twitter is not long, and so is this book. The book is divided into five parts, and each part is divided into several sections. Although the author does not use every paragraph 140 I can read every section in 15 minutes. This makes it easy for me, a foreigner whose native language is not English, to read. I can finish a section by finding a piece of time.

"History always belongs to the winner". I even think that modern history is basically written by the winner himself. For example, I thought there was only Jack on Twitter Dorsey, Ev Williams and Biz Stone are just three co founders. After reading this book, there is actually a Noah Glass's name should not be forgotten. Although the above three co founders did not think Noah Glass had made much contribution, at least Twitter was initially A project of Odeo Company founded by Noah. Moreover, the name of Twitter was also invented by Noah.

Shortly after Twitter was founded, Noah was ruled out, and Jack became the last straw for Ev to drive Noah away. When Jack is When Ev was appointed CEO of Twitter, I don't think he would be replaced by Ev later. But Ev will not know that he was willing to leave his job to keep Jack's position Biz will protect Ev in the same way. Later, Biz also left the company.

Leave to leave, but later the story is different. Noah didn't recover after he left. It took many years to face the truth. Jack After I left, I thought about calling back. Two years later, I really succeeded. Not only that, he also owns another star startup company Square， The goal of life seems to have been achieved. Ev began to revitalize his incubator company Obvious, continue to start businesses and change the world. And Biz It seems that he enjoys the time with his family. I haven't seen his thoughts on work yet.

But the author turned his pen and began to discuss the meaning of life. Then he found that only Jack was single... At this time, the author quoted the astronauts Hadfield said that "loneliness does not depend on where you are, but on your attitude". Okay, Twitter At the beginning of the design, there was another purpose, which was to fight against "loneliness"

After reading the whole book, I feel that many doubts have been solved. Previously, the truth was erased by these people because PR worked too hard. Fortunately, Nick Such a writer must go back to a "good man's life is safe".
