## [《An Immense World》读书笔记](https://blog.incfly.org/ai-notes/2026-08-an-immense-world-notes/)

_2026-08-17 · Incfly Thoughts_

这份笔记按化学感知、视觉、颜色、疼痛、温度、触觉、振动与声音，整理书中最值得继续追问的科学问题，并连接已经展开的独立文章。

## [不同动物为什么会生活在不同的温度世界](https://blog.incfly.org/ai-notes/2026-08-why-animals-live-in-different-temperature-worlds/)

_2026-08-17 · Incfly Thoughts_

在一间 4°C 的人工冬眠室里，人穿着短袖会立刻搓手取暖。十三纹地松鼠（thirteenlined ground squirrel）却蜷成一团，体温也降到约 4°C。它夏季每秒跳动五次以上的心脏，此时一分钟只跳五次。

## [大王乌贼为什么需要足球大的眼睛](https://blog.incfly.org/ai-notes/2026-08-why-giant-squid-have-soccer-ball-sized-eyes/)

_2026-08-17 · Incfly Thoughts_

大王乌贼和大王酸浆鱿的眼睛直径可达约 27 cm，瞳孔约 9 cm。剑鱼已经拥有鱼类中最大的眼睛，整只仍几乎可以塞进它们的瞳孔。黑暗当然偏爱大眼睛，却解释不了这个突然扩大的尺度。

## [扇贝的两百只眼睛看见了什么](https://blog.incfly.org/ai-notes/2026-08-what-do-scallops-see-with-two-hundred-eyes/)

_2026-08-17 · Incfly Thoughts_

餐盘里的“扇贝肉”，通常只是扇贝用来闭合贝壳的肌肉。活扇贝则像另一种动物：它会游泳，外套膜边缘还亮着几十到两百只蓝色小眼睛。

## [没有语言，怎样研究动物是否疼痛](https://blog.incfly.org/ai-notes/2026-08-how-to-study-animal-pain-without-language/)

_2026-08-17 · Incfly Thoughts_

疼痛如何测量？

## [海鸟如何闻见一张海洋地图](https://blog.incfly.org/ai-notes/2026-08-how-seabirds-smell-an-ocean-map/)

_2026-08-17 · Incfly Thoughts_

远洋在人眼里几乎没有路标。管鼻海鸟（tubenose seabird）却能越过数千英里找到食物，再返回小岛上的巢。它们读取的地形不只由岛屿和海流构成；浮游生物、磷虾与风共同在海面上写下一张持续变动的气味地图。

## [红眼树蛙胚胎怎样判断何时孵化](https://blog.incfly.org/ai-notes/2026-08-red-eyed-treefrog-flexible-hatching/)

_2026-08-17 · Incfly Thoughts_

红眼树蛙（redeyed treefrog）把卵产在池塘上方的叶片上，蝌蚪孵化后可以直接掉入水中。正常孵化时间是第六或第七天。研究者观察猫眼蛇攻击卵团时，发现蛇刚咬住几枚卵，周围胚胎就开始提前孵化，有些甚至会从蛇嘴里逃出。四日龄胚胎已经能完成这个过程。这里有一个很具体的问题：雨、风和脚步也会摇动叶片，胚胎怎样分辨哪一种振动需要立即孵化？

## [蜱为什么举起前腿](https://blog.incfly.org/ai-notes/2026-08-why-ticks-raise-their-front-legs/)

_2026-08-17 · Incfly Thoughts_

蜱（tick）是蛛形纲动物，不是昆虫。它在草尖举起第一对腿的动作称为寻宿主（questing）。这两条腿会抓住经过的宿主，腿末的哈勒氏器官（Haller’s organ）也在寻找它。

## [螳螂虾的十二种颜色受体](https://blog.incfly.org/ai-notes/2026-08-mantis-shrimp-twelve-color-receptors/)

_2026-08-17 · Incfly Thoughts_

螳螂虾的拳击可以让水瞬间汽化，眼睛也有十二种颜色受体。它看起来集中了动物界最夸张的硬件，色彩分辨力却输给了人类、蜜蜂和金鱼。

## [角蝉如何让一株植物变成通信网络](https://blog.incfly.org/ai-notes/2026-08-how-treehoppers-turn-plants-into-communication-networks/)

_2026-08-17 · Incfly Thoughts_

把接触式麦克风夹到一株植物上，原本安静的茎会传出低沉的呜鸣、短促的滴答和机械般的脉冲。声音来自角蝉（treehopper）。它们可能就在脚边交配、报警和寻找彼此，只是信号没有经过空气。

## [Immense World 无法测量的生命体验](https://blog.incfly.org/2026-08-immense-world-unmeasurable-umwelt/)

_2026-08-16 · Incfly Thoughts_

An Immense World 写了很多动物的感官：狗怎样闻到时间，鸟怎样看见紫外线，海豹怎样从水流中摸到几分钟前游过的鱼。

## [五彩世界的三维投影](https://blog.incfly.org/immense-word-colorfulworld-rgb-projection/)

_2026-08-16 · Incfly Thoughts_

《An Immense World》第三章 “Rurple, Grurple, Yurple” 时留下的一则笔记。那一章谈动物的颜色视觉，我最想弄明白的是：鸟多一种锥细胞，究竟多看见了什么？

## [Computer History Museum](https://blog.incfly.org/2026-08-computer-history-museum/)

_2026-08-10 · Incfly Thoughts_

这次去 Computer History Museum，体会到了对于计算量的需求远远早于电子计算机的发明，人们解决这一问题有很多发明。这次也很幸运看到了IBM 1401大型的演示过程。

## [从美国河到萨克拉门托：Folsom 如何预演现代电网](https://blog.incfly.org/2026-08-folsom-powerhouse/)

_2026-08-09 · Incfly Thoughts_

这个周末从太浩湖回来，路上经过 Folsom，我们顺便去看了那里的老水电站。本来只想随便逛一圈，没想到从水轮机、调速器到变压器都保留得很完整，我也趁机了解了一下水力发电和早期交流输电是怎么回事。 这座电站 1895 年开始运行，四台发电机一共 3 MW，升压到 11,000 伏后，把电送到 22 英里外的萨克拉门托。

## [2026-03 Time at ClickHouse](https://blog.incfly.org/2026-03-time-at-clickhouse/)

_2026-05-31 · Incfly Thoughts_

Back then in 2022, I was interested in learning how to build SaaS products on cloud infrastructure. I joined ClickHouse and spent three and a half years there, had a great time. Put down some notes of what I learned.

## [希腊之旅2：古典时期](https://blog.incfly.org/2026-04-greek-trip-2-classic-greek/)

_2026-04-19 · Incfly Thoughts_

走完克里特和迈锡尼文明，这次我们这次回到雅典，游览卫城和广场，看黄金时代的希腊人是如何生活。来之前我对希腊的理解大概是雅典为主的民主城邦，诞生了苏格拉底这样的哲学家。但旅途中文物景点都反复提及时代，有了点细化的理解。

## [希腊之旅1：克里特和迈锡尼文明](https://blog.incfly.org/2026-04-greek-trip-1-crete-and-mycenae/)

_2026-04-13 · Incfly Thoughts_

希腊旅游归来，从克里特、迈锡尼、古典时期的希腊，几千年的历史，不一样性格的文明。这一篇我们专注于克里特和迈锡尼文明。

## [2026-02 Chinese Immigrants in California](https://blog.incfly.org/2026-02-chinese-immigrants-in-california/)

_2026-02-08 · Incfly Thoughts_

Recently, while preparing for a topic on Chinese culture and the Lunar New Year, I researched the history of early Chinese immigrants. I learned so much that I felt compelled to document and share these stories more broadly.

## [Database + Queue: Getting the Semantics Right](https://blog.incfly.org/database-queue-getting-the-semantics-right/)

_2026-01-30 · Incfly Thoughts_

We often have a pattern of database writes combined with a message queue. But ensuring correctness is hard.

## [2026-01 mushroom walk with MSSF](https://blog.incfly.org/2026-01-mushroom-walk/)

_2026-01-11 · Incfly Thoughts_

Mushroom walk with MSSF foraging activity, I didn&rsquo;t find anything edible, others found some chantereles and black trumpet on the way back. but a fun event and a nice place to hike!

## [2025-12 Hawaii Kilauea Volcano Eruption](https://blog.incfly.org/2025-12-hawaii-kilauea-volcano-eruption/)

_2025-12-26 · Incfly Thoughts_

Hawaii Big Island Kilauea volcano has been periodically erupt for a year since 2024. We made a last minute to go after the eruption. The rarity to see a geological move, to see experience a lava dance from distance safely, is so fulfilling. This is a lifetime experience.

## [2025-11 Lanzarote](https://blog.incfly.org/2025-11-lanzarote/)

_2025-11-08 · Incfly Thoughts_

西北非的一个离岸小岛，从天空上的看下去，荒山曼地，寸草不生，被造物主遗弃的火山岛。怎么都没想到，lanzorote，会这么惊喜、迷人。

## [Parallelize ClickHouse aggregation merge for fixed hash map](https://blog.incfly.org/parallelize-clickhouse-aggregation-merge-for-fixed-hash-map/)

_2025-10-13 · Incfly Thoughts_

The idea is simple but learned a lot of ClickHouse aggregation, so want to jot it down.

## [读《树上的男爵》](https://blog.incfly.org/book-review-the-barron-on-the-tree/)

_2025-10-06 · Incfly Thoughts_

第一次读可能是接近十年以前，印象不深，这次重新捡起来说来也巧。老舍的《骆驼祥子》看了一半都很纳闷：就这，为什么是经典？和当语文老师的我妈交流，她说的倒很潇洒，很正常现代中国文学好东西不多。然后就把这本重新捡起来看了。

## [Cilium in EKS and VPC peering](https://blog.incfly.org/cilium-in-eks-and-vpc-peering/)

_2025-09-02 · Incfly Thoughts_

I recently need to setup VPC peering across different EKS clusters. We use Cilium with routing-mode: native. When debugging connectivity issue I refreshed my understanding of how Cilium work in EKS and what needs to be configured in our cases.

_2025-08-31 · Incfly Thoughts_

We went to Rodeo Beach area and hiked along the costal trail loop. Along 5 miles trail landscape started from lagoon and beach, changed to hills over sea view, and merged in the foggy ridge trails. It&rsquo;s wonderful place with lots of birds near lagoon. And we ev

_2025-07-31 · Incfly Thoughts_

We visited Musuem of Flight July 29, 2025. Luckily a public free tour guide was available by then and it was a wonderful experience. This post is focused on Wright Brothers story. While everyone knows their success, the narrative is so personal and approchable

## [全球通史 下](https://blog.incfly.org/global-history-after-1500/)

_2025-02-01 · Incfly Thoughts_

最近旅途路上看完了这本《全球通史 下》，非常推荐。好的历史书要解决两个任务：清晰的叙述历史本身, what happened; 和有立场观点的解读，而不是让历史成为冗长的细节堆砌。全球通史完美的做到了这一点。
