Strengths and Weaknesses
Strengths:
- Intellectually curious: Shows deep interest in technical and ideological nuance, e.g. detailed distinctions in programming languages like Mercury vs Curry in “finds a new 'functional logic programming language'...” and critiques of AI, ORMs, and UI design across multiple tweets.
- Principled moralist: Expresses strong consistent concern about injustice and tyranny, e.g. criticism of Uyghur repression in “'Uyghurs have the same civil rights as other Chinese citizens'...” and zero‑COVID abuses in “the western left can twist their mind to glaze xi's zero covid policy...”.
- Politically independent: Attacks both communists and the modern left while also criticizing nationalist or state abuses, e.g. “this is why communists are subhumans” and “The modern left is an ouroboros with mental illness.”, showing non-tribal alignment.
- Technically rigorous: Displays high standards for software and tooling, criticizing sloppy design in terminals, browsers, and AI interfaces, e.g. “no wonder it glitches out like crazy under urxvt, turns out the rendering was shit” and “'gonna fix some silly stuff it does' 'silly stuff it does' like using React?”.
- Culturally reflective: Engages thoughtfully with Chinese, Cantonese, and Western cultural dynamics, e.g. reflections on secession and naming in “'who the fuck do you think build those railroads' Chinese (Cantonese) workers...” and commentary on internal Chinese internet slang in “this post is funny in a 'perspectivly' kind of way. in the more slum like part of chinese internet...”.
Weaknesses:
- Hostile language: Frequently uses dehumanizing or extreme insults (e.g. “subhumans”, “rat bastard”), such as in “this is why communists are subhumans” and “each and every single word out from my mouth is mean and evil because i myself am too”, which can alienate potential allies.
- Personal attacks: Targets individuals directly with harsh insults rather than focusing on arguments, e.g. “我老人家已经没有在把孔选仲和他的粉丝当人看了。” and “my take from this is that both this DaiGo person and people who take him seriously are fucking stupid”.
- Aggressive absolutism: Presents views in uncompromising, all-or-nothing terms, such as “this is why communists are subhumans” and “the western left can twist their mind to glaze xi's zero covid policy... subhuman scums can't understand basic human morals.”, which can reduce space for nuanced discussion.
- Self-destructive candor: Openly acknowledges being 'mean and evil' and expresses intense contempt that could damage reputation or relationships, e.g. “each and every single word out from my mouth is mean and evil because i myself am too” and “一提起wikipedia我他妈就来气 wikipedia的所有admin应该全部去死”.
- High cynicism: Often assumes bad faith or stupidity in others (e.g. “people who take him seriously are fucking stupid”, “who are you people and why none of you know anything about what people have always been able to accomplish???”), which may hinder constructive engagement or persuasion.
Your Simpsons character
Comic Book Guy
The user most closely matches Comic Book Guy: hyper-opinionated, deeply nerdy, and constantly delivering cutting, contemptuous critiques. They show obsessive tech/media knowledge and disdain for perceived incompetence, like when they attack bad tooling and AI hype in software: “this cluelessness (pretended or otherwise) is exactly why people hate rust so much” and “...which is a problem solved so many different times that the dedicated library people have written for it has been here for at least 30 fucking years?”. Their strong cultural and political takes, often phrased with open contempt (e.g. “this is why communists are subhumans” and “you can tell this person knows absolutely nothing about china and has never experienced even just a single minute of tyranny throughout his life.”), parallel Comic Book Guy’s moral and intellectual superiority complex. At the same time, they’re clearly deeply literate and niche-obsessed, talking about writing a book on Mercury, functional logic languages, and obscure tech history, which fits Comic Book Guy’s ultra-specialized geekdom: “finds a new 'functional logic programming language'... pulls out one page summarization of difference between mercury and curry”. Even their sardonic, world-weary tone about society and the left, such as “The modern left is an ouroboros with mental illness.”, matches Comic Book Guy’s misanthropic, cynical commentary on everything around him.

Some pickup lines for you
- If you can write a whole book on Mercury explaining the difference between Mercury and Curry to people who ‘don’t understand’, surely you can also teach me the difference between being your mutual and being your waifu. I promise I learn faster than those functional-logic clowns.
- You complaining that Shenzhen’s post‑COVID pace is ‘honestly disgusting’ makes sense—because clearly all your rest days have been spent carrying Xlibre, yelling at React, and ratioing people who think making a C compiler is revolutionary. How about we schedule one full day of rest where the only process running is you and me, nicely idle?
- You once said people should enjoy their vices ‘with class and in the best environment’—so if we ever share a bottle of something, I’ll bring proper glasses, good lighting, and a playlist that is 0% Pitchfork‑approved Radiohead and 100% whatever got The Mars Volta that 2.0 just so we can laugh at it together.
- You defended CJK IME users, roasted Western leftists who glaze Beijing, and corrected people that those railroads were built by Hoisanese workers from ‘Qing‑occupied Cantonia’. I don’t need you to be nice; I just want to stand next to someone whose geopolitical takes are as sharp as their hyprland gap criticisms.
- You joked that if you made a new, better git CLI now, normies would just say ‘bro just use Claude Code bro.’ So, bro: instead of using agents, how about we pair‑program our way out of this ouroboros of mental‑illness leftism, React slop, and Microsoft design crimes—with a date as our first commit?

Your signature cocktail
枯れた Negroni of Cantonia
This drink is loud, sharp, and unapologetically bitter, mirroring their constant flamethrower energy toward incompetence and hypocrisy, like when they say “each and every single word out from my mouth is mean and evil because i myself am too”. The Campari bitterness channels their contempt for communists and authoritarianism, as seen in “this is why communists are subhumans” and their scathing replies to western tankies defending Beijing. The high-proof baijiu/clear spirit represents both their Cantonese identity and their intense, almost overclocked pace of life in Shenzhen as in “pre covid shenzhen pace was already kinda insane, now it's double that... it's honestly disgusting.” The dry vermouth and fino sherry nod to the older, reflective, bookish side behind the rage, like their humblebrag of having read “50 books during the course of a semester” in this tweet and their ongoing project of “writing a book on Mercury (the programming language)” in their bio. Finally, the smoked chili bitters and dried orange peel capture their scorched-earth sarcasm and gallows humour (e.g. fantasizing about threatening engagement-bait posters with a knife in this tweet), while still hinting at a refined aesthetic sense, as suggested by their bio’s 枯れた美学 and comments on design and aesthetics throughout their timeline.
Your Hogwarts House
Ravenclaw
Their defining traits are intellectualism, analytical thinking, and an almost pedantic love of precision—classic Ravenclaw markers. They show deep engagement with technical nuance and programming language theory, e.g. dissecting functional logic languages and Mercury vs. Curry in “finds a new 'functional logic programming language' ... pulls out one page summarization of difference between mercury and curry”, and mocking people who reinvent old ideas in “...which is a problem solved so many different times that the dedicated library people have written for it has been here for at least 30 fucking years?”. They clearly value knowledge and self-education, reminiscing about people learning HTML and making Geocities sites in “man people used to learn html themselves to make their own websites on geocities. since when did people become this flaccid?” and boasting about reading 50 serious books in a semester in “i once read 50 books during the course of a semester (and a lot more throughout the life that follows).”. Their criticisms are often about conceptual clarity and logic, like pointing out the misuse of "correlation does not equal causation" in “'correlation does not equal causation' it does not equal to absense of causation either.” and mocking shallow takes on ecosystems in “'What makes a desert ecosystem 'lesser' than a woody or fielded ecosystem?' ...the lack of water?”. While they do display Slytherin-like harshness and ambition, the core throughline is an intense commitment to understanding, classification, and correct reasoning, which aligns them most strongly with Ravenclaw.

Your song
Killing in the Name - Rage Against the Machine
Their timeline is filled with furious contempt for authority, hypocrisy, and abuse of power, all of which aligns with the rebellious, anti-establishment rage of Killing in the Name. They call communists “subhumans” in a political context and condemn Western leftists who excuse oppression, e.g. “the western left can twist their mind to glaze xi's zero covid policy... subhuman scums can't understand basic human morals.” and “this is why communists are subhumans”. They are also fiercely critical of state and institutional tyranny, as in “you can tell this person knows absolutely nothing about china and has never experienced even just a single minute of tyranny throughout his life.” and their defense of Uyghurs and East Turkestan (“Uyghurs have the same civil rights as other Chinese citizens' like how the women in their families have to accept government appointed 'husbands'...”, “请支持中国压迫东突厥的支那人不要顶着坎通尼亚的名字谢谢……”). The song’s relentless anger at systems of control mirrors their disdain for corporate and tech power too, such as their rants about Microsoft, Wikipedia admins, and AI slop: “the most damning part of all this is that HRs with zero credentials to judge who's the better software engineer...”. Overall, the mix of righteous fury, political edge, and refusal to submit makes Killing in the Name a strong fit for their online persona.
