My annual letter: danwang.co/2023-letter/ This year I discuss a walk-and-talk; Crumb; running and tangping; Knausgaard; Elon as Palmer Eldritch; quantity has a quality all its own; Chicago as a megacity; memelords; Norton; food as physical pleasure; hunching; and a pause.
New episode! In her third appearance on the show, Chinese food expert @fuchsiadunlop joins @tylercowen and a group of special guests to celebrate the release of her new book exploring the history, philosophy, and techniques of Chinese culinary culture: conversationswithtyler.com/episodes/fuchs…
New pod: I talked to @danwwang about why this seems like the end of the Chinese economic miracle—probably the most impressive economic story in human history, from a sheer anti-poverty standpoint—and how China thinks about technology and progress now open.spotify.com/episode/1sKgd0…
Surprised and not surprised that Knausgaard’s novel The Morning Star concludes with a 54 page essay entitled “On Death and the Dead”
frederick douglass’s “composite nation” is a parade of bangers but in a speech advocating for mass chinese immigration and saying america needs the gifts of all nations, he takes a second to say “except the french”
China’s growth is faltering, but its technological momentum is still going strong. In case of conflict, is it better to have a large and adaptive manufacturing base (China) or AI, biotech, and the Metaverse (US)? I chatted about that with @greg_ip: wsj.com/economy/why-xi…
Unnerving to find that I’m allowed to accuse the UK of being over-specialized in “sounding-clever industries” in the pages of the FT Whatever next, the BBC?
For anyone at Yale next Monday, I’ll be giving a short talk at the law school on China and tech: law.yale.edu/yls-today/yale…

I think we need a name for this sort of American dysfunction. In other countries, this class of inefficiency would be properly understood as a “bribe” (not applicable here because it was the decision of the National Park Service)

Here is a link to the (open access) paper: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11… P.S. May be useful for your book @danwwang
Interesting from @danwwang - many young Chinese going to places like Chiang Mai. This was always the interesting thing about nomad hubs. Wayyy more diverse than American cliches. And this trend will only grow.
One of the ways Twitter fails me now is not notifying me of @danwwang latest annual letter. I found out the old way; we met up in person, and he told me he published it. While I'm sad not to see him more often, reading this feels like a chat over a meal. danwang.co/2023-letter/
In the push for sheer volume of writing online, we've lost much distinctive prose style. @danwwang is one of the few that still has a voice I recognize. We need a style guy on the internet, but one focused on the rhetorical rather than the sartorial.
“Every new year Dan Wang … a gifted observer of contemporary China, writes a long, reflective letter about the year just past, mixing analysis with personal experience”. @danwwang opens this op-ed in @nytopinion nytimes.com/2024/02/03/opi…
Insightful, mind-expanding and beautifully written commentary from @danwwang , as always. If you haven’t read Dan’s thoughts on China, food, music, books and life before, this is a great place to start. @AevitasUK
My annual letter: danwang.co/2023-letter/ This year I discuss a walk-and-talk; Crumb; running and tangping; Knausgaard; Elon as Palmer Eldritch; quantity has a quality all its own; Chicago as a megacity; memelords; Norton; food as physical pleasure; hunching; and a pause.
Every year I look forward to @danwwang’s annual letter. Always a highlight. danwang.co/2023-letter/
@danwwang I wouldn’t have found this without you on X - dont leave! Have ordered my 1st Crumb book following your letter as well 🤓
Wang Yi never struck me as a “free spirit” but even he’s in Thailand? 🐘@danwwang
@danwwang Your 2022 and mid-year letters feel like yesterday, and I thought there would be no letters in 2023. 2023 is a classic; there is no way to miss it
"The trouble with Xi is that he is 60 percent correct on all the problems he sees, while his government’s brute force solutions reliably worsen things... It’s starting to feel like the only thing scarier than China’s problems are Beijing’s solutions." danwang.co/2023-letter/
@danwwang's 2023 annual letter has an interesting section on the Chinese crypto community in Thailand. He sees them as part of the young generation who feel alienated from Chinese society and try to find a different paths for the future danwang.co/2023-letter/
@danwwang I liked it because it was so informative and well written, and I loved it because it was funny. You have a gift for lines - stand up comedy material one day perhaps?
"On this topic, I’m sad that many people I meet have never been to Asia. I tell them: please try at least to visit Japan or Singapore." Echo this! @danwwang
Dan "fractal" Wang. What a pleasure it is to read you, sir
My annual letter: danwang.co/2023-letter/ This year I discuss a walk-and-talk; Crumb; running and tangping; Knausgaard; Elon as Palmer Eldritch; quantity has a quality all its own; Chicago as a megacity; memelords; Norton; food as physical pleasure; hunching; and a pause.
An annual treat... thanks @danwwang

I always look forward to @danwwang's annual letter. Both personal and cerebral, it is packed with readable insights of China and life. This year he profiles the Chinese expat community looking for freedom and purpose in northern Thailand. Recommended danwang.co
