见路不走See the Road, Don't Take It

马斯克的第一性原理，中国人2013年就讲完了Musk's First Principles was written in Chinese in 2013. Nobody noticed.

硅谷把“First Principles Thinking”供成了神。但一个叫叶子农的中国人，在2013年的小说里用四个字讲完了同一件事：见路不走。这不是谁抄谁，是两个文明独立挖到了同一块认识论基岩。Silicon Valley treats First Principles Thinking as Elon Musk's invention. A Chinese novelist wrote the same epistemological framework in 2013. Two civilizations. Same bedrock. Zero overlap in readership.
