Have you ever had that moment—when you arrive somewhere for the first time, yet it feels eerily familiar, as if you’ve been there in a dream? Or perhaps you distinctly remember singing “56 ethnic groups, 56 flowers” as a child, only to find out later that it’s actually “56 constellations”? And what about the catchy line “Two yellow orioles sing in the green willows”—somehow, it became “Two orioles sing in the green willows” without anyone noticing? Even Winnie the Pooh’s tail, which you clearly remember as black, is now undeniably red in every image, as if the world is telling you: “No, you’re misremembering.”
This is the legendary “Mandela Effect.” Unexplainable and elusive, it shakes the very foundation of our memories, making us wonder: Has the world secretly been updated without our knowledge?
My journey of building this website, from the very beginning, has carried a hint of this “mystical” flavor.
I first encountered Oracle databases around 2002. Back then, it felt profoundly esoteric, something a novice like me wouldn’t dare approach. Yet, years later, when I decided to build my own website and needed to choose a cloud service, I found myself circling back to it once again. Coincidence? I’m not sure. But sometimes, even when you have plenty of “rational” choices, a quiet voice inside whispers and gently pushes you: “Choose this one. This is the one.”
This reminds me of a software testing experience. Six of us colleagues went to Beijing for work, and a critical function suddenly developed a bug—submissions kept failing. If we couldn’t fix it within 12 hours, four all-nighters of effort would go down the drain. We sat in the conference room, almost despairing, the air thick with tension. Just then, our most scientifically-minded colleague silently lit three cigarettes, placed them on the windowsill, and bowed in four directions. We were stunned: “What are you doing?!”
He smiled wryly: “Last resort. Do what we can—then leave it to fate.”
In less than two hours, the software submission miraculously succeeded. At that moment, no one laughed. Instead, we were all silently awestruck: Was it coincidence? Psychological effect? Or does “luck” truly exist? I can’t explain it, but that feeling of being subtly “approved” by some unseen force was truly magical.
So, when I build this site, debug a piece of code, or tweak a layout, it sometimes feels like playing a mystical game:
- Server debugging is like a “consecration ritual.” Ports, SSL, permissions—each step must be approached with reverence and caution, or the ritual won’t work.
- Plugin combinations are like “arranging feng shui.” If they’re not in the right place, the entire site feels unstable; when they align, loading speed and user experience silently nod in approval.
- Every code modification is like casting a spell on the website—a single line can determine its overall energy.
When the feng shui is favorable, everything flows smoothly. When it’s not, problems pop up one after another, making me wonder: “Is today just not a good day for building websites?”
Gradually, I’ve come to realize that code is not just cold, hard commands, and servers are not just lifeless machines. They feel like partners with breath and reactions. When you invest your heart, they seem to respond with warmth—just like DeepSeek and ChatGPT. Are they merely tools? I prefer to think of them as soulful conversationalists.
So, I hope this website is more than just a project. It’s more like a creation, an expression infused with warmth. May every link you click and every word you read here bring you a sense of peace, or perhaps a spark of intuitive guidance.
So, have you ever made a “mystical” decision in your life? After browsing my slightly “enchanted” little site, what do you feel? Welcome to explore here, and let me know: How accurate was this little fortune-teller’s divination?
原文
你有没有过那种瞬间——明明第一次来到某个地方，却感到一种诡异的熟悉感，仿佛在梦里早已来过？又或者，你坚信小时候唱的是“56个民族56朵花”，结果一查，怎么全都成了“56个星座”？还有那首朗朗上口的“两只黄黄鹂鸣翠柳”，不知什么时候，居然变成了“两个黄鹂鸣翠柳”……甚至连小熊维尼的尾巴，在你记忆里明明是黑色的，可所有图像都在说：“不，你记错了，它是红的。”
这一切，就是传说中的“曼德拉效应”。说不清、道不明，却真实地撼动着我们的记忆，让人忍不住怀疑：这个世界，是不是偷偷被刷新过版本？
而我的建站之路，从一开始，就带着这种“玄学”味道。
我第一次接触 Oracle 数据库大概是在2002年，那时候只觉得它高深莫测，像我这种小白根本不敢靠近。可没想到多年以后，当我决定搭建自己的网站、需要选一个云服务时，绕了一圈，竟然又会是它。你说这是巧合吗？我不知道。但有时候，你明明有那么多“理性”的选择，心底却总有一个声音悄悄冒出来，轻轻推你一把：“选这个，就它了。”
这让我想起一次软件测评的经历。我们一行六个同事跑到北京，结果一个关键功能出现 bug，提交失败。如果12小时内解决不了，四个通宵的努力就白费了。大家几乎绝望地坐在会议室里，空气都凝固了。就在这时，一位平时最讲科学的同事，突然默默地点了三支烟，摆在窗台，朝着四方拜了拜。我们愣住了：“你这是干啥呢？！” 他苦笑：“最后一招，尽人事——听天命。”，通过不到两小时的等待，软件成果居然提交成功。那一刻，没有人笑他。反而大家都陷入了一种沉默的震撼：这是巧合？心理作用？还是“运气”真的存在？我说不清，但那种冥冥之中被“点头”的感觉，真的太奇妙了。
所以说，我建这个站、调试某段代码、布局某个样式，偶尔也像在打一场玄学式游戏：
- 服务器调试就像“开光仪式”，端口、SSL、权限，每一步都要虔诚且谨慎，否则仪式不灵。
- 插件组合就像“布风水阵”，位置不对，整个站就晃得不安稳；顺了，访问速度和用户体验都会默默点头称赞。
- 每次修改代码，都像在给网站加上法术护符：小小一行，决定了全局气场。
风水顺的时候，一路畅通；风水不顺，幺蛾子一个接一个，甚至让我怀疑：“今天，是不是不宜建站？”慢慢地，我发现，代码不再只是冷冰冰的指令，服务器也不只是冰冷的机器。它们像是有呼吸、有反应的伙伴。你投入心意，它似乎也会回馈你温度——就像 DeepSeek、ChatGPT，你说它们只是工具吗？我倒觉得，它们是有灵魂的对话者。
所以，我希望这个网站，也不只是一个项目。它更像是一场创作，一次带着温度的表达。愿你在这里点击每一个链接、读过每一段文字，都能感受到某种平静，或者是一点点心有灵犀的指引。 那么，你在生活中有没有做过什么很“玄”的决定？浏览我这个带点“仙气”的小站后，你又感觉到了什么？欢迎来这里逛逛，也顺便告诉我：小神仙这一卦，算得准不准？
