# Proofs. Paths. Protocols. Hi, this is [Walden](https://walden-lin.github.io/home/). Since summer 2025, I’ve been documenting my notes here—guided by the principle of **MAKE: Minimal Actionable Knowledge and Experience(最少必要知识)** and **the First Principle Thinking(第一性原理)**. Inspired by [*Attention Is All You Need*](https://proceedings.neurips.cc/paper_files/paper/2017/file/3f5ee243547dee91fbd053c1c4a845aa-Paper.pdf), this site runs on an AI-assisted workflow where **questions are the queries, knowledge the keys, and reflections the values**. Hopefully, I remain in control of the most human role: deciding which questions to ask. Currently, I only have time to collect things that I am exploring. **Why Blogging now?** Making a personal operating system public transforms private thought into an open protocol—inviting connection, challenge, and collaboration. What begins as individual reflection compounds into shared evolution and lasting influence. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
