I'm sadly to share that Jonas Neubauer, the 7 times Classic Tetris World Champion has passed away on Jan 4.
Not just a master of the game, Jonas was an amazing figure in the Tetris community and has inspired many people, myself included. Without him, this speech wouldn't be possible as he was the reason I started playing Tetris in the first place.
I would like to dedicate this Tedx talk to Jonas. May you rest in peace, my hero.

The saying good recognizes good and bad recognizes bad seems kinda more true now.
Especially at 6:20, I got reminded of a chapter in one of Mark Manson books, in which he was talking about the blue dot effect. It's kinda similar to this negative pattern you talked about.
Thanks for reminding and help me also learn new things. I really enjoyed!

The takeaway is really easy to understand and apply in real life! Thank you so much!
