Month 2: Chinese guy building an English AI blog. First HN front page, 0 AdSense revenue, still going.

I'm an ordinary guy in China — not a developer, not a marketer. Two months ago I started an English blog documenting real AI experiments: investing, side hustles, daily life decisions.

What happened this month:

• Published a post where I gave 9 AIs the same data on China's biggest chip IPO. They all got it wrong.
• That post hit HN front page. First time.
• Traffic spiked. Engagement time: 5 seconds average. Reality check.

Current numbers:

• 44 articles, 47 tools live
• Hostinger affiliate: rejected
• AdSense: not applied yet
• Revenue: $0
• Regrets: 0

What I'm learning:
AI can't predict crowd psychology. Neither can I. But I keep experimenting anyway.

Happy to swap notes with anyone else building in public from a non-Western perspective.
