About Ducorn
Ducorn is an independent Traditional Chinese publication about decision-making under conflicting evidence.
Who writes this
Ducorn is written under a pen-name by an independent analyst based in Taiwan. The author stays intentionally pseudonymous; the work is meant to be judged by the quality of the reading, the sourcing, and the public record of claims.
The recurring first-person voice on Ducorn is a guide: someone who reads the relevant English sources, lays out where they disagree, and gives readers enough context to make their own decision.
What we do
We read English books, papers and podcasts across investing, health, AI, and life decisions, then surface contradictions between sources in Traditional Chinese.
Ducorn is not a summary site. Each article starts with a real decision, then follows the tension between sources until a judgment can be made.
Method
- Topics
- A topic needs both a real decision and conflicting information. If all sources agree, the topic usually does not need Ducorn.
- Sources
- Primary sources come first: books, papers, filings, podcasts, industry reports, and expert interviews. Anonymous SEO summaries are not used as the core evidence.
- Contradictions
- Disagreements are checked through scale, timing, incentive position, and the audience each source is actually talking about.
- Updates
- Claims that can expire are tied to verification conditions and tracked on /tracking.
- Corrections
- Factual errors are corrected; changed judgments are kept visible as part of the record.
If your work is cited here
If your book, paper, interview, or public work is cited on Ducorn, you are welcome to reach out. Corrections, context, and disagreement are all useful.
The goal is to present your work accurately, even when we disagree. If a source changes how an article explains a point, that change should be visible to readers.
