「每日英文閱讀分享#034-你因科技而快樂嗎?」
▷文章:Robots Save Us Time — But Do They Make Us Happier?
▷總結:機器人幫我們做討人厭的雜事,大多數人都變得更快樂。但是有些人會因為機器人太人性化而覺得愧疚,或者是因為使用自動化產品被貼上「懶惰」的標籤。
▷討論:科技給我們帶來更多的快樂嗎?
文章中探討的雜事機器人,快樂與焦慮比較顯而易見,但是對於整體的科技呢?
對我來說,
=>資訊快速的取得,讓我們對任何事情都失去了耐心。
一有疑惑,立刻就要取得答案,是不是某一個層面也體現了,一有爭吵,就要告訴自己『是他不適合我,如果真正適合的人是不用付出心力磨合的』。速食愛情,是不是就是這樣出現的呢?
我們不再有耐心等待,沒辦法慢慢的觀察彼此,又或是花時間等待對方的改變或成長。
=>無時無刻都可以取得的網路,讓我們沒辦法停下來,我們缺少很多跟自己對話的時間,如果探索不到自己內心真正想要的,那又怎麼能夠找到人生的方向呢?
但我確實很喜歡科技帶來的便利,但是要怎麼不被這些便利牽著鼻子走,就是很重要的功課了。

電腦文件中常出現implement和implementation這兩個字,
(記得C語言中,有一專有名詞叫implement,但已忘了代表什麼?)
一直沒有搞清楚。
The process file system, or procfs, implements a view of the system
process table inside the file system. It is normally mounted on /proc,
and is required for the complete operation of programs such as ps(1) and
w(1).
The procfs provides a two-level view of process space, unlike the previ-
ous FreeBSD 1.1 procfs implementation.
上文中來自proc的manual page,
前一個implement或許可以解釋成"使某一個事物成為可能",因為要翻成"實施"有點
不太通順。
後一個implementation則可以解釋成"已完成的某一成品,產物"
有錯請指正。
