最近连续看了3篇关于做事拖延的原因分析(2篇Solidot的科技文章,1篇桑林的网志),终于明白了原来最容易被蒙蔽的一个理由就是听起来要做一个更完美的解决方案。
假如听到类似的拖延理由而又没有分辨和控制能力的话:往往这就是失败的开始
1 针对这个问题有一个更加完美的解决方案,需要3个月完成;
2 需要从头开发一个专用的系统,这个系统会比以前的更加灵活;
3 需要对所有的数据进行一次地毯式的统计,精度高达4个9;
4 今天的时间不多了,留到有空闲时间的时候再将整将本书看完;
解决的方法/策略:
1 事情没有容易和难之分,只有重要与不重要(重要性来自于数据分析);
2 让拖延者自己订下完成时间:不要允许时间,否则拖延本身就是给懒惰的奖励;
3 先定性,再定量;
好些天了,在公司登陆招商银行专业版,报错:
无效用户.
请重新输入#21 !
这个错误提示真是十分的悬疑。不知道 "#21" 提示给用户能有个鸟用,难道都指望用户是开发招行专业版的程序员么? 要说错误提示,这个工具的所有其它错误提示也都非常怪异,没有一个能让你看懂的。最糟糕的用户体验应该就是这样子的了。
当然,这个问题最后我知道答案了--也是偶尔从同事那里得知的:不要使用笔记本的外接键盘输入密码就可以了。 。看来最初的设计还考虑到了安全问题呢。
问同事怎么知道的,原来打了客服电话才知道,据说客服一听他的情况就直接问是不是用了外接键盘,客服都练成这样了,就是一个常见问题么,为什么 Web 上不加一个说明或者提示呢?

an audio-visual performance during which the heartbeats of 12 classical musicians & the artist duo Terminalbeach control a computer composition & visualization environment. the musical score is generated in real time by the heartbeats of the musicians. they read & play this score from a computer screen placed in front of them.
the musicians are equipped with ECG (electrocardiogram) sensors. a computer monitors & analyzes the state of these 12 hearts in real time. the acquired information is used to compose a musical score with the aid of computer software. it is a living score dependent on the state of the hearts.

a rice cooker that tracks Internet news about genetically modified rice. for each new report about GM rice, a quarter cup of rice is dispensed into the cooker. when the cooker has enough rice for a meal, water is added automatically, the cooker is switched on & an email is sent out to inviting people to eat the rice.
the project is designed to create awareness to issues surrounding genetically modified organisms by producing excessive amounts of cooked rice & attempting to feed people with it.
