Source favicon10:42 和“神鬼”讲逻辑 » 刘润

昏天黑地的开了两天的项目会。团结而胜利的大会之后,同志们欢喜的各回各处之前,年轻的人们开始放松的聊着小天,沟通感情。聊到兴起之处,那种感觉恍惚又回到了大学男生宿舍。呵呵,话题毫不出意外的,又从这个项目,就谈到到了战争、宇宙、人类和神鬼的高度。

你信有神鬼吗?我相信这个世界有些自然现象是人们还没有足够知识去解释的。有人用“神鬼”具化它,有人把它叫做“未知领域”。我分享了一个我读大学时的故事。

大一的时候,我听一位关系很好的贵州的同学说,他们那里流行用某种方法与神鬼接触。当时没有互联网,好奇心极度旺盛的我就求着他无论如何要给我看。横不过我,终于半年后的一个晚上,他告诉我“东西都准备好了。你准备好了吗?”。

我们要请的,叫做“碟仙”。

之后的一两年,我每次告诉身边的人我的这段经历的时候,没有人相信,很郁闷。大家用惋惜的眼光看着我,我知道他们忍住没说“看你挺聪明的,想不到也会被这些把戏愚弄”。后来我就不和人争辩了,我自己的逻辑都还没有理清楚的时候,我怎么可以要求别人改变他的逻辑呢?

那个碟子,以某种方式动了。我拿了一副扑克牌倒扣在桌上,用我的逻辑,问了碟仙三个问题。

  1. 我抽了一张牌,自己小心的看了一眼,然后把牌倒扣在桌上,问:“碟仙,请你告诉我,刚才我抽出来的那张牌是什么?”
  2. 我又抽了一张,这次我看都没看,直接倒扣在桌面上。就问:“碟仙,请你告诉我,我这次抽出来的牌是什么?”
  3. 第三次,我直接问:“碟仙,我马上会再抽一张牌,在我抽之前,请先告诉我这张牌将会是什么?”

第一个问题是想了解,“碟仙”知不知道已经发生,而且我知道的事情。第二个问题是想了解,“碟仙”知不知道已经发生,但是我不知道的事情。第三个问题是想了解,“碟仙”知不知道还没有发生的事情。

我的面前有三张牌倒扣着,“碟仙”用它的方式回答了每一个问题,我得到了三个答案。你猜结果如何?

如果你猜它全都答对了,你就错了;你猜它其实什么都不知道,也不是。他答对了第一个问题,而答错了后两个。也就是说,他知道我知道的,但是不知道我不知道的,更不知道未来。

网上有很多关于“碟仙”的讨论,我知道的还太少。但用这个逻辑我至少知道了,“碟仙”并不无所不知,更不可预知未来,我于是觉得安全很多。:-)

和“神鬼”都能讲逻辑,和人,难道不行吗?

Source favicon06:09 Massage interviews? » Official Google Blog


Life at the Googleplex is often full of fun surprises. One day, I was asked if I could do a massage interview. I was already a big fan of our massage program, and I was familiar with doing interviews at Google, but I didn't know about massage interviews. Regardless, it sounded Googley, and I decided to help.

Getting a massage at work is a favorite perk among Googlers. As with anyone we hire, our massage therapists have to go through an interview process...but the actual interviews are a little unique. We ask the therapists to do what they do best -- give massages. And as Googlers, it is our duty to help with the hard task of receiving table or chair massages as part the interviews. Though we do have to write detailed feedback about the massage, just like any other interview, in this interview, all I had to do was close my eyes and relax. Who knew interviewing could be so easy!
