最讨人嫌科技产品使用习惯?
Technology permeates every aspect of our lives. Unfortunately, the majority of us—myself included—are completely oblivious as to when and where our tech use makes us look like total jerks. As a result, we can end up insulting our friends, family and coworkers. Or being just plain, well, jerks.
科技已经渗透到我们生活的方方面面。不幸的是,绝大多数人——包括我在内——完全不知道在某些时间和地点使用这些科技会让人觉得我们完全就是混蛋。结果是,我们可能会冒犯到家人朋友以及同事,或者简单说,可能表现得像个混蛋。
So to save us all from ourselves, I polled colleagues and friends to uncover the tech etiquette breaches that annoy them most and why. If you can avoid doing at least some of the things on this list, the world may very well become a more harmonious place.
为了拯救我们所有人,我在同事和朋友间搞了一次投票,来调查他们最讨厌那些使用科技产品的习惯以及为什么。如果你能至少避免做这个名单上的一部分事情,世界将会更加和谐。
Walking down the street while staring down at your phone
在街上一边低头看手机一边走路
If you live in a densely populated city like New York, you know how hard it can be to simply walk to the corner store without being bumped and jostled by 40 different people. But, hey, that's life in the big city. What drives people nuts, though, is when they’re walking down the street and the people in front of them decide to stop short because they need to check their latest Snapchat notifications.
如果你住在一个像纽约一样人口稠密的城市,你就知道,光是去一趟街角的商店都能遇到40多个不同的人。不过,这就是大城市的生活呀。但是,让人抓狂的是,街上的有些人会走着走着突然停下来,只为了看一眼手机上Snapchat的新通知。
