對我們評價好
開場一句 think well of us（對我們評價好）講的是歸屬感：人天生在意部落裡的人怎麼看自己。

發言者拆解點贊焦慮：conflate
有人一開口就說，人天生在意別人怎麼看自己，卻沒進化到扛得住每五分鐘一次的社會認可——dosed to us（被按劑量餵給我們）。點贊一來，我們又把它和價值、真相混為一談：conflate（混為一談），最後被逼進 vicious cycle（惡性迴圈）。想聊刷手機為什麼越刷越空，這幾句正好用。
發生了什麼
有人從人類進化講起：我們在意部落裡的人怎麼想，think well of us（對我們評價好）就來自這種本能，可現在這份在意被放大成每五分鐘一次的社會認可。接著話鋒轉到點贊：愛心、點贊、豎大拇指只是短期訊號，我們卻把它們和價值、真相混為一談，conflate（混為一談），得到的是虛假、脆弱的人氣。於是人被逼進 vicious cycle（惡性迴圈），總想把那種認可找回來。後半段用抑鬱、焦慮和自殘住院資料，說明這種變化如何落在一整代青少年身上。
這場戲看什麼
- 留意反問句如何把尺度拉大
- 注意點讚詞與價值判斷的並列
- 數字上升如何支撐結論
留意這幾個短語

本章全部批註
36 句台詞裡標了 27 處
賓語從句：what 從句作 aware of 的賓語，問的是‘一萬人怎麼看我們’，不是‘意識到一萬人’。
But were we evolved to be aware of what 10,000 people think of us?社會認可
We were not evolved to have social approval being dosed to us every five minutes.被按劑量餵給我們
有人把點贊、紅心這類認可說成定時給藥：社會認可被 dosed to us（被按劑量餵給我們），每五分鐘就來一次，像喂藥。

資料段落裡，有人用 gigantic increase in（…的巨大增長）來說青少年抑鬱和焦慮，把漲幅說得很重。
There has been a gigantic increase in depression and anxiety for American teenagers一直相當穩定

在一串青少年抑鬱、焦慮和自殘資料之後，一句 points to（指向；表明）說，這些趨勢指向社交媒體。

They're much less comfortable taking risks.出去約會
The number who have ever gone out on a date or had any kind of romantic interaction is dropping rapidly.入院
And remember, for every one of these, for every hospital admission, there's a family that is traumatized and horrified.看懂「發言者拆解點贊焦慮」
發音重點
- dosed to us — to us 快說時常縮成輕輕一帶，重音留在 dosed 上
- were built to — were 和 to 都弱，built 才是重音，別平均用力
- up 62 percent — 重音落在 62 和 percent，up 輕輕帶過
- more anxious — 三個 more 輕帶，重音落在三個形容詞上
But were we evolved to be aware of what 10,000 people think of us?但我們進化到能察覺一萬個人怎麼看我們了嗎？ 用反問把部落尺度拉到萬人尺度，一句話點出認知錯位。
We were not evolved to have social approval being dosed to us every five minutes.我們進化成今天這樣，可不是為了每五分鐘被喂一口社會認可。 把點贊寫成定時給藥，dosed 一詞讓抽象成癮有了身體感。
hearts, likes, thumbs-up-- and we conflate that with value, and we conflate it with truth.紅心、點贊、豎大拇指——我們把它們和價值混為一談，又把它們和真相混為一談。 平行重複 conflate...with 把平臺反饋抬成價值與真相，節奏很狠。
Because then it forces you into this vicious cycle where you're like, "What's the next thing I need to do now? 'Cause I need it back."因為它會把你逼進一個惡性迴圈：你滿腦子都是‘接下來我該做什麼？我得把那種感覺找回來。’ 把演算法獎勵寫成毒癮式追問，直接引語讓迴圈有了聲音。
And remember, for every one of these, for every hospital admission, there's a family that is traumatized and horrified.記住，每一個這樣的案例、每一次入院，背後都有一個深受創傷、驚駭不已的家庭。 從統計數字切回家庭，for every... there's 把冷資料變成人。
關於這一章的問題
dosed to us 是什麼意思？
就是「被按劑量餵給我們」。這句說，社會認可每五分鐘被送一次，像按劑量喂藥一樣頻繁。
「混為一談」英語怎麼說？
用 conflate。這裡說，人把愛心、點贊、豎大拇指這些短期訊號，和價值、真相混為一談。
think well of us 是什麼意思？
意思是「對我們評價好」。前面說人會在意部落裡的人怎麼看自己，就是這句 think well of us。
vicious cycle 在這裡指什麼？
就是「惡性迴圈」。點贊帶來的認可很短暫，人反而更空虛，又追問下一步該做什麼，因為「我得把它找回來」，於是被逼進這個迴圈。
「相當穩定」英語怎麼說？
說 pretty stable。這裡的 pretty 是「相當、挺」，不是「漂亮」；少女自殘住院人數到 2010、2011 年前後都相當穩定，之後才一路上升。
