We are not controlled by some pre-installed personality system or written program to react mechanically without thinking.

Those tools that can test us, whether it is astrology or MBTI, can help us understand, but they cannot define us. People are flexible.

Psychology can help us understand ourselves and others more clearly, harmony and contradiction, confusion and agreement, etc.

We will have more understanding and peace of mind.

The reason why games are addictive is that in the process, people can get particularly clear and direct feedback through simple rules. Electronic games have strengthened this point, and also set difficulty levels, which makes people unable to stop and easy to get addicted. However, most people who can get addicted to games have good concentration and are willing to accept new things and new challenges. If they can shift their attention to something they can control, they are likely to get good grades. But stand-alone games lack collaboration and the connection with other people's values. The better you play the game, the easier it is to be lonely. It is also boring to be separated from the feedback of social groups. This is determined by our social nature.

Online games are particularly magical. They can put people into a specific virtual time and space, and arrange various roles and scene simulations. They are all abstract and simplified (and one-sided) models of the real world. In online games, the basic settings are a cultural base, which stipulates the basic social operating rules, and various roles and functions are individual elements and participating subjects. In online games, players are individuals who project their real selves onto characters in virtual space and time, and interpret their individual thinking patterns and cooperation patterns on specific characters. If the basic cultural background of the game guides the characters to develop in an upward or good direction, players may be more inclined to develop in a more harmonious and friendly mode in the game; if the cultural background setting itself guides players to release their inner demons, that kind of recklessness may be like a beast in a cage, released and uncontrollable.

The book consists of eight chapters. The first seven chapters are: Life Hackers, Time Hackers, Motivation Hackers, Material Hackers, Health Hackers, Relationship Hackers, and Meaning Hackers.

The author examines the group of life hackers from perspectives such as life processes, time management, behavioral motivation, material management, physical health, interpersonal relationships, and obtaining meaning.

In this episode, we will analyze from the underlying logic of life hackers. In fact, the two issues that all life hackers strive to address are self-control and task management, which will be emphatically interpreted for you in the first two parts. In the third part, we will restore a part of the book that the author considers very important but is often overlooked by readers. That is, as a communication scholar, Regal's rational reflection and criticism of "life hackers".

The author of the book, Joseph M. Reagle, Jr., is an associate professor of communication at Northeastern University in the United States. He is the author of "Good Faith Collaboration: The Culture of Wikipedia" and "Reading the Comments: Likers, Haters, and Manipulators at the Bottom of the Web".

In France, philosophy is a compulsory course in middle schools. Those who wish to enter universities in the fields of liberal arts and social sciences must take the notoriously difficult philosophy entrance examination.

The book "Tomber Amoureux" is a "teaching aid" for French high school students. Its author, Sabrina Cherguira, a philosophy doctor and a popular philosophy teacher among students, uses the theme of love that interests young people the most. The book covers topics from love at first sight to breakups, sex and love, possessiveness and jealousy, loyalty and marriage.

Through the author's philosophical thinking, it helps us face love more actively and rationally. This episode of our podcast re-organizes the ideas of the book and focuses on four important questions: How can we resolve the inevitable pain in love? How can we get out of the pain of a breakup? How can we make the right choices in love? And how can we maintain a long-lasting relationship?

During the interpretation, some overly abstruse philosophical terms and arguments in the book are translated into easy-to-understand language. We avoid deep academic discussions and focus on practical methods. After listening, you will be inspired, gain methods, and develop a different interest in philosophy.
