DPS 周刊 67 - 系统之美
系统学是一门非常美妙的学问。当我们从一个系统的角度来观察，我们不仅可以看到各个零部件本身，也可以看到他们的相互影响，以至于整个系统总体的运作。同样的，我们生活中也充满了各种系统。比如 Jack Raines 之前一直在旅行中，为了保证电子报的按期更新，他有一套自己的写作系统；为了读更多的书，Hannah Rose 建议我们自己的阅读系统，比如安排固定时间，随身携带一本书等等。当我们用热力系统的角度来观察我们的效率，那么我们就不太会再苛责自己了，毕竟一般引擎的效率只有35%，我们的生产力也不可能达到100%的效率。
系统学的入门读物里，Thinking in Systems 是一本非常易懂的书，非常推荐。
对了，我们最近还探讨了学习英文的重要性：
英语作为事实上的通用语言 (de facto lingua franca)，在这个世界上有极大的通行度：
- 几乎所有资讯都有英文版
- 几乎去所有地方都有人能说英语
- 学习英语能让你接触到第一手资讯，不再被二手资讯污染

Recap
Devon Zuegel 在学习热力学时，得知一般的引擎只能把35%的能量转换成动力，她后来发现人们的生产力也遵循类似的规律：
- 我们每天只有很小的一部分时间有真正的产出；
- 几乎所有人都是类似，而很多产出到最后又是无用功；
- 即使效率再高，人也不能长时间保持高产出，因为那样会导致 burnout；
- 你可以追求高效的生产力，但是无法达到时也不要太沮丧。
