Facebook CEO says sorry again

扎克伯格向美国会道歉

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg told the US Congress on Tuesday that he is "responsible for" not preventing the social media platform from being used for harm, including fake news, foreign interference in elections and hate speech.

10日，脸书首席执行官扎克伯格向美国国会表示，他未能防止该社交媒体平台被滥用，导致了虚假新闻、外国干涉选举以及仇恨言论等危害，对此负有责任。

"It was my mistake, and I'm sorry. I started Facebook, I run it, and I'm responsible for what happens here," Zuckerberg said during a congressional hearing. This was Zuckerberg's latest apology for the personal data leak and he vowed to plug the vulnerabilities while attempting to defend himself by listing the company's measures to protect user privacy in past years. 

扎克伯格在国会听证会上说："这是我的错，我很抱歉。作为脸书的创办者和经营者，我对它所发生的一切负责。"这是扎克伯格就用户个人数据泄漏发表的最新致歉，他还承诺填补漏洞，但同时列举了过去数年内公司为保护用户隐私而采取的系列措施来试图为自己辩解。

His apology came after Facebook was embroiled in a widening scandal that British data firm Cambridge Analytica had improperly gathered detailed Facebook information on 87 million users, up from a previous estimate of more than 50 million.

扎克伯格此番道歉的背景是脸书卷入了"剑桥分析"愈演愈烈的数据泄露丑闻，这家英国数据分析公司不当收集了8700万脸书用户的详细信息，比之前预估的5000多万还要多。

Forgetful? It's not stupid

偶尔健忘的人智商更高?

You can relax if remembering everything is not your strong suit. Recent research makes the case that being forgetful can be a strength - in fact, selective memory can even be a sign of stronger intelligence. Traditional research on memory has focused on the advantages of remembering everything. 

如果事事牢记不是你的强项，你可以放心了。最近研究表明，健忘可能是个优点。事实上，选择性记忆甚至可能表明智商更高。传统上有关记忆的研究一直专注于牢记不忘的优势。

But looking through years of recent memory data, researchers Paul Frankland and Blake Richards of the University of Toronto found that the neurobiology (神经生物学) of forgetting can be just as important to our decision-making as what our minds choose to remember. 

但是，通过最近几年统计的记忆数据，加拿大多伦多大学的研究人员保罗•弗兰克兰和布莱克•理查兹发现，就决策而言，与遗忘有关的神经生物学同大脑选择牢记不忘同等重要。

Making intelligent decisions does not mean you need to have all the information at hand, it just means you need to hold onto the most valuable information. And that means clearing up space in your memory palace for the most up-to-date information on clients and situations.

理性决策并不意味着你需要随时掌握所有信息，它仅仅意味着你需要抓住最有价值的信息。这意味着要在你的记忆宫殿中清理出空间给有关客户和情景的最新信息。
