0604硅谷夜未眠：为什么科技达人痴迷睡眠技术顺理成章｜经济学人(10)

例：Williams is obsessive about motor racing.威廉斯痴迷于赛车。
It is hardly surprising that techies are not getting enough sleep, given the industry’s culture of long hours, and the widespread notion that for a true entrepreneur, everything else in life is secondary to succeeding at work. The enthusiasm for sleep-tech also ts a larger pattern of using technology to x problems that the industry itself has created.
Is your smartphone too addictive? Here’s an app to help you monitor and track your usage. Are the streets of your city clogged with Ubers? Try an electric scooter instead. Seen this way, the embrace of sleep-tracking is an indictment of the whole culture: it tackles the symptoms of sleep deprivation, but not the disease.
科技行业向来工作时间长，而且人们普遍认为，对于真正的创业者，生活中其他任何事情都比不上事业有成重要。所以科技达人睡眠不足也就不足为奇了。睡眠科技热也符合一个更大的模式，即利用科技来解决科技行业本身造成的问题。智能手机是不是让你过于沉迷其中?有一个应用可以帮你监控和追踪手机的使用情况。城市的大街小巷挤满了优步的网约车?那就试试电动滑板车吧。从这个角度看，对睡眠追踪的追捧折射出整个行业文化的一个弊端——它在解决睡眠被剥夺的问题时治标不治本。
