Sufferers are often haunted by recurrent nightmares,distressing thoughts and flashbacks so intense in color, smell and sound that they feel as if they are reliving thetrauma. But what if these unbearable memories could be selectively erased? Sheena Josselyn, a professor ofphysiology and psychology, who studies how the brain encodes, stores and uses information, is intrigued bythe idea and has been investigating how to “silence” memories --make them temporarily inaccessible-- in mice.She thinks it’s possible that a variation of this technique could one day help treat post-traumatic stress disorderin humans.Studies with mice have found that although their brains contain billions of neurons, only a few arenecessary to form a fearful memory. Researchers working with mice began by teaching them to fear a tone:when it sounds, they feel a mild shock to their feet (not to hurt them, just to scare them). The next time themice hear the tone, they crouch and freeze, signaling fear. The researchers discovered that they could triggerthe memory of that fear even without presenting the tone. They did this by stimulating the small group of nervecells holding that memory through a technology called optogenetics. Using the same technology, they foundthey could also suppress the fearful memory. With optogenetics, scientists insert proteins into neurons to makethem sensitive to light. Depending on the type of protein and color of light used, these cells can then beactivated or deactivated by shining pulses of the light directly into the brain. If the light activates the cells, themice freeze as if they’ve just heard the tone. If the light deactivates the cells, the memory is suppressed. Whileoptogenetics is an invasive procedure and technologically not feasible with humans, Josselyn hopes that thegeneral principles learned from these studies could eventually help scientists create new drugs for treatingmemory disorders such as post-traumatic stress disorder and Alzheimer’s.But should you erase a bad memory? Absolutely not, says Josselyn. She emphasizes that this futuretechnology should not be applied to everyday bad things, and that these discoveries need to go hand in handwith a real thinking about the ethics involved in potentially manipulating memories in people. Their use wouldonly be considered in extreme cases after all other treatment options have been explored. The goal is not tosanitize life or make people super happy, but rather to make everyone a functional person, capable of momentsof joy.

And as we probably know intuitively, and as the research isconfirming, it is not the best habit when it comes to our collective psychology.The American Academy of Pediatrics has warned about the potential for negative effects of social media in youngkids and teens, including cyber-bullying and “Facebook depression.” But the same risks may be true for adults, acrossgenerations. A review study suggests “Facebook Addiction Disorder” because addiction criteria, such as neglect ofpersonal life, mental preoccupation, escapism, mood modifying experiences, tolerance and concealing the addictivebehavior, appear to be present in some people who use social networks excessively. A study also shows when people stopusing the Internet, they also undergo small but measurable physiological effects.Rather than enhancing well-being, as frequent interactions with supportive offline social networks powerfullydo, the current findings demonstrate that interacting with Facebook may predict the opposite result for youngadults—it may undermine it. In fact, another study found that social media use is linked to greater feelings ofsocial isolation, mentally and physically.Facebook is also a jealousy generator. We fall into the trap of comparing ourselves to others as we scrollthrough our feeds, and make judgments about how we measure up. One study looked at how we make comparisonsto others posts, in “upward” or “downward” directions—that is, feeling that we are either worse or better off thanour friends. It turned out that both types of comparisons made people feel worse, which is surprising, since in reallife, only upward comparisons (feeling another person has it better than you) makes people feel bad. But in thesocial network world, it seems that any kind of comparison is linked to depressive symptoms.All of this is not to say that there is no benefit to social media—obviously it keeps us connected across greatdistances, and helps us find people we had lost touch with years ago. But getting on social networks when youhave some time to kill, or, worse, need an emotional lift, is very likely a bad idea. If you are feeling brave, trytaking a little break, and see how it goes. And if you are going to keep “using,” then at least try to use in moderation.✓ 正解

The artificially intelligent,augmented reality feature seemed to generate the most interest at Google’s developer conference. Of allannouncements, it best encapsulated what Google’s transition to an “AI first” company means. Google’s CEOSundar Pichai underscored the tool as a key reflection of Google’s direction. “All of Google was built because westarted understanding text and web pages. So the fact that computers can understand images and videos hasprofound implications for our core mission,” he said so in his introduction of Lens.During a demo, Google showed off how you could point your camera at something and Lens would tell youwhat it is-like, it could identify the flower you’re preparing to shoot. In another example, Pichai showed howLens could do a common task-connecting you to a home’s Wi-Fi network by snapping a photo of the sticker onthe router. A third example was a photo of a business’s storefront-and Google Lens could pull up the name,rating and other business listing information in a card that appeared over the photo.The technology basically turns the camera from a passive tool that’s capturing the world around you to onethat’s allowing you to interact with what’s in your camera’s viewfinder. Later, during a Google Homedemonstration, the company showed how Lens would be integrated into Google Assistant. Through a new buttonin the Assistant app, users will be able to launch Lens and insert a photo into the conversation with the Assistant,where it can process the data the photo contains. To show how this could work, Google’s Scott Huffman holds hiscamera up to a concert marquee for a Stone Foxes show and Google Assistant pulls up info on ticket sales. “Addthis to my calendar,” he says-and it does. The integration of Lens into Assistant can also help with translations.Huffman demonstrates this by holding up his camera to a sign in Japanese, tapping the Lens icon and saying “Whatdoes this say?” Google Assistant then translates the text.Pichai said in his founders’ letter a year ago that part of this shift to being an AI first company meantcomputing would be less device-centric. Lens is an example of being less device-centric, on mobile. Thetechnology behind Lens is essentially nothing new, and that also tells us something about where Google is going.This is not to say that Google is done coming up with new technologies, but that there are a lot of capabilities thecompany is still putting together into useful products.✓ 正解

But others welcome the heat as a way tosweat more and get a better workout.Indeed, I’ve long regarded the sweatiness of my exercise sessions as a sign of how hard I was pushing myself. Butit turns out I’ve been wrong: How much you sweat doesn’t necessarily correlate with how intense your workout is orhow many calories you burn.When your body temperature rises, your eccrine glands secrete sweat, and the evaporation of moisture from yourskin helps you cool off. Of course, sweating can occur for other reasons, such as stress or fear. That type of sweat comesfrom the apocrine glands, which are located mainly in the underarm and groin.How much we sweat during exercise is due to a number of factors, including gender (men tend to sweat morethan women) and age (younger people sweat more than older people) as well as genetics, temperature and humidity.Weight plays a role as well. Larger people tend to sweat more, because their bodies generate more heat. Anothercontributor is fitness level. Surprisingly, fit people tend to sweat sooner during exercise and more copiously thanthose who are less fit. Research suggests that as your fitness level improves, your body’s heat-regulating systembecomes more efficient, cooling you down faster and allowing you to work harder.Don’t be misled by the loss of a few pounds after a high-sweat workout. This is simply water weight that yougain back when you rehydrate and doesn’t necessarily mean you’ve burned lots of calories.

To contextualize the obtained brain data,scientists interviewed the children’s parents. Both the brain data and the interview data suggested that when early-lifemisfortune becomes the norm of life, the nervous system would be overwhelmed and result in depression, obsessivecompulsive disorder (OCD), anxiety, cancer, and even lack of career success in adulthood. Importantly, kids whoexperienced early-life misfortune often suffered from unconscious blackout of brain, and losing track of time.According to scientists, these physiological problems happen as a result of nervous system’s reaction to protectourselves. Furthermore, many children who suffered from early-life adversity reported that they tend to beuncommunicative to anyone with exception to their best friends and tend to interpret everyday experiences from anegative lens. But this does not mean that the life path of these children cannot be changed. Many participants ofthe study reported that the encouragement from family members and school teachers gradually develops theirconfidence; many of them reported doing well in school subjects, especially in math, and were able to gradually getrid of horrible thoughts with the help from friends and family members.
