核心畫面

Picture one button that is meant for the worst moment. You do not explain, you do not choose between options, you do not wait — you press, and something big happens at once. Its whole design is to skip thinking, because in a real emergency thinking takes time you may not have. Hold that: one press, no thought, everything moves.

可以想成一顆專門為最糟的那一刻準備的按鈕。你不用解釋。你不用在幾個選項之間挑。你也不用等。按下去,馬上就有很大的動作更多收起可以想成一顆專門為最糟的那一刻準備的按鈕。你不用解釋。你不用在幾個選項之間挑。你也不用等。按下去,馬上就有很大的動作發生。它的設計本來就是要跳過思考,因為真正的緊急狀況裡,思考需要的時間你可能沒有。記住這個畫面:一按、不想、全部啟動。
