What is the difference between efficacy and effectiveness? In day to day language, we exchange the two as they are relatively similar synonyms.

Self-Determination Theory in the State of Game Studies - Motivations for Video Game Play and Political Decision-Making: Evidence from Four Countries

This week I read over several papers on motivation design and encouraging participation among students. You see, games require motivated participants involved in an objective voluntarily. That’s a hell of a triumph! One of the articles that stands out hails from a multinational survey on decision-making and player motivation -> Game Studies – Motivations for Video Game Play And Political…

关于咖啡店的效率

在倒春寒的南方成都，书店里的温度让人驻足

同类标签的人总是有些相似的气味，这里埋头捧卷读书的每一位集成了许多能量

高度适宜的吧坐，坐下就拥有了一种check in的力量

这杯付费的☕️就像倒燃的蜡烛🕯️，时刻催促着你的timing

如果想要改变自己的一些专注力与效率，真的非常建议这种氛围🧏🏼‍♀️

A Witch in Santorini

“In the island of Santorini (the ancient Thera) I personally encountered a still more striking case of out-spoken polytheism. I chanced one day upon a very old woman squatting on the extreme edge of the cliff above the great flooded crater which, though too deep for anchorage, serves the main town of the island as harbour—a place more fascinating in its hideousness than any I have seen. Wondering at her dangerous position, I asked her what she was doing; and she replied simply enough that she was making rain. It was two years since any had fallen, and as she had the reputation of being a witch of unusual powers and had procured rain in previous droughts, she had been approached by several of the islanders who were anxious for their vineyards. Moreover she had been prepaid for her work—a fact which spoke most eloquently for the general belief in her; for the Greek is slow enough (as doubtless she knew) to pay for what he has got, and never prepays what he is not sure of getting. True, her profession had its risks, she said; for on one occasion, the only time that her spells had failed, some of her disappointed clients whose money she had not returned tried to burn her house over her one night while she slept. But business was business. Did I want some rain too? To ensure her good will and further conversation, I invested a trifle, and tried to catch the mumbled incantations which followed on my behalf Of these however beyond a frequent invocation of the Virgin (Παναγια μου) and a few words about water and rain I could catch nothing; but I must acknowledge that her charms were effectual, for before we parted the thunder was already rolling in the distance, and the rain which I had bought spoilt largely the rest of my stay in the island.”

Outbreak 2021: Comparing Covid-19 Vaccines Based on Efficacy Number

Outbreak 2021: Comparing Covid-19 Vaccines Based on Efficacy Number

The vaccine from Pfizer & BioNTech remains the vaccine with the highest efficacy to date and mostly ordered by Governments around the world for the first phase of vaccinations for their front liners. Infographic source: Statista It makes a lot of sense that vaccination for a major pandemic like COVID19 should not come from only one source. That is why most countries are looking at a cocktail of…
