這個標誌是危險的宣傳,它提升了瀑布暗流的神話。 如圖所示,在此瀑布中,任何其他瀑布中,甚至在海灘上都不會出現暗流。 除少數極端情況外,唯一會在大壩和水力發電廠的排水管附近找到類似水流的地方。 由於在池底沒有出口流出,因此自然界中不容易發生這種現象。 在瀑布底部或附近漂浮的困難是由於與水中混合的空氣有關的浮力的變化,而不是向下的水流。
實際上,該瀑布的流入和流出都在水池的表面。 這意味著最強的水流在水面上,最弱的水流在底部。 在一年中的大部分時間裡,幾乎沒有地下暗流。 如果您沒有在頂部看到它們,它們就不會隱藏在底部。
當河流中有大量的水流過時,瀑布的力量會在水池表面形成一個小的凹陷,導致水向該方向流動。 多數反彈並產生從池中流出的水流。 有些也從瀑布流回到瀑布下的凹陷處。 這些僅表面水流。 由於水只能從較高的高度(例如,地面)向下流動,因此它們不會在池中深處延伸。
因此,要逃開這些水流的正確方法是在它們下面游泳。 表面水流將您反覆拉出來,而不是暗流。 因此,要逃脫,您需要向水底下游泳。 這是應該在標誌上顯示的消息。 逃脫離岸流方法相同,在這裡也適用。卡住在垂直的水流中游泳,不要跟它對抗。但要在瀑布前游泳,是有悖常理的。中心的水流將帶您離開瀑布跟水池。這些訊息應該要標示在告牌上。就像在海灘告示牌上一樣,有標示如何逃開離岸流,所以這裡也應該有標示如何逃開瀑布中的水流。 但相反地,這個標誌沒有提供任何有用的訊息,實際上還具有誤導性。 這是進行水安全教育的尷尬方式。
附註1:這僅適用於一個水池範圍。 在河流中,整個橫截面都在流動,由於摩擦因素使其底部水流動仍然較慢。 而表面的水流動得更快。
附註2:颱風過後,當河流太大而超過水池的承載能力時,以上這些規則將失效。 這並不重要,因為對於任何理智的人來說,顯然無論如何在颱風過後是不要進入溪河裡。
This sign is dangerous propaganda which promotes the myth of the waterfall undercurrent. Currents as depicted in this picture do not occur in this waterfall, any other waterfall, or even at the beach for that matter. With a few extreme exceptions, the only place you will find currents like that are near drainage pipes for dams and hydroelectric power plants. It's not a phenomenon that can occur easily in nature because there is no outflow at the bottom of the pool. Difficulties with staying afloat at or around the base of the waterfall is due to changes in buoyancy related to air mixed in the water... not downward currents.
In fact, the inflow and drainage for this waterfall are both on the surface of the pool. This means that the strongest currents on the surface of the water, and the weakest currents are on the bottom. For most of the year there are barely any subsurface currents at all. If you don't see them on top... they aren't hiding on the bottom.
When there is a lot of water flowing in the river, the force of the waterfall creates a small depression in the surface of the pool, causing water to flow in that direction. The majority bounces out and creates a current flowing out of the pool. While some also flows back to the depression under the waterfall, typically from the side. These surface-only currents. They do not extend deep in the pool as water can only flow downward from a higher elevation (eg, the surface).
Therefore, the proper way to escape these currents is to swim under them. Surface currents are pulling you out, not undercurrents. So to escape you need to swim down. The same method for escaping a ripcurrent will also work here. Swim perpendicular to the current you are stuck in, not against it. It's counterintuitive, but swim in front of the waterfall. The current in the center will take you away from the waterfall and out of the pool. This is the message that should be on the sign. Just like at the beach there are signs explaining how to escape a rip current, there can be signs explaining how to escape a back current in a waterfall. Instead this sign provides no useful information, and is in fact misleading. It’s an embarrassing way to conduct water safety.
Note: This only applies to pools. In a river the entire cross sectional area is flowing, although it's still slower at the bottom due to friction. Surface water moves faster.
Note 2: After a typhoon when the river is so large as to exceed the carrying capacity of the pool, these rules breakdown. It's not important because to any sane person, it's obvious not to go into the river after a typhoon anyway.

【 一封 Co-founder & CEO Brian Chesky 的來信 (中英對照)】
早上晨讀時看到 Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky 宣布裁員 25% 的公開信。讀完覺得富有同理心並思考周到,很值得每位 CEO 參考。
其中一些對於離職員工的就業支持都很值得我們借鏡。雖然 Airbnb 有的資源比很多公司還多。但說不定有什麼是創業家們能參考的,為離職的夥伴多做一些。
為了讓更多人可以看到跟夥伴合作翻譯了一下,不通順的地方請見諒、歡迎在 google doc 提交修改建議。

今天稍早,Airbnb 聯合創辦人兼執行長 Brian Chesky 向 Airbnb 員工發送了以下訊息。
Earlier today, Airbnb Co-Founder and CEO Brian Chesky sent the following note to Airbnb employees.
這是我第七次在我家裡與各位發表談話。過去每次我們談話時,有好消息也有壞消息,然而今天我不得不分享一些非常令人難過的消息。
This is my seventh time talking to you from my house. Each time we’ve talked, I’ve shared good news and bad news, but today I have to share some very sad news.
當你們問我關於裁員的問題時,我曾說過沒有什麼不可能發生的事。今天,我必須坦承,我們正在縮減 Airbnb 的員工規模。對於像我們這樣一家以歸屬感為使命的公司來說,這是非常難以面對的,對於那些不得不離開 Airbnb 的人來說更是難上加難。我將盡可能詳細地分享我是如何做出這個決定的、我們正在為那些離開的人做什麼、以及接下來會有哪些事發生。
When you’ve asked me about layoffs, I’ve said that nothing is off the table. Today, I must confirm that we are reducing the size of the Airbnb workforce. For a company like us whose mission is centered around belonging, this is incredibly difficult to confront, and it will be even harder for those who have to leave Airbnb. I am going to share as many details as I can on how I arrived at this decision, what we are doing for those leaving, and what will happen next.
先從我們是如何作出這項決定的開始。我們正在共同經歷我們一生中最痛苦的危機,隨著危機的開始,全球旅行業都陷入停滯。Airbnb 的業務受到了重大的打擊,今年的收入預計不到 2019 年的一半。為了應對這場危機,我們籌措了 20 億美元的資金、大幅削減了成本,幾乎觸及了 Airbnb 的每一個角落。
Let me start with how we arrived at this decision. We are collectively living through the most harrowing crisis of our lifetime, and as it began to unfold, global travel came to a standstill. Airbnb’s business has been hit hard, with revenue this year forecasted to be less than half of what we earned in 2019. In response, we raised $2 billion in capital and dramatically cut costs that touched nearly every corner of Airbnb.
採取這些行動是必要的,但很顯然,當我們面對兩個嚴峻的事實時,我們必須更進一步:
1. 我們不知道旅遊什麼時候會復甦。
2. 當旅遊業復甦時,將有截然不同的樣貌。
While these actions were necessary, it became clear that we would have to go further when we faced two hard truths:
1. We don’t know exactly when travel will return.
2. When travel does return, it will look different.
雖然我們知道 Airbnb 的業務終將恢復,但它所承受的變化不會是臨時或是短暫的。於是,我們需要對 Airbnb 做出更多根本性的改變,縮減人力規模以專注在更核心的商業策略。每天都有人們共享自己的房子、並提供各式各樣的體驗。
While we know Airbnb’s business will fully recover, the changes it will undergo are not temporary or short-lived. Because of this, we need to make more fundamental changes to Airbnb by reducing the size of our workforce around a more focused business strategy.
在我們 7500 名 Airbnb 員工中,近 1900 名成員將不得不離開 Airbnb,佔我們公司的 25% 左右。由於我們不能像過去那樣顧及每項業務,透過人力的裁減,我們將會更聚焦於特定的業務上。
Out of our 7,500 Airbnb employees, nearly 1,900 teammates will have to leave Airbnb, comprising around 25% of our company. Since we cannot afford to do everything that we used to, these cuts had to be mapped to a more focused business.
▍更聚焦的業務
未來在這世界旅行將截然不同,我們需要相對應地讓 Airbnb 進化改變。人們會希望有更像家、更安全、更經濟實惠的選擇。人們也會渴望某種感覺被奪走的東西——人與人之間的連結。當我們創立 Airbnb 時,它是建立於歸屬感和連結之上。這場危機使我們更加專注於根本、最基礎的事物、讓我們回到 Airbnb 真正的特別之處——每天都有人們共享自己的房子、並提供各式各樣的體驗。
這意味著,我們將需要減少對不直接支持我們的房東社區核心活動的投資。我們暫停了在運輸部門和 Airbnb Studio 方面的努力,我們不得不縮減在飯店和 Lux 的投資。
這些決定和這些團隊成員的表現無關,也不意味著這些團隊的每個人都會離開我們。除此之外,所有 Airbnb 的團隊都將受到影響。許多團隊的規模將根據他們與 Airbnb 的發展方向的對應程度進行縮減。
▍A more focused business
Travel in this new world will look different, and we need to evolve Airbnb accordingly. People will want options that are closer to home, safer, and more affordable. But people will also yearn for something that feels like it’s been taken away from them — human connection. When we started Airbnb, it was about belonging and connection. This crisis has sharpened our focus to get back to our roots, back to the basics, back to what is truly special about Airbnb — everyday people who host their homes and offer experiences.
This means that we will need to reduce our investment in activities that do not directly support the core of our host community. We are pausing our efforts in Transportation and Airbnb Studios, and we have to scale back our investments in Hotels and Lux.
These decisions are not a reflection of the work from people on these teams, and it does not mean everyone on these teams will be leaving us. Additionally, teams across all of Airbnb will be impacted. Many teams will be reduced in size based on how well they map to where Airbnb is headed.
▍我們如何進行縮編
重要的是,我們要有一套明確的原則,以我們的核心價值觀為指導,指導我們如何減少我們的勞動力。這些是我們的指導原則:
• 將所有縮減過的業務範疇和我們將需要的人手一一對應。
• 為那些受到影響的人盡可能提供協助。
• 在過程中持續地保持團隊多樣性。
• 為那些受影響的人提供一對一的溝通。
• 等到所有細節都確定後再進行決策溝通 —— 僅部分訊息的透明會讓事情變得更糟。
我已經盡了最大的努力來堅持這些原則。
▍How we approached reductions
It was important that we had a clear set of principles, guided by our core values, for how we would approach reductions in our workforce. These were our guiding principles:
• Map all reductions to our future business strategy and the capabilities we will need.
• Do as much as we can for those who are impacted.
• Be unwavering in our commitment to diversity.
• Optimize for 1:1 communication for those impacted.
• Wait to communicate any decisions until all details are landed — transparency of only partial information can make matters worse.
I have done my best to stay true to these principles.
▍還原決策過程
決策過程開始於建構一個更聚焦業務戰略的成本結構。我們評估了每個團隊如何適應我們的新戰略,並確定了每個團隊未來的規模和形式。緊接著,我們對每個團隊成員進行了全面地檢視,並根據關鍵技能以及這些技能與我們未來業務需求的匹配程度做出了決策。
結果是,我們將不得不與我們所熱愛和珍視的隊友們分道揚鑣。有很優秀的夥伴離開了 Airbnb,其他公司有他們的加入著實幸運。
為了照顧那些即將離開的員工,我們一一檢視了遣散、股權、醫療保健和就業支持,並盡最大努力以同理並周詳的方式對待每個人。
▍Process for making reductions
Our process started with creating a more focused business strategy built on a sustainable cost model. We assessed how each team mapped to our new strategy, and we determined the size and shape of each team going forward. We then did a comprehensive review of every team member and made decisions based on critical skills, and how well those skills matched our future business needs.
The result is that we will have to part with teammates that we love and value. We have great people leaving Airbnb, and other companies will be lucky to have them. To take care of those that are leaving, we have looked across severance, equity, healthcare, and job support and done our best to treat everyone in a compassionate and thoughtful way.
▍資遣費
Airbnb 在美國的員工將獲得 14 周的基礎工資,每滿一年額外增加一周。任期將四捨五入到最近的一年。例如,如果有人在 Airbnb 工作了 3 年 7 個月,他們將獲得額外 4 周的工資,或 18 周的總工資。在美國以外,所有員工都將獲得至少 14 周的工資,外加與其所在國家的具體做法一致的任期加薪。
▍Severance
Employees in the US will receive 14 weeks of base pay, plus one additional week for every year at Airbnb. Tenure will be rounded to the nearest year. For example, if someone has been at Airbnb for 3 years and 7 months, they will get an additional 4 weeks of salary, or 18 weeks of total pay. Outside the US, all employees will receive at least 14 weeks of pay, plus tenure increases consistent with their country-specific practices.
▍股權
我們將為過去一年內聘用的所有員工移除需待滿第一年的股權到期限制,這樣所有離職的員工,無論他們在公司工作了多長時間,都可以是 Airbnb 的股東。此外,所有離開的人都有資格以 5月25日作為行權日。
▍Equity
We are dropping the one-year cliff on equity for everyone we’ve hired in the past year so that everyone departing, regardless of how long they have been here, is a shareholder. Additionally, everyone leaving is eligible for the May 25 vesting date.
▍健康保險
在一場持續時間未知的全球健康危機中,我們希望限制醫療成本總負擔。在美國,我們將通過COBRA 覆蓋 12 個月的健康保險。在所有其他國家,我們將支付到 2020 年底的醫療保險費用。這是因為我們如非是在法律上不能繼續承保,就是我們目前的計劃將不允許延長。我們額外將透過 KonTerra 提供四個月的心理健康支持。
▍Healthcare
In the midst of a global health crisis of unknown duration, we want to limit the burden of healthcare costs. In the US, we will cover 12 months of health insurance through COBRA. In all other countries, we will cover health insurance costs through the end of 2020. This is because we’re either legally unable to continue coverage, or our current plans will not allow for an extension. We will also provide four months of mental health support through KonTerra.
▍就業支持
我們的目標是幫助離開 Airbnb 的隊友找到新的工作機會。以下是我們可以提供幫助的五種方式:
• 校友人才目錄 —— 我們將推出一個面向公眾的網站,幫助即將離職的隊友找到新工作。即將離職的員工可以選擇將個人資料、簡歷和工作樣本提供給潛在的雇主。
• 校友安置團隊 —— 在 2020 年的剩餘時間裡,Airbnb 招聘的很大一部分將成為校友安置團隊。留在 Airbnb 的招聘人員將為離職員工提供支持,幫助他們找到下一份工作。
• RiseSmart —— 我們通過 RiseSmart 公司提供四個月的職業服務,該公司專門提供職業轉換和就業安置服務。
• 員工提供校友支持 —— 我們鼓勵所有留下的員工選擇加入一個計劃,以幫助離職的隊友找到他們的下一個職位。
• 筆記型電腦 —— 電腦是找到新工作的重要工具,所以我們允許所有離職的人保留他們的蘋果筆電。
▍Job support
Our goal is to connect our teammates leaving Airbnb with new job opportunities. Here are five ways we can help:
• Alumni Talent Directory — We will be launching a public-facing website to help teammates leaving find new jobs. Departing employees can opt-in to have profiles, resumes, and work samples accessible to potential employers.
• Alumni Placement Team — For the remainder of 2020, a significant portion of Airbnb Recruiting will become an Alumni Placement Team. Recruiters that are staying with Airbnb will provide support to departing employees to help them find their next job.
• RiseSmart — We are offering four months of career services through RiseSmart, a company that specializes in career transition and job placement services.
• Employee Offered Alumni Support
We are encouraging all remaining employees to opt-in to a program to assist departing teammates find their next role.
• Laptops - A computer is an important tool to find new work, so we are allowing everyone leaving to keep their Apple laptops.
▍接下來會發生什麼呢?
我想盡快讓你們所有人知曉狀況。我們在 24 個國家/地區擁有員工,根據當地法律和慣例,提供清晰說明所需的時間各不相同。一些國家要求以非常具體的方式收到解僱通知。雖然我們的流程可能因國家而異,但我們在為每一位員工制定計劃時都力求做到深思熟慮。
在美國和加拿大,我可以提供直接的信息。在接下來的幾個小時內,即將離開 Airbnb 的人將收到一份日曆邀請函,邀請你們與本部門的一位高層領導參加離職會議。對我們來說,重要的是,在法律允許的範圍內,人們可以通過 1:1 的個人對話獲得信息。美國和加拿大離職員工的最後一個工作日將是 5月11日(星期一)。我們認為,週一將給人們時間開始採取下一步行動,並且有機會道別——我們理解並尊重這一點有多麼重要。
一些留下來的員工將賦予新的職位,並將收到主題為「新職位」的會議邀請,以瞭解更多相關信息。對於那些在美國和加拿大的 Airbnb 團隊成員,你將不會收到日曆邀請。
▍Here is what will happen next
I want to provide clarity to all of you as soon as possible. We have employees in 24 countries, and the time it will take to provide clarity will vary based on local laws and practices. Some countries require notifications about employment to be received in a very specific way. While our process may differ by country, we have tried to be thoughtful in planning for every employee. In the US and Canada, I can provide immediate clarity. Within the next few hours, those of you leaving Airbnb will receive a calendar invite to a departure meeting with a senior leader in your department.
It was important to us that wherever we legally could, people were informed in a personal, 1:1 conversation. The final working day for departing employees based in the US and Canada will be Monday, May 11. We felt Monday would give people time to begin taking next steps and say goodbye — we understand and respect how important this is.
Some employees who are staying will have a new role, and will receive a meeting invite with the subject “New Role” to learn more about it. For those of you in the US and Canada who are staying on the Airbnb team, you will not receive a calendar invite.
太平洋時間下午6點,我將為我們的亞太團隊主持一個 world@ 全球會議。太平洋時間上午12點,我將為我們的歐洲和中東團隊主持一個 world@ 全球會議。在每次會議之後,我們將根據當地的做法在每個國家開展下一步工作。
出於對我們受到影響的隊友的尊重,我已經要求所有
Airbnb 的負責人等到本週末再召集他們的團隊。我想給大家接下來的幾天時間來處理這個問題,我將在太平洋時間本週四下午 4 點再次主持一場 CEO 問答。
At 6pm pacific time, I will host a world@ meeting for our Asia-Pacific teams. At 12am pacific time, I will host a world@ meeting for our Europe and Middle East teams. Following each of these meetings, we’ll proceed with next steps in each country based on local practices.
I’ve asked all Airbnb leaders to wait to bring their teams together until the end of this week out of respect to our teammates being impacted. I want to give everyone the next few days to process this, and I’ll host a CEO Q&A again this Thursday at 4pm pacific time.
▍一些最後的話
正如我在過去八周所瞭解到的,危機讓你清楚什麼才是真正重要的。雖然我們經歷了一場旋風,但有些事情對我來說比以往任何時候都清楚。
首先,我要感謝 Airbnb 的每一個人。在這段痛苦的經歷中,你們所有人都激勵了我。即使在最糟糕的情況下,我也看到了我們最好的一面。世界現在比以往任何時候都更需要人與人之間的聯繫,我知道 Airbnb 會在這種時空背景下崛起。我相信這一點,正因為我相信你們。
第二,我對各位有一種深深的愛。我們的任務不僅僅是旅行。當我們創建 Airbnb 時,我們最初的口號是「像個人一般旅行」,人的部分總是比旅行的部分更重要。我們所關心的是歸屬感,而歸屬感的核心是愛。
▍Some final words
As I have learned these past eight weeks, a crisis brings you clarity about what is truly important. Though we have been through a whirlwind, some things are more clear to me than ever before.
First, I am thankful for everyone here at Airbnb. Throughout this harrowing experience, I have been inspired by all of you. Even in the worst of circumstances, I’ve seen the very best of us. The world needs human connection now more than ever, and I know that Airbnb will rise to the occasion. I believe this because I believe in you.
Second, I have a deep feeling of love for all of you. Our mission is not merely about travel. When we started Airbnb, our original tagline was, “Travel like a human.” The human part was always more important than the travel part. What we are about is belonging, and at the center of belonging is love.
對於留下來的你們,
我們向那些即將離開的人致敬的最重要方式之一,是讓他們知道他們的貢獻是重要的,他們將永遠是 Airbnb 故事中的一部分。我相信,他們的貢獻將繼續下去,就像我們的使命將持續不斷一般。
對於那些離開 Airbnb 的人,
我真的很抱歉。請知道這不是你的錯。世界永遠不會停止渴望你們帶給 Airbnb 的品質和才華……正是你們成就了 Airbnb。我衷心感謝你們與我們分享你們的天賦。
布萊恩
To those of you staying, One of the most important ways we can honor those who are leaving is for them to know that their contributions mattered, and that they will always be part of Airbnb’s story. I am confident their work will live on, just like this mission will live on.
To those leaving Airbnb, I am truly sorry. Please know this is not your fault. The world will never stop seeking the qualities and talents that you brought to Airbnb…that helped make Airbnb. I want to thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for sharing them with us.

雖然我們知道 Airbnb 的業務終將恢復,但它所承受的變化不會是臨時或是短暫的。於是,我們需要對 Airbnb 做出更多根本性的改變,圍繞更專注的商業策略,去減少我們的員工規模。
While we know Airbnb’s business will fully recover, the changes it will undergo are not temporary or short-lived. Because of this, we need to make more fundamental changes to Airbnb by reducing the size of our workforce around a more focused business strategy.
在我們 7500 名 Airbnb 員工中,近 1900 名成員將不得不離開Airbnb,佔我們公司的 25% 左右。由於我們不能像過去那樣顧及每項業務,這些削減必須與更聚焦的業務掛鈎。
Out of our 7,500 Airbnb employees, nearly 1,900 teammates will have to leave Airbnb, comprising around 25% of our company. Since we cannot afford to do everything that we used to, these cuts had to be mapped to a more focused business.
▍更聚焦的業務
未來在這世界旅行將截然不同,我們需要相對應地讓 Airbnb 進化改變。人們會希望有更像家、更安全、更經濟實惠的選擇。人們也會渴望某種感覺被奪走的東西——人與人之間的連結。當我們創立 Airbnb 時,它是建立於歸屬感和連結之上。這場危機使我們更加專注於根本、最基礎的事物、讓我們回到 Airbnb 真正的特別之處——每天都有人打理自己的房子,並提供各式各樣體驗。
這意味著,我們將需要減少對不直接支持我們的房東社區核心的活動的投資。我們暫停了在通行和 Airbnb Studio 方面的努力,我們不得不縮減在飯店和 Lux 的投資。
這些決定並不是反應這些團隊成員工作表現好壞,也不意味著這些團隊的每個人都會離開我們。除此之外,所有Airbnb的團隊都將受到影響。許多團隊的規模將根據他們與Airbnb的發展方向的對應程度進行縮減。
▍A more focused business
Travel in this new world will look different, and we need to evolve Airbnb accordingly. People will want options that are closer to home, safer, and more affordable. But people will also yearn for something that feels like it’s been taken away from them — human connection. When we started Airbnb, it was about belonging and connection. This crisis has sharpened our focus to get back to our roots, back to the basics, back to what is truly special about Airbnb — everyday people who host their homes and offer experiences.

▍我們如何進行縮編
重要的是,我們要有一套明確的原則,以我們的核心價值觀為指導,指導我們如何減少我們的勞動力。這些是我們的指導原則:
• 將所有縮減過的業務範疇和我們將需要的人手一一對應。
• 為那些受到影響的人盡可能提供協助。
• 在過程中持續地保持團隊多樣性。
• 為那些受影響的人提供 1:1。
• 等到所有細節都確定後再進行決策溝通——僅部分訊息的透明會讓事情變得更糟。
我已經盡了最大的努力來堅持這些原則。
▍How we approached reductions
It was important that we had a clear set of principles, guided by our core values, for how we would approach reductions in our workforce. These were our guiding principles:
• Map all reductions to our future business strategy and the capabilities we will need.

• Wait to communicate any decisions until all details are landed — transparency of only partial information can make matters worse.
I have done my best to stay true to these principles.
▍還原決策過程
決策過程開始於建構一個更聚焦業務戰略的成本結構。我們評估了每個團隊如何適應我們的新戰略,並確定了每個團隊未來的規模和形式。然後,我們對每個團隊成員進行了全面地檢視,並根據關鍵技能以及這些技能與我們未來業務需求的匹配程度做出了決策。
結果是,我們將不得不與我們所熱愛和珍視的隊友們分道揚鑣。有很優秀的夥伴離開了Airbnb,其他公司有他們的加入著實幸運。
為了照顧那些即將離開的員工,我們一一檢視了遣散、股權、醫療保健和就業支持,並盡最大努力以同理並周詳的方式對待每個人。
▍Process for making reductions
Our process started with creating a more focused business strategy built on a sustainable cost model. We assessed how each team mapped to our new strategy, and we determined the size and shape of each team going forward. We then did a comprehensive review of every team member and made decisions based on critical skills, and how well those skills matched our future business needs.
The result is that we will have to part with teammates that we love and value. We have great people leaving Airbnb, and other companies will be lucky to have them. To take care of those that are leaving, we have looked across severance, equity, healthcare, and job support and done our best to treat everyone in a compassionate and thoughtful way.
▍資遣費
Airbnb 在美國的員工將獲得 14 周的基本工資,每滿一年額外增加一周。任期將四捨五入到最近的一年。例如,如果有人在Airbnb工作了 3 年 7 個月,他們將獲得額外 4 周的工資,或 18 周的總工資。在美國以外,所有員工都將獲得至少 14 周的工資,外加與其所在國家的具體做法一致的任期加薪。
▍Severance
Employees in the US will receive 14 weeks of base pay, plus one additional week for every year at Airbnb. Tenure will be rounded to the nearest year. For example, if someone has been at Airbnb for 3 years and 7 months, they will get an additional 4 weeks of salary, or 18 weeks of total pay. Outside the US, all employees will receive at least 14 weeks of pay, plus tenure increases consistent with their country-specific practices.
▍股權
我們將為過去一年內聘用的所有員工提供一整年的股權到期,這樣所有離職的員工,無論他們在公司工作了多長時間,都可以是 Airbnb 的股東。此外,所有離開的人都有資格以 5月25日作為行權日。
▍Equity
We are dropping the one-year cliff on equity for everyone we’ve hired in the past year so that everyone departing, regardless of how long they have been here, is a shareholder. Additionally, everyone leaving is eligible for the May 25 vesting date.
▍健康保險
在一場持續時間未知的全球健康危機中,我們希望限制醫療成本總負擔。在美國,我們將通過COBRA 覆蓋12個月的健康保險。在所有其他國家,我們將支付到2020年底的醫療保險費用。這是因為我們如非是在在法律上不能繼續承保,就是我們目前的計劃將不允許延長。我們額外將通過 KonTerra 提供四個月的心理健康支持。
▍Healthcare
In the midst of a global health crisis of unknown duration, we want to limit the burden of healthcare costs. In the US, we will cover 12 months of health insurance through COBRA. In all other countries, we will cover health insurance costs through the end of 2020. This is because we’re either legally unable to continue coverage, or our current plans will not allow for an extension. We will also provide four months of mental health support through KonTerra.
▍就業支持
我們的目標是幫助離開Airbnb的隊友找到新的工作機會。以下是我們可以提供幫助的五種方式:
• 校友人才目錄——我們將推出一個面向公眾的網站,幫助即將離職的隊友找到新工作。即將離職的員工可以選擇將個人資料、簡歷和工作樣本提供給潛在的雇主。
• 校友安置團隊——在 2020 年的剩餘時間里,Airbnb招聘的很大一部分將成為校友安置團隊。留在Airbnb的招聘人員將為離職員工提供支持,幫助他們找到下一份工作。
• RiseSmart——我們通過 RiseSmart 公司提供四個月的職業服務,該公司專門提供職業轉換和就業安置服務。
• 員工提供校友支持-我們鼓勵所有留下的員工選擇加入一個計劃,以幫助離職的隊友找到他們的下一個職位。
• 筆記本電腦——電腦是找到新工作的重要工具,所以我們允許所有離職的人保留他們的蘋果筆電。
▍Job support
Our goal is to connect our teammates leaving Airbnb with new job opportunities. Here are five ways we can help:
Alumni Talent Directory — We will be launching a public-facing website to help teammates leaving find new jobs. Departing employees can opt-in to have profiles, resumes, and work samples accessible to potential employers.
Alumni Placement Team — For the remainder of 2020, a significant portion of Airbnb Recruiting will become an Alumni Placement Team. Recruiters that are staying with Airbnb will provide support to departing employees to help them find their next job.
RiseSmart — We are offering four months of career services through RiseSmart, a company that specializes in career transition and job placement services. Employee Offered Alumni Support
We are encouraging all remaining employees to opt-in to a program to assist departing teammates find their next role. Laptops
A computer is an important tool to find new work, so we are allowing everyone leaving to keep their Apple laptops.
▍接下來會發生什麼呢?
我想盡快讓你們所有人知曉狀況。我們在 24 個國家/地區擁有員工,根據當地法律和慣例,提供清晰說明所需的時間各不相同。一些國家要求以非常具體的方式收到解僱通知。雖然我們的流程可能因國家而異,但我們在為每一位員工制定計劃時都力求做到深思熟慮。
在美國和加拿大,我可以提供直接的信息。在接下來的幾個小時內,即將離開Airbnb的人將收到一份日曆邀請函,邀請你們與本部門的一位高層領導參加離職會議。對我們來說,重要的是,在法律允許的範圍內,人們可以通過 1:1 的個人對話獲得信息。美國和加拿大離職員工的最後一個工作日將是 5月11日(星期一)。我們認為,週一將給人們時間開始採取下一步行動,並且有機會道別——我們理解並尊重這一點有多麼重要。
一些留下來的員工將賦予新的職位,並將收到主題為"新職位"的會議邀請,以瞭解更多相關信息。對於那些在美國和加拿大的 Airbnb 團隊成員,你將不會收到日曆邀請。
▍Here is what will happen next
I want to provide clarity to all of you as soon as possible. We have employees in 24 countries, and the time it will take to provide clarity will vary based on local laws and practices. Some countries require notifications about employment to be received in a very specific way. While our process may differ by country, we have tried to be thoughtful in planning for every employee. In the US and Canada, I can provide immediate clarity. Within the next few hours, those of you leaving Airbnb will receive a calendar invite to a departure meeting with a senior leader in your department.
It was important to us that wherever we legally could, people were informed in a personal, 1:1 conversation. The final working day for departing employees based in the US and Canada will be Monday, May 11. We felt Monday would give people time to begin taking next steps and say goodbye — we understand and respect how important this is.
Some employees who are staying will have a new role, and will receive a meeting invite with the subject “New Role” to learn more about it. For those of you in the US and Canada who are staying on the Airbnb team, you will not receive a calendar invite.
太平洋時間下午6點,我將為我們的亞太團隊主持一個 World@ 全球會議。太平洋時間上午12點,我將為我們的歐洲和中東團隊主持一個 World@ 全球會議。在每次會議之後,我們將根據當地的做法在每個國家開展下一步工作。
出於對我們受到影響的隊友的尊重,我已經要求所有Airbnb的負責人等到本週末再召集他們的團隊。我想給大家接下來的幾天時間來處理這個問題,我將在太平洋時間本週四下午4點再次主持一場 CEO 問答。
At 6pm pacific time, I will host a world@ meeting for our Asia-Pacific teams. At 12am pacific time, I will host a world@ meeting for our Europe and Middle East teams. Following each of these meetings, we’ll proceed with next steps in each country based on local practices.
I’ve asked all Airbnb leaders to wait to bring their teams together until the end of this week out of respect to our teammates being impacted. I want to give everyone the next few days to process this, and I’ll host a CEO Q&A again this Thursday at 4pm pacific time.
▍一些最後的話
正如我在過去八周所瞭解到的,危機讓你清楚什麼才是真正重要的。雖然我們經歷了一場旋風,但有些事情對我來說比以往任何時候都清楚。
首先,我要感謝Airbnb的每一個人。在這段痛苦的經歷中,你們所有人都激勵了我。即使在最糟糕的情況下,我也看到了我們最好的一面。世界現在比以往任何時候都更需要人與人之間的聯繫,我知道Airbnb會在這種時空邊下崛起。我相信這一點,正因為我相信你們。
第二,我對各位有一種深深的愛。我們的任務不僅僅是旅行。當我們創建Airbnb時,我們最初的口號是"像個人一般旅行",人的部分總是比旅行的部分更重要。我們所關心的是歸屬感,而歸屬感的核心是愛。
▍Some final words
As I have learned these past eight weeks, a crisis brings you clarity about what is truly important. Though we have been through a whirlwind, some things are more clear to me than ever before.
First, I am thankful for everyone here at Airbnb. Throughout this harrowing experience, I have been inspired by all of you. Even in the worst of circumstances, I’ve seen the very best of us. The world needs human connection now more than ever, and I know that Airbnb will rise to the occasion. I believe this because I believe in you.
Second, I have a deep feeling of love for all of you. Our mission is not merely about travel. When we started Airbnb, our original tagline was, “Travel like a human.” The human part was always more important than the travel part. What we are about is belonging, and at the center of belonging is love.
對你們留下來的人,我們向那些即將離開的人致敬的最重要方式之一,是讓他們知道他們的貢獻是重要的,他們將永遠是Airbnb故事中的一部分。我相信,他們的貢獻將繼續下去,就像我們的使命將持續不斷一般。
對於那些離開Airbnb的人,我真的很抱歉。請知道這不是你的錯。世界永遠不會停止渴望你們帶給Airbnb的品質和才華……正是你們成就了Airbnb。我衷心感謝你們與我們分享你們的天賦。
布萊恩
To those of you staying, One of the most important ways we can honor those who are leaving is for them to know that their contributions mattered, and that they will always be part of Airbnb’s story. I am confident their work will live on, just like this mission will live on.
To those leaving Airbnb, I am truly sorry. Please know this is not your fault. The world will never stop seeking the qualities and talents that you brought to Airbnb…that helped make Airbnb. I want to thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for sharing them with us.

這次要來跟 @旅行YJ @諾斯Nox @後撤步 一起來玩密室逃脫桌遊《大搜查》! 真的是被這個遊戲搞到腦細胞死一堆啦!
以下介紹來自https://kknews.cc/zh-tw/news/oane6rp.html
謎題,從人類文明誕生之際開始一直延續至今。比如經典的斯芬克斯之謎:「什麼動物早晨用四條腿走路,中午用兩條腿走路,晚上用三條腿走路?腿最多的時候,也正是他走路最慢,體力最弱的時候。」從公元前400年左右被創作出來至今依然為人們所津津樂道。而到了21世紀,這個人類最為傳統的興趣愛好也與時俱進的以遊戲的姿態再次出現在我們的眼前。在當代,解謎遊戲一直是遊戲中的一個重要分類。從網際網路萌芽時代的《逃離紅色房間》,到剛推出不久的《銹湖》系列遊戲,雖然表現的形式稍有改變,但一直占有自己的角落,靜靜的發出璀璨的光輝。
在桌遊的世界當然也不會缺少解謎遊戲的身影。比如最近在摩點大熱並籌得了超過兩千萬人民幣的話題作品《迷宮·如意琳琅圖籍》就是一個圖書的形式將謎題呈獻到玩家眼前的桌遊。不過他並不是今天筆者要介紹的遊戲(畢竟還沒正式發貨並沒有辦法介紹)。今天真正要介紹的桌遊是另一個頗受推崇的解謎遊戲,也就是近期剛剛推出中文版的《大搜查(Unlock)》
《大搜查》是一個推出於2017年的系列作品,遊戲由一系列的卡牌組成。玩家在遊戲中的最終目標是在一個小時的時間內得出一個四位數的密碼逃離「密室」。在不同的劇本中密室所代表的意義也有所不同可能是個封閉住的房間也可能是一個荒島。這根據劇本的不同而不同——每一個劇本都是一個獨立的小故事。目前推出了中文版的是大搜查的第一季。打開遊戲外盒就可以看到作為劇本象徵的整整齊齊的三刀牌,但這其實還並不全部的遊戲配件。
《大搜查》在實際的遊戲進行中,除了需要這些卡牌之外,還有一個不在遊戲盒子中,但地位舉足輕重的額外配件,也就是APP,大搜查的遊戲無法脫離這個APP來完成。APP在這個遊戲中扮演的角色遠遠大於一個單純的計時器,他除了用於記錄一個小時的時間經過了多少之外,還負責驗證密碼正確與否,機關的破解方法是否正確,玩家錯誤嘗試扣除時間以及玩家提示。
這個提醒的作用要比想像中大很多,解謎遊戲中出現卡關再正常不過了,如果只是需要時間還好,但很多時候玩家卡關的原因是與設計師的腦迴路對不上,或者說沒有理解到設計師的用意,因為這種原因而造成的卡關往往無法通過時間來解決。比如《時間守望》基礎劇本的最終謎題筆者就因為這層原因卡了一個多小時,如果不是看了網上大神的攻略恐怕就要強行開門了。但在《大搜查》遊戲中,因為有了這個提示功能,雖然失去了些許懸念,但至少遊戲能順利的進行下去。
遊戲規則
遊戲中的主要卡牌分為四類:地點,物品,機關,密碼。
地點即是遊戲中的我們所處在的密室,在遊戲中起始卡背面必然是地點卡,地點卡上會有許多數字和字母代表著在遊戲中我們可以調查的事物(當然有些會隱藏起來,如果不仔細觀察是找不到的)。物品卡就很直接的是遊戲中我們獲得的物品了。物品的頂端通常會分為紅藍兩種,如果你覺得兩件物品組合在一起可能會發生奇妙的效果時,可以將這兩張卡的編號相加並打開對應的卡牌。機關卡意味著一個機關,我們需要在APP中輸入對應的號碼來開始挑戰機關,機關的正確解法可能就在機關自身之中,但也可能是需要在其他卡牌上尋找線索。密碼卡的意義就簡單了,它代表了這個地方有一道鎖,當玩家獲得了正確的密碼之後輸入APP,就會得到相對應的內容,如果這就是最終要打開的門的話,玩家也就通關了,遊戲會根據玩家在遊戲中的表現(耗時,錯誤嘗試,尋求提示次數等)給玩家得出一個最終得分,當然對於筆者這樣的體驗向玩家來說,只要能通關就好了(笑)
遊戲劇本
遊戲的第一季里包含了四個劇本,一個教學劇本和三個正式劇本。教學劇本由十張卡組成,但包含了正式遊戲中的所有內容,它會手把手帶著玩家了解這個遊戲如何進行,實際上可以起到一個代替說明書的作用——當然正式的說明書還是存在的。
遊戲的其他三個劇本就是正式的遊戲內容了,他們分別出自三個作者之手,每個作品的風格各不相同,劇情上也沒有什麼連貫性,應該算是獨立的。因為作者不同的原因,謎題的傾向也有所不同,比如第二個劇本「香腸鼠俠」就和其他兩個劇本迥然不同,不僅畫風無厘頭,很多謎題也十分的無厘頭。不過為了保證玩家的體驗我就不多講了,此間真意就留給玩家朋友們自己去體會吧。
作為一款A社漢化的劇本類遊戲,就不得不順便聊一聊它的翻譯,畢竟A社再翻譯上有著很多不光彩的過去。不過這次A社的翻譯還是做的不錯的,至少在筆者遊玩的時候並沒有遇到什麼嚴重影響遊戲進行的BUG,大家可以安心購買。不過倒是有一個非翻譯問題帶來的BUG嚴重影響了遊戲。那就是教學任務中的67指的實際上是69,這個問題是英文一版就有的,並且在二版進行了糾正。而A社在推出中文版時是根據英文一版來的,這個錯誤並沒有糾正,而是完美的繼承了下來,讓大家可以體驗「原汁原味的錯誤冒險」。大家在進行遊戲的時候千萬要多留意一下。
小結
《大搜查》是我目前玩過的最好的劇情向遊戲之一,他在遊戲體驗上十分靠近電子遊戲的解謎遊戲和真人的密室逃脫。和電腦上的解謎遊戲相比在一些設定上還是有不同的,比如隱藏數字。在卡片上沒找到就是沒找到,可不存在靠亂點矇混過關的可能性哦(笑)。另一個不同在於可以和小夥伴們互動,小夥伴們群策群力逃出生天的感覺是電子遊戲里無法獲得的。
而且在《大搜查》的後期一些劇本中甚至還會出現一些需要兩組人通力合作才能完成的謎題,實際上已經超過了電子遊戲的能力範圍里,充分發揮了桌遊的優勢(雖然這個劇本真的很難)。而相比與真人的密室逃脫相比,《大搜查》的最大特點就在於體量,遊戲的本體只是一刀牌,攜帶方便,開局也方便。不過這三類遊戲體驗各不相同,難分伯仲,各種取捨還是要看玩家自己的傾向了。
《大搜查》比較創新的採用了APP來輔助遊戲,這個模式曾經很少見,但隨著時代的發展也漸漸變的多了起來,比如《瘋狂詭宅》第二版就也採用了APP輔助遊戲的這個模式。不過實際上最初看到這個模式筆者是不太喜歡的,畢竟桌遊的一大特點在於可以不插電的進行遊玩,用插電的設備來輔助本應不插電的桌遊讓人不由得覺得有些失去本心。但是實際體驗下來,APP的表現確實非常好,讓筆者不由得說一句真香。APP的加入能提供很多一般桌遊配件很難給予玩家的東西,比如時限步步逼近的緊張感,比如說用聲畫和遊戲的配合,不採用這種模式的話是絕難做到的。另一方面還可以封印一個玩家的手機讓他專心投入到桌遊當中,更是妙不可言(笑)。
《大搜查》的外文版目前總共推出了五個季度十五個劇本,這對於一個2017年推出的遊戲來說算是比較誇張了,不過作為一個以劇情為賣點的遊戲,擴展多意味著玩家可以體驗到的內容多,實際上也是一件好事。雖然目前中文只推出了第一季度的中文版,但是開坑的畢竟是A社,至少應該不會出現挖坑不填的現象。如果你是一個密室愛好者,又或者是一個愛好思考愛好解謎的玩家,這都是極為合適的遊戲,不妨趕快去入手吧。

This is an English cover of "Sekai ni Hitotsu Dake no Hana" (The Only Flower in the World), a well-known song performed by Japanese boy band SMAP (founded in 1988 and disbanded just last year in 2016), with lyrics by singer-songwriter Noriyuki Makihara.
While I usually create my own translations, there was already a fantastic English version of this song by Hiromi De Young (YouTube linked below in the credits), and a great translation of the chorus by Nelson Babin-Coy (channel also linked). I used my favorite parts of each of these and made a few of my own changes.
I hope this song's message of acceptance and uniqueness reaches a larger audience through my cover.
Enjoy!
*Note: As usual, most of the translation is very close to the original meaning, but the second pre-chorus (the verse starting with "I saw a small flower...") is actually quite different from the original. However, I loved these lyrics so much that I kept them :)
The original meaning of the verse in Japanese is:
I didn't even know his name
But he gave me a smile that day
Just like a flower that was blooming
In a place where nobody would notice it
~♪~♪~♪~♪~♪~
今日は、昨年解散したSMAPの「世界に一つだけの花」を英語で歌ってみました♪
今回の英語詞はいつもと違って他人の訳詞を使わせていただきました。Hiromi De Youngによる素晴らしい英訳とNelson Babin-Coyによるサビ部分の素敵な英訳に、自分の変更を少し入れて歌わせていただきました。(お二人のYouTubeチャンネルへのリンクは下記のクレジットに記載しました。)
私のカバーを通じて、他人に対する寛容さと個性の大切さという、この曲のメッセージがより多くの人に伝わると嬉しいです。Enjoy!
※ちなみに、この英訳はいつものようにかなり原曲の歌詞に近いのですが、2番目のBメロ(「I saw a small flower」から始まるところ)だけが原曲の意味とかなり離れています。それでも、ここの英語詞があまりにも素敵だったのでそのままにしました(^^)/
I saw a small flower as I walked by
通り過ぎたら小さな花を見つけた
It stretched from the shadows to reach for the sky
その花は影の中から空へと伸びていた
I thought to myself, what if I was that way
そして思った 私もその花と同じように
Reaching for my own dream and saying...
自分の夢に手を伸ばして こう言おう

No. 1にならなくてもいい
(No. 1 ni naranakute mo ii)
もともと特別なOnly one
(moto-moto tokubetsu na "Only one")
I saw all the flowers lined up on display
The shop full of colors with their scented embrace
We all have a blossom we like more than the rest
But I think, with flowers, they all are the best
No fighting or envy, they never contend
But smile in the sunlight and sway in the wind
They all know their mission, it fills them with pride
Everyone is different yet all are alike
I wonder why people must always compare
And judge one another it seems so unfair
To place color, status, and looks to the test
For how can these show us who’s the best?
Just like these flowers
In the whole wide world, you are one of a kind
Cherish your uniqueness, no, you don't need to hide it
Each one of us holds our own special seed
So just be true to you, that's all you'll ever need
A man stood beside me and peered with a sigh
He puzzled and pondered but could not decide
With so many flowers and various hues
All were so pretty, which one should he choose?
Suddenly, a big smile broke out on his face
Flowers in all different colors and shapes
He gathered up a bouquet with one of each kind
Hugging them softly with joy in his mind
I saw a small flower as I walked by
It stretched from the shadows to reach for the sky
I thought to myself, what if I was that way
Reaching for my own dream and saying...
そうさ 僕らも世界に一つだけの花
(sou sa bokura mo sekai ni hitotsu dake no hana)
一人一人違う種を持つ
(hitori hitori chigau tane wo motsu)
その花を咲かせることだけに
(sono hana wo sakaseru koto dake ni)
一生懸命になればいい
(isshou-kenmei ni nareba ii)
Small flowers, big flowers, all kinds of flowers
You will never find one that’s just like any other
So you don’t need to struggle to be number one
Just be yourself because there’s only one
La la la la...
