很多人曾經問過他
why would you pay engineers $120,000 or more
為什么他要花12萬美元的年薪,甚至更多
to do something that you can pay other people a fraction of to handle in like a call center?
去雇傭工程師當客服而不是花很小部分錢建立客服中心呢?

他回答說,關于同一個問題接到兩三個電話后
and the engineer gets the same problem they stop what they're doing,

they fix the bug, and we stop getting phone calls about it.

Now, criticism is basically people starting to focus,
批評,指的是
not just on the specific issue at hand, but on the overarching issues.
不僅僅批評某一件事,而是整個的否定
Like, you never, right, listen to your users or you never think about us all the time. Right?
例如你從來不聽客戶的心聲,你從來不考慮我們的感受
Contempt is when someone is purposely trying to insult somebody.
輕視是指,故意地侮辱他人
Defensiveness is not trying to take accountability trying to make excuses for the actions.
防御是指拒絕承擔責任總是為行為找借口
And stonewalling is basically shutting down.

Stonewalling, to John Gotman, is, is one of the worst things that we can do in a relationship.
在John Gotman看來冷戰是導致創業散伙的最重要的原因
