Salad Dressing
.
I'll give you some examples of what modern progress has made possible for us. This is my supermarket. Not such a big one. I want to say just a word about salad dressing. A hundred seventy-five salad dressings in my supermarket. If you don't count the 10 extra-virgin olive oils and 12 balsamic vinegars you could buy to make a very large number of your own salad dressings, in the off-chance that none of the 175 the store has on offer suit you. So this is what the supermarket is like.
Paradox Of Choice |
Aku akan memberikan contoh untukmu. Misal aku mempunyai Supermarket, meskipun tidak terlalu besar. Akan aku tunjukkan salah satu etalasenya pada Salad Dressing (Bumbu dari Salad). 175 Bumbu dari salad itu ada di Supermarket ku. Jika kau menghitungnya misal
10 minyak zaitun perasan pertama, dan 12 cuka balsam yang engkau bisa membelinya di dalam jumlah besar di campuran saus salad mu. Dan itu menjadikan jenisnya akan sampai pada 175jenis yang kutawarkan padamu. Kalian bisa melihatnya di gambar.
And then you go to the consumer electronics store to set up a stereo system
- speakers,
- CD player,
- tape player,
- tuner,
- amplifier.
And in this one single consumer electronics store, there are that many stereo systems. We can construct six and a half million different stereo systems out of the components that are on offer in one store. You've got to admit that's a lot of choice.
Dan kemudian Kau mungkin pergi ke toko elektronik konsumen untuk memasang sistem stereo
- pembicara,
- Pemutar CD,
- pemutar kaset,
- penyetel,
- penguat.
Dan di satu toko elektronik konsumen ini, terdapat banyak sistem stereo. Kami dapat membuat enam setengah juta sistem stereo berbeda dari komponen yang ditawarkan di satu toko. Kau harus mengakui bahwa itu banyak pilihan.
In other domains, the world of communications. There was a time, when I was a boy, when you could get any kind of telephone service you wanted, as long as it came from Ma Bell. You rented your phone, you didn't buy it. One consequence of that, by the way, is that the phone never broke. And those days are gone. We now have an almost unlimited variety of phones, especially in the world of cell phones. These are cell phones of the future.
Di domain lain, dunia komunikasi. Ada suatu masa, ketika kau masih kecil, bisa mendapatkan layanan telepon, apa pun yang kau inginkan, asalkan beli dari Ma-Bell. Kau menyewa telepon, tidak membelinya. Salah satu konsekuensinya adalah ponsel tidak pernah rusak. Dan hari-hari itu telah berlalu.
Kita sekarang memiliki jenis telepon yang hampir tidak terbatas, terutama di dunia telepon seluler. Ini adalah ponsel masa depan.
My favorite is the middle one,
- the MP3 player,
- nose hair trimmer,
- and crème brûlée torch
