You know how people tell you if you get nervous when onstage,

你知道大家常說 如果你在臺上感到緊張，

Like it's this thing that's supposed to make you feel better.

就想像臺下的觀眾都沒穿衣服？

好像這麼做會讓你感覺好點一樣。

picturing all of you naked in 2018 feels kind of weird and wrong.

Like, we're working really hard on moving past stuff like that,

在 2018 年還想像你們沒穿衣服 感覺實在有點奇怪和不對勁。

is that I can look at you as much as you're looking at me --

當你們看著我的時候， 我也同樣能盯著你們——

then we'd all be really comfortable, right?

So in preparation for this talk, I made myself a shirt.

那麽我們彼此凝望的時候 會更自在，不是嗎？

所以為了這個演講， 我給自己做了件衣服。

And being able to look at you as much as you're looking at me

用了227個鼓鼓小眼睛 來完成這件衣服。

is actually only half of the reason I made this.

為了可以用它來盯著你們所有人， 像你們現在看著我一樣，

只是創造這件衣服的一半原因。

另一半原因是為了可以這樣做。

I see a problem and I invent some sort of solution to it.

我發現一個問題， 然後我就發明解決它的東西。

Like, it's this thing we all have to do, it's kind of boring,

這是我們都要做的事， 確實有點無聊，

If there were any seven-year-olds in the audience,

So what about if you had a machine that could do it for you?

所以如果你有個 可以幫你刷牙的機器呢？

So my toothbrush helmet is recommended by zero out of 10 dentists,

and it definitely did not revolutionize the world of dentistry,

所以，10 個牙醫裡有 0 位 推薦了我的自助刷牙頭盔，

當然它沒能帶來牙科界的革命，

Because I finished making this toothbrush helmet three years ago

但它確實徹底改變了我的生活。

因為三年前我創造了 這個自助刷牙頭盔，

I went into my living room and I put up a camera,

and I filmed a seven-second clip of it working.

我走進了客廳，放了一臺攝影機，

this is a pretty standard modern-day fairy tale

thousands of men voyage into the comment sections

網路如暴風雨般席捲了這個女孩，

She ignores all of them, starts a YouTube channel

她無視了這一切， 開始了一個 YouTube 頻道，

Since then, I've carved out this little niche for myself on the internet

從那以後，我就在網路上 為自己設計了這個小世界，

當一個發明無用之物的發明家，

the easiest way to be at the top of your field

在你所處的領域登峰造極， 最簡單的方式

So I run a YouTube channel about my machines,

and I've done things like cutting hair with drones --

所以我開始了一個 YouTube 頻道 發佈我發明的小機器，

我做過的事包含用無人機剪髮——

To a machine that helps me wake up in the morning --

還有發明了一個 早上叫我起床的機器——

To this machine that helps me chop vegetables.

還有這個能幫我切蔬菜的機器。

But I was a super ambitious student growing up.

In middle school and high school, I had straight A's,

中學的時候，我的成績一直都拿甲，

I struggled with very severe performance anxiety.

Here's an email I sent to my brother around that time.

"You won't understand how difficult it is for me to tell you,

這是一封我當時發給我哥的郵件，

｢你不會懂對我來說， 告訴你這個有多困難，

I don't want people to think that I'm stupid.

And no, I did not accidentally burn our parents' house down.

The thing I'm writing about in the email and the thing I'm so upset about

當然，我並沒有意外 把我爸媽家燒了，

我在郵件裡寫的事， 我如此難過的事，

So something obviously happened between here and here.

是因為我在數學考試中拿了乙。

在這兩個時間點之間 一定有什麽事發生在我身上了。
