[文章]野蠻遊戲3:桌遊面具背後繼續揭開💕
5.以娛樂為包裝的價值觀輸入
_選擇什麼遊戲,就是傳達什麼世界觀。_
每一款桌遊背後都潛藏一套價值觀:
- 有的強調背叛與欺騙;
- 有的鼓勵合作與信任;
- 有的呈現資源掠奪與階級制度;
- 有的建構烏托邦式秩序。
主辦者長期傾向於選擇某一類型的遊戲,可能並非偶然。這種重複性的選擇,其實就是在潛移默化地輸出一種*特定的世界觀與人際觀*。例如:
- 偏好背叛遊戲者,可能潛意識相信「信任是愚蠢的」;
- 偏好優勝劣敗機制者,或許認為「人生就是競爭」;
- 偏好合作遊戲者,可能渴望「控制團隊節奏」來實現掌控感。
這些價值觀不會明說,但會滲透進參與者的行為模式與認知結構。久而久之,一個常參加特定主辦者活動的群體,可能會逐漸內化那些*被默默灌輸的思想模板*。
👁️ *貼地提醒*:唔係遊戲教你點做人,而係主辦人用遊戲教你點睇世界,左右你價值觀。
---
6. 以活動為形式的人格測試場
_你係邊類人?主辦者可能已經有答案。_
某些主辦者對心理學、人格分析、MBTI、九型人格等有濃厚興趣,甚至熱衷於將這些理論應用在活動設計與人群觀察上。這樣的主辦者可能:
- 觀察誰在壓力下會妥協、誰會反抗;
- 留意誰善於操控局勢、誰容易情緒化;
- 測試不同「人格類型」在不同遊戲類型的表現;
- 在活動後私下歸類、評價、選擇「下一次要唔要再邀」。
這種行為本質上是一種*非正式的人格分析實驗*,主辦者將參加者當作「樣本」,而不是單純的朋友或玩家。參加者並不知情自己正被歸檔、標籤,甚至可能因此被排除於未來活動之外。
更深層的問題在於:這種分類並非基於專業診斷,而是出於主辦者主觀判斷,容易造成*社交偏見*與*角色定型*。
👁️ *貼地提醒*:你以為你係朋友,可能你只係一個測試結果,與他內心盤算中的一隻棋子。
---
🧠 小結:
當主辦者的動機從「一起玩得開心」逐漸轉變為「建立影響力」、「操控互動」或「觀察人性」,整個桌遊活動便不再只是娛樂,而是一個充滿潛意識權力結構的微型社會。
參加者若缺乏察覺,很容易就成為這場「心理劇場」中的角色,而未必知道自己正在被觀察、操縱或分類。

Queer Book Club #32 – ‘The Safekeep’ by Yael van der Wouden
Join us for dinner and discussion about queer books! For our next book, we will be reading **‘The Safekeep’** by **Yael van der Wouden**.
**Blurb**
An exhilarating, twisted tale of desire, suspicion, and obsession between two women staying in the same house in the Dutch countryside during the summer of 1961—a powerful exploration of the legacy of WWII and the darker parts of our collective past.
A house is a precious thing...
It is 1961 and the rural Dutch province of Overijssel is quiet. Bomb craters have been filled, buildings reconstructed, and the war is truly over. Living alone in her late mother’s country home, Isabel knows her life is as it should be—led by routine and discipline. But all is upended when her brother Louis brings his graceless new girlfriend Eva, leaving her at Isabel’s doorstep as a guest, to stay for the season.
**The Plan**

Software ate the world, Agents are eating Software Engineering
2026 may be the last year many developers write code by hand. We need coding agents to solve complex problems in production codebases, but vibe coding alone won’t get us there. Vibe coding is all gas, no brakes. It burns up the context window until the agent slips on its own slop. You can go fast at first, but the more you stuff into the context window, the more tangled its outputs get. While the industry is rapidly increasing code generation speed, we still have to understand, review, merge, and maintain what gets shipped.
This talk featuring Michael Geiger will outline how coding agents (Claude Code + Gas Town) work and a framework for orchestrating them to solve complicated problems in complex codebases. It’s about steering the model: doing the research to align intent, planning the approach up front, implementing in parallel steps, and breaking early. Human judgment still matters, but it should be spent on high-leverage decisions: what to build, what to forbid, and “what is quality?”, not cleaning up slop. Attendees will leave with a checklist to identify workflow and environment gaps that hold agents back, so you and your team can ship higher-quality software starting tomorrow.
Intro to GitHub Copilot: Your AI Pair Programmer - Chris Steele
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
**Abstract**
GitHub Copilot is rapidly changing how developers write, understand, and maintain code. Powered by generative AI and deeply integrated into modern development environments, Copilot acts as an intelligent coding assistant, helping developers move faster while maintaining quality and focus.
In this session, we’ll explore what GitHub Copilot is, how it works, and where it fits into a real-world developer workflow. We’ll break down what Copilot can (and cannot) do, where it can be used, and how licensing differs for individuals and organizations. Most importantly, this talk goes beyond theory with a live, hands-on demo showcasing Copilot inside the IDE and on GitHub, demonstrating how it can assist with code generation, refactoring, learning new APIs, and accelerating day-to-day development tasks.
Designed for developers, technical leads, and engineering managers, this session provides a practical introduction to AI-assisted development, highlights best practices for getting value from Copilot, and closes with guidance on how to continue learning and evolving alongside this rapidly advancing tool.
Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of how GitHub Copilot can enhance productivity, improve developer experience, and fit into modern software teams today, not someday.
