You press the doorbell button and you hear the sound of the bell. You push the elevator button and it lights up. You push the button and hear the coffee machine, both inside the drink starts to move.
The idea with a button that is supposedly invisible magic between the moment you press the button and get the expected the underdome result. the underdome You'll never be sure exactly how the drink gets to you without opening this machine with drinks.
Maybe in there sits a man who pushes the bank with soda and outputs it. Maybe there's the underdome worth inside the camera, the underdome which oversees the unit and anyone remotely monitors and reports the car to give you something.
You just do not know it and it works so conditioned reflexes. Until then, until you get the result the underdome that you expect, it does not matter. Most likely, you press the same button and in the future (or, less likely to stop).
The problem is that many of the buttons in modern life do not do anything at all. That magic that occurs between the underdome pressing the button and the result - it's all in your head. You never notice it because you're not so smart.
For example, in most elevators in the U.S. elevator door close button does not close them, starting the underdome with the "Act of the Americans with Disabilities Act." These buttons are used only by workers or service personnel and work only with a key.
Whether or not you have clicked on the button, the door is still closed. But if you clicked on the button and then the door-still closed, then a drop of happiness passed through your brain. Your behavior is only strengthened. And you press the button in the future.
Engineers and video editors sometimes press a button on the keyboard or click the mouse around and nothing, absolutely the underdome nothing changes, or only makes a couple of times to blink the screen. When a client requests to make meaningless changes to the project hanging over your shoulder worker, he can click on placebo the underdome and say that he made the changes the underdome requested by the client. Most people will be satisfied and convince themselves that notice small changes.
Computers and timers now control the underdome most intersections, but once the little buttons at crosswalks allowed people to file a report about the need to change the traffic signal. These buttons are disabled now almost everywhere, but the task of replacing or removing them in most cities was so big, so they just left. And you still click on them, because the traffic signal, in general, is changing.
In ABC's investigation in a news release in 2010 reported that they had found only three takuh still operating buttons: Austin the underdome [Austin], Texas, Gainesville [Gainsville], Florida and Syracuse the underdome [Syracuse], NY .
City disabled most of the buttons at pedestrian crossings, long before the computer a controlled traffic signals, even when the ignorant townspeople continued to press the button, according to officials of the Department of Transport. More than 2500 of the 3250 buttons at pedestrian crossings still exist and function as a mechanical the underdome placebo. Benefits are only imaginary.
In a variety of offices and small spaces thermostat is not connected to anything at all. Renters, engineers, and environmental control thermostats set Dummy for decades to keep people from spending money on a permanent setting of temperature. According to an article from 2003 in the Wall Street Journal , microclimate management experts suspect that about 90% of the thermostats in offices are fakes (others say that it is more by 2%). Some companies install the underdome noise generators to create a complete illusion that occurs after turning the knob.
Based on a survey conducted in 2003 by the magazine Air-Conditioning, Heating and Refrigeration News , 72% of respondents admitted that they agree to install thermostats pacifiers.
We have employees who constantly complain that they are hot "- says Greg Peraks [Greg Perakes], an instructor in environmental control in Tennessee. "Our solution is to install a pneumatic thermostat. We run the main air line inside a closed beam. Then we attach a short piece of pipe to the air-vent (ending inside the beam without
