DESCRIPTION:<a href="http://popcornclubshanghai.com/event/how-apps-engineer
 -your-behaviour-dark-patterns-in-ux-design-45835/register">How Apps Engine
 er Your Behaviour: Dark Patterns In UX Design</a>\nYou open an app for one
  minute and somehow you're still scrolling twenty minutes later. You try t
 o cancel a subscription and suddenly the button seems impossible to find. 
 A hotel has "ONLY 1 ROOM LEFT!" and Duolingo's sad little owl is making yo
 u feel guilty for missing Spanish practice. Coincidence? Probably not. In 
 this fascinating discussion hosted by Popcorn Club tech expert Omar\, we'l
 l explore dark patterns—the clever design techniques apps and websites u
 se to influence what we click\, buy\, continue\, share and come back for. 
 We'll uncover ideas like the Roach Motel\, confirmshaming and fake scarcit
 y\, and ask just how deliberately our digital environments are engineered 
 to push our psychological buttons. We'll also look at perhaps the most fam
 iliar trick of all: infinite scroll\, the simple design feature that remov
 ed the natural moment when we might otherwise decide to stop. Why are thes
 e techniques so effective even when we know they're being used? Where is t
 he line between good design\, clever marketing and manipulation? And\, mos
 t importantly\, once you understand the tricks\, can you become harder to 
 manipulate? Expect real examples\, surprising psychology\, plenty of laugh
 s and a slightly uncomfortable new perspective on the apps you use every d
 ay. You may never look at a "LIMITED TIME OFFER\," a crying cartoon mascot
  or the bottomless WeChat feed quite the same way again. 你本来只想
 刷一分钟APP，结果二十分钟后还在划。想取消订阅，取
 消按钮突然就找不到了。酒店页面上写着“仅剩一间房
 ！”，多邻国那只可怜的小猫头鹰还会让你因为没练西
 班牙语而内疚。巧合吗？恐怕不是。在这场由Popcorn Club
 技术专家Omar主持的有趣讨论中，我们会聊聊“暗黑模式
 ”——也就是APP和网站用来影响我们点击、购买、继续
 、分享和回访的那些巧妙设计手法。我们会拆解像“蟑
 螂旅馆”、确认羞耻和虚假稀缺这些套路，也会探讨我
 们的数字环境到底在多大程度上被刻意设计来戳我们的
 心理按钮。 我们还会聊聊大家再熟悉不过的那个套路：
 无限滚动——这个简单的设计去掉了我们本来可能决定
 停下来的自然停顿点。为什么这些套路明明被我们看穿
 了，却依然那么有效？好的设计、聪明的营销和操控之
 间的界限到底在哪？更重要的是，一旦你看透了这些把
 戏，能不能变得更难被拿捏？现场会有真实案例、让人
 意外的心理学知识、不少笑点，以及一个会让你对自己
 每天用的APP感到有点不适的新视角。你可能再也无法直
 视“限时优惠”、哭泣的卡通吉祥物，或者微信那刷不
 完的信息流了。
