'Carthago Delenda Est:' Was Mark Zuckerberg's Cryptic Birthday Tee A Meta Message Or A Party Joke?
Mark Zuckerberg's 40th birthday party outfit has sparked a wave of speculation. The Meta Platforms, Inc. CEO's attire, particularly a T-shirt with a Latin phrase, has led to a flurry of theories about its significance.
馬克·扎克伯格的40歲生日派對服裝引發了一波猜測。Meta Platforms, Inc. 首席執行官的着裝，特別是帶有拉丁語短語的T恤，引發了一系列關於其重要性的理論。
What Happened: Zuckerberg's birthday party was organized by his wife, Priscilla Chan, and featured miniature replicas of significant places in his life.
發生了什麼：扎克伯格的生日聚會是由他的妻子陳慧嫺組織的，以他生命中重要地點的微型複製品爲特色。
However, it was Zuckerberg's outfit that caught the attention of many. In particular, his T-shirt, which bore the Latin phrase "Carthago delenda est" (Carthage must be destroyed), raised eyebrows.
但是，正是扎克伯格的服裝引起了許多人的注意。特別是，他的印有拉丁語短語 “Carthago delenda est”（迦太基必須被摧毀）的T恤引起了人們的關注。
The phrase traces its origins to debates in the Roman Senate preceding the Third Punic War (149–146 BC) between Rome and Carthage. Cato the Elder, a prominent politician of the Roman Republic, purportedly concluded all his speeches with this phrase, advocating for the war.
這句話起源於羅馬和迦太基之間的第三次布匿戰爭（公元前149-146年）之前的羅馬參議院辯論。據稱，羅馬共和國的著名政治家卡託·埃爾德在所有演講的結尾都用這句話來結束他的所有演講，主張戰爭。
It is also linked to Zuckerberg's interest in Roman history, with his daughters being named after Roman emperors, reported Business Insider on Wednesday.
據《商業內幕》週三報道，這也與扎克伯格對羅馬歷史的興趣有關，他的女兒以羅馬皇帝的名字命名。

There are several theories about the T-shirt. It could be a designer shirt, a gift from someone at the party, or a nod to a significant phase in Facebook's history. The shirt's fit and the fold lines suggest it was worn for the first time at the party.
關於這件T恤有幾種理論。它可能是一件名牌襯衫，可能是派對上某人的禮物，或者是對Facebook歷史重要階段的致敬。這件襯衫的版型和摺疊線條表明它是在派對上首次穿的。
Another point of interest was Zuckerberg's gold chain, which was absent in some photos. The chain necklace has become somewhat of an internet sensation following the widespread circulation of digitally manipulated images depicting Zuckerberg wearing a chain and sporting a beard.
另一個有趣的地方是扎克伯格的金鍊，一些照片中沒有這條金鍊。在描繪扎克伯格戴着鏈子和留着鬍鬚的數字處理圖像廣泛流傳之後，這條鏈式項鍊在互聯網上引起了轟動。
Chan's Instagram caption hinted that the party was also a roast, with attendees, including Bill Gates and Joel Kaplan, dressing up in a Zuckerberg costume. This led to the theory that Zuckerberg's outfit was gifted to him as a joke during the party.
陳在Instagram上的標題暗示這場派對也是一場盛宴，包括比爾·蓋茨和喬爾·卡普蘭在內的與會者穿着扎克伯格服裝。這導致了這樣的理論，即扎克伯格的服裝是在聚會期間作爲笑話送給他的。
Why It Matters: Since the inception of Facebook in 2004 at Harvard University, Zuckerberg has steered Meta from its initial concentration solely on a single social network to broadening its scope to include messaging and cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence.
爲何重要：自 Facebook 於 2004 年在哈佛大學創立以來，扎克伯格一直引導 Meta 從最初僅專注於單一社交網絡轉向擴大其範圍，將消息傳遞和人工智能等尖端技術包括在內。
He has experienced a notable evolution, transitioning from a reserved founder to an individual with diverse interests, ranging from managing cattle on his $100 million Hawaii ranch to engaging in mixed martial arts or MMA training.
他經歷了顯著的演變，從一個內向的創始人轉變爲一個有着不同興趣的人，從在他耗資1億美元的夏威夷牧場管理牛群到從事混合武術或綜合格鬥訓練。
At the time of writing, Zuckerberg's total net worth was $171 billion, making him the fourth person on the Bloomberg Billionaire Index.
在撰寫本文時，扎克伯格的總淨資產爲1710億美元，使他成爲彭博億萬富翁指數的第四人。
