##黑客与画家

《黑客与画家》,Paul Graham所著,由阮一峰翻译。高质量的原著加上优雅的中译,好评如潮的一本书。之前我在《三十而立,小心忽悠》中的评价如下:

作者试图回答的问题:如何好奇地探索这个世界,做喜欢的事情,并阳光地获取财富?

作者回答得怎么样:非常棒

评价:创业的书,

 或讲究细节,比如如何撰写商务计划书;
 或摆资历,比如我的成功如何复制;
 或讲大道理,用一个术语串起整本书,你不服还不行,比如长尾比如蓝海比如紫牛;
 或写小说,比如如何从小秘到跨国公司CEO;或吹牛,比如全**最穷小伙子如何发财。

有没有一本,心平气和,不讲细节不摆资历不讲大道理不写小说不吹牛的创业书呢?

有,这就是Paul Graham的文集——《黑客与画家》。

从第一章开始,就会心一笑,找到了自己的影子。不过试图马上寻找到发财之道的读者,可能会失望了。

与其说作者是在谈编程,谈创业,谈商业模式,还不如说作者在回答:如何好奇地探索这个世界,并通过做自己喜欢的事情,阳光地获取财富?

关于Paul Graham的这本书,再多文字的摘用也是一种侮辱。实在没时间的读者,就功利地选择第六章《如何创造财富》与第九章《设计者的品味》入手吧。
