Hacker News 上怎么说

  • ……Michael Nielsen 和 Isaac Chuang 写的《Quantum Information》(超级硬核的书。老实说我觉得到目前为止它算是写得很不错的入门书,但我这点底子也就勉强能硬啃下来)。库尔特·冯内古特(Kurt Vonnegut)的《Hocus Pocus》。(我对象特别喜欢冯内古特,所以我正一本本补他的作品。目前感觉都很棒,不过虽然我自己也是美国中西部人,但有时候对那种中西部傻里傻气的幽默还是不太有耐心……

    …Quantum Information by Michael Nielsen and Isaac Chuang. (Beastly book. I actually find it to be a pretty well-written introduction so far, but I just barely have the background to plod through it.) Hocus Pocus by Kurt Vonnegut. (S.O. loves Vonnegut, so I'm working my way through his collection. Great so far, though I don't always have the patience for goofy midwestern people humor, despite being a midwesterner…

  • 多谢。我居然一直漏掉了《Hocus Pocus》。现在又有想读的好书了。(我也很喜欢《猫的摇篮》,不过那本算是冯内古特作品里写得比较疯癫跳脱的了——但这种书我们确实需要更多一点。)

    Thanks. Hocus Pocus slipped past me somehow. Now I have something to look forward to reading. (I liked Cat's Cradle too but it is also on the loopier end of Vonnegut's writing spectrum—but we need some more of that.)

  • 不客气 :) 再加上《不可儿戏》(The Importance of Being Earnest)和《银河系漫游指南》(千万别看电影版)。要不再来几本冯内古特的书?我最喜欢的是《Hocus Pocus》。

    You're welcome :) Let's throw in The Importance of Being Earnest and HHGTTG (don't watch the movie). Maybe also some Vonnegut books? My favourite is Hocus Pocus.

  • 谢谢你的评论。我也很喜欢冯内古特(我最爱的是《Hocus Pocus》),但之前一直没看《蓝胡子》。才刚翻了个头,就已经看得非常过瘾了。

    Thank you for your comment. I like Vonnegut (my favorite is Hocus Pocus) but hadn't read Bluebeard. I only started it and I'm already enjoying it significantly.

  • 除了《自动演奏钢琴》(开了两次头,两次都被别的事打断了,其实写得并不差)和《愿上帝保佑你,罗斯瓦特先生》,他的书我全都读过了。剩下的里面,《Hocus Pocus》和《囚鸟》是给我印象最淡的两本。《时震》作为写给粉丝的那种作品我觉得还凑合,但算不上神作。《蓝胡子》已经算是对冯内古特主要创作主题的一次集大成总结了,写得相当……

    I've read all of them but Player Piano (started it twice, just got distracted both times, it wasn't bad) and God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater. Of the rest, Hocus Pocus and Jailbird are the two that stuck the least. Timequake was OK as a for-the-fans kind of thing I guess, but not great. Bluebeard is already a kind of summing-up of Vonnegut's major themes and is quite…

  • “人性的另一个缺陷是:人人都想搞建设,谁都不愿意做维护。”——库尔特·冯内古特,《Hocus Pocus》

    “Another flaw in the human character is that everybody wants to build and nobody wants to do maintenance.” ― Kurt Vonnegut, Hocus Pocus
