……话题。大概率已经有人做过了。总之这是我的书单：- 兰迪·科米萨的《僧侣与谜题》（你绝对得读读这本，它能摆正你的视角。兰迪是个天才）- 《Paypal 战争》- 杰西卡·利文斯顿的《创业者》
…topic. Most likely it's been done already. Anyway, here's my list: - Monk and the Riddle- Randy Komisar (You HAVE to read this, it puts it in the right perspective. Randy is a genius) - Paypal Wars - Founders at Work- Jessica Livingston
……在类似这样的帖子里，HN 读者们推荐过好多次《哥德尔、艾舍尔、巴赫：集异璧之大成》。罗伯特·波西格的《禅与摩托车维修艺术》。斯图尔特·布兰德的《建筑学到了什么》。杰西卡·利文斯顿的《创业者》。马尔科姆·格拉德威尔的《引爆点》。列维特和都伯纳的《魔鬼经济学》。彼得·伯恩斯坦的《与天为敌》。孙子的《孙子兵法》。罗伯特·格林的《战争的 33 个策略》……
…An Eternal Golden Braid has been recommended by multiple HN readers in most threads like this. Robert Pirsig's book Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. How Buildings Learn by Stewart Brand. Founders at Work by Jessica Livingston. Tipping Point by Malcom Gladwell. Freakonomics, by Levitt and Dubner. Against the Gods by Peter Bernstein. The art of war by Sun Tzu.

……- 盖伊·川崎；《控制软件项目》- 汤姆·德马科；《别想在研讨会上教会孩子骑自行车》- 戴维·桑德勒；《卡耐基》- 彼得·克拉斯；《快步前行》- 布拉德·菲尔德和戴维·科恩；《创业者》- 杰西卡·利文斯顿。但如果非要我只选一本：《如何致富》- 菲利克斯·丹尼斯，因为它让我敢于做梦，读起来太有意思了，还因为那句话：“凡是能飞的、能漂的、能交配的……
…- Guy Kawasaki Controlling Software Projects - Tom DeMarco You Can't Teach a Kid to Ride a Bike at a Seminar - David Sandler Carnegie - Peter Krass Do More Faster - Brad Feld and David Cohen Founders at Work - Jessica Livingston But if I had to pick only one: How to Get Rich - Felix Dennis because it got me to dreaming, it's so much fun to read, and for the line, "If it flies, floats or fornicates,…
……我建议 Salesforce 的律师们好好研究一下它。如果不是的话，想找 prior art 可能会有点困难。如今人们对基于订阅的软件分发已经司空见惯了。但去翻翻《创业者》，读读对阿瑟·范霍夫关于 Marimba 的采访吧，Marimba 成立于 1996 年（在该专利提交之后），做的就是带自动更新的订阅制软件业务。他谈到了……
…and I'd suggest that Salesforce's lawyers look carefully at it. If it is not, then finding prior art may be a challenge. People today are used to subscription-based software distribution. But pick up Founders at Work and read the interview with Arthur van Hoff about Marimba, which was founded in 1996 (after the patent was filed) and was in the business of subscription-based software with automatic updates. He talks…
《创业者》这本她采访创业者的书，写得惊艳至极。难怪她是 YC 的核心人物。
Founders at Work, her book of founder interviews, is stunningly good. I'm not surprised she's key to YC.
……代码”。自动化会把你从最前线的战壕里拉出来，而要从根本上了解自己的代码，你偏偏就得待在战壕里。我手上沾的泥越多，对代码的理解就越深。（想进一步阅读的话，参考杰西卡·利文斯顿《创业者》的第 3 章。沃兹（我的偶像）完全不靠任何辅助工具，彻底钻进各种细节里，从而做到了无人能及的透彻理解。）8. 收集一些统计数据。先把代码敲出来，跑通点东西……
…Code". Automation takes you out of the very trenches you have to be in to get to know your code in the first place. The dirtier I get, the better I know my code. (For further reading, Chapter 3 of Founders at Work by Jessica Livingston. Woz (my hero) totally immersed himself in his details without crutches in order to know them as well as anyone ever has.) 8.
