My Life as Open Source

Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

晚上和陳氏伉儷食飯,市面上的How-to 書吹水居多,我們想出如果你能寫出以下書便發大達!

第一本書是因為Tiney 在上公開大學的課,原來旁聽是沒有人或措施察覺得出,你大可以旁聽至「畢業」,只是沒有畢業證書,所以只要能想出免費旁聽畢業之餘還可以獲頒畢業證書,並且實驗成功,著書教人,嘩!印書如印錢呀。

1. How to graduate from university without paying tutorial fee and still get certificate?

2. How to get the most advantage from your supplier and still feel good afterwards?

3. How to delay payment to your supplier and still get service?

第二本是第三本的續集,封面可用上Brought to you by NY Times bestselling author: How to delay payment to your supplier and still get service?

這兩本書的內容絕對是我親眼目睹的事情,有個客長年不找數,但是公司仍然提供服務,job 照做,數照拖。但這個客人數口之精,包括如何買經濟客位但獲得商務客位服務,如何在Starbucks 以一杯咖啡價數飲到兩杯?如何在威迫利誘中國A 貨商人以二百元買到三至四隻A 貨名錶等等,實在令人咋舌,最重要是他從來覺得迫人減價是天經地義,又即是feel good afterwards,唉!這點子真的很難辦到。

當然,我們也是吹水居多,不過,有一件真人真事就是How to Work in Apple Without Getting Paid and Still Succeed in Business。

說起來這事真是可歌可泣,革命性的繪圖軟體Graphing Calculator 原來是上述的情況下面世。詳情可看當事人Ron Avitzur 的回顧,或Wired 的報導

  5. Anti-intellectualism

    由於之前的一場無謂Flamewar,令我說起一個英文字,叫作Academia。
    Academia我想中文大約應譯為「學術界」。但學術界在中文的意思太濫,這個英文字本身只包含大學教育和研究。
    大學教育在…
