Just for Fun： The Story of an Accidental RevolutionaryLinus之父李纳斯·托沃兹（Linus Torvalds）自传 mobi 下载 网盘 caj lrf pdf txt 阿里云

Most 31-year olds can't boast of being the instigator of a revolution. But then again, the world's leading promoter of open source software and creator of the operating system Linux does humbly call himself an accidental revolutionary--accidental being the operative word here. Just for Fun is the quirky story of how Linus Torvalds went from being a penniless, introverted code writer in Helsinki in the early 1990s to being the unwitting (and rather less than penniless) leader of a radical shift in computer programming by the end of the decade.

OK, perhaps "story" in the traditional sense of the term is stretching it a bit. This w*** book is more like a series of e-mails, an exercise in textual communication for someone more used to code language than conversation: choppy sentences packed into short paragraphs, and sometimes just one-liners. The pace is fast, but the quippy tone can get somewhat tiring, though it definitely suits the portrayal of a computer-dominated life. And like an e-mail conversation, the tense often changes, the topics jump back and forth, and the narrators occasionally change, mostly alternating between the Linux man himself and Red Herring executive editor David Diamond, who convinced the difficult-to-pin-down Torvalds to write his story (or at least allow Diamond to poke, prod, and pull it out of him, all the while giving his own impressi*** and interpretati***). But Torvald's tale contains enough informative and entertaining tidbits--on growing up in dark, strangely silent but communication-gadget-obsessed Finland (which boasts more cell phones per capita than anywhere else), on what makes passionate code writers tick, on *** the transition from unknown computer geek to world-famous computer geek, on the convergence of technology and ideology, on his work for Transmeta and involvement (or lack thereof) with all the players worth mentioning in Silicon Valley - to keep more than just computer programmers engrossed in his story. For the latter, of course, Just for Fun will be required reading.

作者简介：

这企鹅可不是随便哪一只都行。李纳斯想让它有副爽透了的样子,就像刚刚喝下去一扎鲜啤酒,然后又体验了一次无与伦比的性***。除此之外,这只企鹅还一定要很特别才行。于是,其他的企鹅都是黑嘴巴黑脚蹼,但 Linux 的企鹅却是黄嘴巴黄脚蹼,这使它看上去好像是鸭子与企鹅的杂交品种。也许它是唐老鸭在南极之旅中与一只当地企鹅一夜倾情的结晶。

不瞒你说，那时候我能带女孩子回家的唯一原因，就是她们要我给她们辅导数学。就算是辅导数学，我带女孩子回家的次数也不多，而且还都不是我主动提出的。但我爸爸就是心存幻想，老觉得她们来我家不只是为了补习数学。（在他看来，她们都认同他的“硕鼻＝硕人”等式，所以觉得她们大概都是对我感兴趣才来的。）要是她们真的想找一个“数学男”来玩点***的，找我肯定找错人了，我都没有好好配合过她们。本来就是嘛，我就没听懂过她们说的“养大型宠物”到底还有什么意思。（Heavy Petting，意指性挑逗、***抚）我试过花很长时间照顾隔壁邻居家那只7公斤重的宠物猫，还是没弄明白这有什么大不了的。

对很多人，包括我来说，知识产权与人类的创造能力相关，与那些使我们成为人类而不是禽兽的东西相关（就是嘛！当然了，这可是好事）。在这个背景下，「知识产权」这个名称本身就是一种冒犯：这不是财产，不能像卖动产那样随随便便就拿去卖。这可是一种创造性的活动，是人类能做到的最伟大的事情。这可是艺术！艺术的艺！艺术的术！它美得如同蒙娜丽莎，不过它也是漫漫长夜编写出来的程序，是能令程序员特别骄傲的东西。它实在是太宝贵了，轻易不会拿去卖：它可是你赖以证明自己的不可或缺的东西。

而最另我時刻懸心的，莫過於中國等地的公司，因爲我擔心它們根本不會尊重通用公共授權。他們的法律制度實際上對盜版猖獗束手無策，而若要認真追究盜版業者，又委實勞民傷財。

现在这仍是我的

担心。状告某人侵权很容易,而我的担心是,有的人会即使被起诉也继续从事这种违法行为,

除非加诸某种强制执行的法律行动他们才会停止。同时我也不断地担心,在像中国这样的地方,企业并不承认 GPL 的效力,从而也不会尊重我的版权。事实上,这些地方的法律体系对侵犯版权的制止在当时并不得力(中国已经签署了一系列的国际公约,李纳斯在这里谈的是1991 年的情况――译注 ),而且,为防止违法行为的投入在这些地方被认为是不划算的。

我对理查德敬而远之，这我随口就能说出一大堆理由。我认为自己倾向于敬重那些像理查德一样有强烈道德感的人。但是他们为什么就不能把这种观念摆在心里呢？我最讨厌别人告诉我该做什么不该做什么。我尤其憎恶别人自以为有资格把他们的观点凌驾于我的个人决定之上（不过，我妻子可能就另当别论了）。

书籍介绍

This is the story of Linus Torvalds, the maverick Finnish computer genius who invented the powerful LINUX operating system. As well as being free, LINUX is more powerful and stable than anything that Microsoft can offer, thus *** Torvalds Bill Gates' number one enemy. Today, LINUX is exploding on to the market, and its creator is household. Linus Torvalds is already a folk hero within the technolgy world, often mobbed at trade shows and forever asked to give interviews by the media. But Torvalds is a most unlikely celebrity: a family man, he lives in a cramped house in Santa Clara with his wife, Tove, a Finnish karate champion, and their two daughters. He claims to this day that he invented LINUX "just for fun". --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
