商品描述

Our civilization runs on software. Yet the art of creating it continues to be a dark mystery, even to the experts. To find out why it’s so hard to bend computers to our will, Scott Rosenberg spent three years following a team of maverick software developers—led by Lotus 1-2-3 creator Mitch Kapor—designing a novel personal information manager meant to challenge market leader Microsoft Outlook. Their story takes us through a maze of abrupt
dead ends and exhilarating breakthroughs as they wrestle not only with the abstraction of code, but with the unpredictability of human behavior— especially their own.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

我們的文明依賴於軟體。然而,創造軟體的藝術對於專家來說仍然是一個黑暗的謎團。為了找出為什麼如此難以使電腦服從我們的意志,Scott Rosenberg 花了三年時間跟隨一群特立獨行的軟體開發者——由 Lotus 1-2-3 的創造者 Mitch Kapor 領導——設計一款新穎的個人資訊管理器,旨在挑戰市場領導者 Microsoft Outlook。他們的故事帶我們穿越一個充滿突如其來的死胡同和令人振奮的突破的迷宮,因為他們不僅要與程式碼的抽象性作鬥爭,還要面對人類行為的不可預測性——尤其是他們自己的行為。
