很久以前想過寫書，終於開始了。從去年四月開始到現在，雖然有很多時間還是放在修改系統上，但也花了不少時間寫這套書的文章。經過三次重寫，總算完成第一冊。
寫書似乎比寫軟件更難。運用腦力的方式差不多，但必須寫得非常清楚，這樣別人才看得明白。幸好現時有不少寫作方面的工具，文字編輯器也有效對功能，比以前容易得多了。
圖書的封面設計也是花時間的事情，不過有點像選擇軟件的背景或圖示，以後還可以更改。其實寫書與寫軟件也很相似，因為兩者都是腦力勞動，都希望自己的作品對其他人有用。
對軟件和書都有一個要求，就是要有新意。如果不能從別人的基礎上發展出一些新的東西，就覺得沒必要繼續了。幸好在這兩種寫作中都能發現新事物。寫程式發現了分散式雲端綱絡，寫文章發現生命的客觀意義。這些屬於早期發現，但在後來的作品中有機會表達出來。
這是第一次寫書。雖然有很多新鮮感，但始終不及寫軟件有趣，因為寫書比較單調。但寫書也可以有更高的目標，那是希望自己的想法不僅可以影響電腦系統，更可以影響人這個更複雜的系統。因為無論創作甚麼東西，最終都是為人而做的。
下來還有三冊需要繼續寫，在看甚麼時候能夠完成。寫作其實對頭腦是很好的鍛鍊，也是提高意識的最基本方法。把自己的想法寫出來，然後切實執行，最終驗證自己的想法是否正確，形成正確的意識。這是最佳的健腦方式。當然健康的飲食也非常重要，但正確的意識是因，健康是果。
這些書和我寫的軟件一樣，全部版權都與公司共同擁有。一個人的作品，如果能夠與所屬的集體共享，那麼他的成果就會被放大，他所獲得的喜悅也會被放大。對創作者來說，這種共享非常值得。而且創作者的壽命未必能比一個集體的壽命長。因此，當他的作品也屬於集體，就有機會傳播得更為長久和廣泛。

First time writing a book
I thought about writing a book a long time ago and finally started. From April last year to now, although a lot of time has been spent on modifying the system, I have also spent a lot of time writing articles for this set of books. After three rewrites, the first volume was finally completed.
Writing a book seems harder than writing software. The method of using our brain power is similar, but we must write it very clearly so that others can understand it. Fortunately, there are many tools for writing now, and text editors also have effective functions, making it much easier than before.
Book cover design is also something that takes time, but it’s a bit like choosing a background or icon for software, and we can change it later. In fact, writing books is very similar to writing software, because both are mental efforts, and both hope that their works will be useful to others.
There is a requirement for both software and books, that is, they must be innovative. If I can't develop something new based on other people's work, I feel there is no need to continue. Fortunately I can discover new things in both types of writing. Writing programs discovered the independent cloud on the Internet, and writing articles discovered the true meaning of life. These were early discoveries, but had occasion to be expressed in later works.
This is my first time writing a book. Although there is a lot of freshness, it is still not as fun as writing software because writing a book is relatively monotonous. But writing a book can also have a higher goal, which is to hope that my ideas can not only affect the computer system, but also the more complex system of people. Because no matter what I create, it is ultimately made for people.
There are still three volumes that need to be written, and I am waiting to see when they can be completed. Writing is actually a good exercise for the mind, and it is also the most basic way to improve consciousness. Write down our ideas, and then implement them effectively to finally verify whether our ideas are correct and form a correct consciousness. This is the best way to strengthen our brain. Of course, a healthy diet is also very important, but correct consciousness is the cause and health is the effect.
All copyrights for these books, like the software I write, are jointly owned by me and the company. If a person's work can be shared with the collective to which it belongs, then his achievements will be magnified, and so will the joy he obtains. For creators, this kind of sharing is well worth it. And the lifespan of the creator may not be longer than that of the collective. Therefore, when his works also belong to a collective, they have the opportunity to spread more permanently and widely.
