Ask HN: 现实世界里我们为所有东西付费,软件为什么不行?

9作者: asim6 个月前
看来,我和许多人一样,都养成了一个坏习惯,那就是免费提供软件。而在现实世界中,我们对任何有价值的东西都会收费。我今天遇到了一位木匠。你无法想象他会免费赠送手工制作的家具。这是他的职业。那么,为什么在软件领域,我们却要免费提供这么多东西呢?比如开源软件,甚至是托管服务? 我写过很多开源软件,但现在感觉我需要真正运用我的技能去销售一些东西,销售我构建的东西。有没有人也有这种感觉?

It seems like I and many others have develop a bad habit of giving software away for free. Whereas in the real world we charge for anything of value. I met a carpenter today. You could not imagine giving away hand crafted furniture for free. It&#x27;s his trade. So why is it in software we give so much away for free? Like open source and even hosted services?<p>I have written a lot of open source but feel like now I need to really use my skill to sell something, to sell the things I build. Does anyone get that feeling?
