觉得作者一直在传播一个观点就是作为程序员应该如何包装自己,如果通过提升自己的社交能力去提升自己的身价。在IT工作了近四年以后发现其实大多数程序员之所以选择做程序员就只是想要安安静静地写代码,不想去社交,不想去包装自己,没有变成富豪的梦想。

Maybe better for a younger person. Kinda shallow and too many words for only a few ideas. Not a bad book but 3.5stars for me. 作者的买房理财方法,上次bubble破的时候也有因此搞的杀人自杀的。看看就好。

一本程序员的生活事业指南,连爱情都讲了,把我看乐了。就算是生活经验非常丰富以后当初阅读材料也不错,都是聊天可以用到的英语。但写得太啰嗦太僵硬,何必把soft写得这么hard。读完觉得作者还是个「典型的」技术人,完全没有艺术相关的东西。既然给人「指北」人生,却完全不讨论心智构建,我是没法买单的(^_^*)

纪念今天同时完成了两本书(另一本是东方风暴),本书总的来说第一章不错,第五章可读,时而提醒一下自己,还是挺有效果的。归根结底一个词:自省。

三星半吧,还行。博客合集,理财和健康那部分有点用。大部分是车轱辘话来回说。

收益最大的部分:「职业」「学习」;值得职场fresh参考。其余收获仍需实践。P.S.受人推荐来读这本书,推荐者的博文里大体思想和本书后半部分类似,所以「理财」「健身」部分并未深度。
