You don't need to change too much to live a wonderful life. This is the psychological comfort Paul gives us. At the same time, he also uses his success in a secular sense to clearly tell us the feasibility of this matter in the real world. This is one of the important insights we can get from reading this book. From a content perspective, in this book full of insights, Paul uses the eyes of a hacker and the heart of a painter to reveal why the world is what it is today and predict its future. In Paul's eyes, hackers are creators and children of the Internet. They have a restless heart. Although they are often regarded as nerds, they use their own efforts to lay the foundation for a new world of the Internet. There is no doubt that the world we live in has been and will continue to be profoundly changed by hackers. Therefore, by understanding hackers, we will also understand the world better. In this book, the author talks to us about three aspects related to hackers: first, how hackers grow and view the world; second, how hackers work and influence the world; third, hackers' tools and working methods. In fact, in all 15 articles, Paul discusses content that goes far beyond what hackers are concerned about, and uses a humorous touch to show his thinking on the major issues that everyone cares about and is affected by in the broadest possible way. Whether it is creating wealth, how to design good products, or how to live consistently in a world full of dissent. It can be said that no matter what stage of life we ​​are in, we will get inspiration from reading this book.
