问HN：在现实生活中，我们为一切付费，为什么软件就不可以呢？
似乎我和许多人都养成了一个坏习惯，那就是把软件免费赠送出去。而在现实生活中，我们对任何有价值的东西都是收费的。我今天遇到了一位木匠，你无法想象他会把手工制作的家具免费赠送出去。这是他的职业。那么，为什么在软件领域我们却会免费提供这么多东西呢？比如开源软件和一些托管服务？
我写了很多开源软件，但现在我觉得我需要真正利用我的技能去销售一些东西，去销售我所构建的产品。有没有人有这样的感觉？

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'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?
