书籍应像软件一样进行更新
大多数书籍——尤其是技术类书籍——被视为完成的作品。然而,现实是:
知识在不断变化
工具在不断发展
错误在被发现
更好的解释不断涌现
在软件领域,我们接受持续改进是正常的。而在出版领域,我们仍然将书籍固定在“v1.0”版本。
我正在通过一个名为Ulomira的平台实验这个想法:作者一次性发布书籍,并在书籍持续在线的同时不断改进内容。
我很好奇在座的各位对此有什么看法:
书籍应该是不可变的吗?
还是应该像软件一样不断演变?
我真诚地希望听到作者和读者的反馈。

Knowledge changes
Tools evolve
Errors are discovered
Better explanations emerge<p>In software, we accept continuous improvement as normal.
In publishing, we still freeze books at “v1.0”.<p>I’m experimenting with this idea through a platform called Ulomira:
authors publish once, and keep improving their book while it stays live.<p>I’m curious how others here think about this:<p>Should books be immutable?
Or should they evolve like software?<p>Genuinely interested in feedback from authors and readers.
