在 Hacker News 阅读原文…rld literacy is the number one cause you should support, but that's what I believe. Figure out the causes that matter to you, research those, then maybe you'll find some angle of attack. Incidentally, a guy who did this wrote a book "Leaving Microsoft to Change the World". He was a marketing guy, but he does run his charity with a lot of the style of a tech company. Maybe that book will give you ideas. http://www.leavingmicrosoftbook.com/
在 Hacker News 阅读原文We also recently found a great book on this topic: Leaving Microsoft to Change the World ( http://www.leavingmicrosoftbook.com/ ) by John Wood founder of Room to Read (roomtoread.org). They require locals to build libraries and schools and raise the material and labor. Then they pay for scholarships and equipment and supplies. It's a true partnership.
在 Hacker News 阅读原文Same, and with special emphasis on The Diamond Age. Also Douglas Adams, Vernor Vinge, Richard K. Morgan, and all kinds of other stuff. I like to read almost as much as I like to program. Best nonfiction I have read in a while: "Leaving Microsoft To Change The World" by John Wood. A Microsoft VP leaves to pursue his dream of changing the world with books, and ends up founding Room to Read ( http://www.roomtoread.org/ .) Highly recommended.
