[名家名著] 37 Software Mistakes and Tradeoffs中文版：掌握軟體開發中的錯誤、取捨與關鍵決策 Software Mistakes and Tradeoffs: How to make good programming decisions ❝Teddy長期研究Pattern Language，有一個很深的體會：每一個設計決策，都只是「局部的回應」。真正困難的，是把這些局部組織成一個和諧的整體。 AI可以提供大量「局部解法」，但整合這些解法需要的，是對「這個團隊、這個市場、這個時間點」的情境理解。這種情境沒辦法完全寫成規格書，因為它牽涉到人的能力邊界、組織的演進節奏、技術債的承受極限。這些東西每個專案都不一樣，而且會隨時間改變。這不是AI的context window再怎麼變大就能解決的問題。 要看見整體，不能只盯著零件。AI幫你把門檻拉低之後，真正稀缺的能力，是在眾多可能性之中，做出有脈絡、能長期承擔的選擇。不是盲目的節制，而是清楚知道代價之後，有意識地決定扛下哪些、放掉哪些。 如果鄉民們希望自己在AI時代，不只是會下提示詞的PM，而是能為系統負責的架構師，那麼這本書值得細細品味。❞ ────「搞笑談軟工」板主Teddy Chen　專文推薦 ❝在軟體工程的實務現場，幾乎沒有哪一個決策是「免費」的。每一次選擇某種架構、某種設計模式、某種API風格，或某種錯誤處理策略，實際上都意味著放棄其他可能性。這些放棄，往往不會在當下立即顯現代價，而是潛伏在未來的維護成本、效能瓶頸、擴充困難、組織協作摩擦與技術債之中。 《Software Mistakes and Tradeoffs中文版》所關注的，正是這些在實際上線系統（production systems）中反覆出現的取捨問題。本書並不試圖建立一套抽象理論，而是從具體情境出發：在特定背景、限制與壓力之下，團隊如何做出選擇？有哪些替代方案？當時忽略了什麼？哪些後果在事後才浮現？哪些判斷其實是合理的，只是代價延後到未來？ 這樣的視角，使本書成為一本極具實務厚度的工程決策紀錄。❞ ────博碩文化資深編輯與翻譯　盧國鳳 ❝真希望我能在職涯更早期就讀到這本書。書中濃縮了許多從實務中得來的寶貴經驗。❞ ────Dave Corun，Avanade ❝清楚而精準地總結了多年軟體工程實務的精華，新手與老手都值

Fox--the beloved and popular trickster character featured in the Geisel Award-winning books Fox Has a Problem, Fox at Night, and Fox the Tiger--is on the move! But Fox knows that life is about the journey, not the destination, and if his untraditional transportation methods get him in a bit of trouble, he can always try again tomorrow.

鑑於近年研究指出女性與男性犯罪人存在犯罪之原因、型態與路徑之迥異，以及生理及心理、行為與創傷之不同，刑事司法體系亦無法針對女性之權益與特殊需求適切挹注資源與專業處遇，國際專家學者Bloom、Owen與Covington（2003）等因此倡議性別回應矯正策略與服務（Gender-Responsive Strategy/Service for Female of Fenders），以關注女性在刑事司法體系中的特殊需求、脆弱性和權益。聯合國復於2010年通過曼谷規則，特別強調了基於數據和證據的研究、性別平等與婦女權利相關的培訓和能力建設。後續聯合國於2012年通過刑事司法體系中法律援助取得途徑的原則與準則（Principles and Guidelines on Access to Legal Aid in Criminal Justice Systems）及2014年通過女性與監禁手冊（Handbook on Women and Imprisonment），以強化女性收容人之各項權益。作者長期關注國際犯罪矯治趨勢與發展，已執行多年相關受刑人犯罪行為與處遇需求之性別差異研究計畫與國際期刊發表，本書的撰寫，希冀提升女性受刑人及出監後之矯治處遇服務品質，以減少其再犯，並供犯罪矯正機構同仁及刑事司法與犯罪防治相關機構人員、博碩研究生及致力於改善女性受刑人權益之人士參考。

隨想集續 一些踩踏在虛空中的足跡 願我們心無波瀾，澄澈如天空。願我們彼此護慰，以度過這暫時的黑暗。 在出版了《隨想集》（2013-2022 年）三年之後，現在又集結了別冊《隨想集續》（2023-2025 年），以與心靈相契的朋友在靈魂的暗夜中互通款曲。這三年中，時代丕變！我們被催逼著隨著時代的鼓聲急速前行！將去往何方？不可確知，無法掌控。回顧身後？我們所熟悉的世界已一去不返了。這不僅是當代、也是古今共通的情境。思及此，我又要吟誦英國詩人馬修‧阿諾德（Matthew Arnold, 1822-1888）的詩句了，當時他與新婚妻子漫步在英國多佛海邊，遙見對岸法國的熠熠燈火：（這是最後的一段）Ah, love, let us be trueTo one another! For the world, which seemsTo lie before us like a land of dreams,So various, so beautiful, so new,Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,Nor certitude, no peace, nor help for pain;And we are here as on a darkling plainSwept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,Where ignorant armies clash by night.馬修‧阿諾德所處的十九世紀，是一個變動劇烈的時代，工業革命的浪潮如海嘯般湧來，作為心靈與生活支柱的宗教信仰也受到人們的質疑，他身處其中，內心感到極度的惶惑不安 ―如此紛繁，如此美麗，如此新穎，其實沒有歡樂，沒有愛，沒有光，沒有明確，沒有和平，沒有對痛苦的救贖；詩人是先知吧？德國詩人海涅（Heinrich Heine, 1797-1856）早已警告世人：德意志的民族主義將為人類帶來大禍，果然。馬修‧阿諾德的惶惑不安也非無病呻吟，他謝世之後不到三十年，爆發了第一次世界大戰，他詩中描述的爭戰相殘不幸成真。現在，二十一世紀在驚濤駭浪中走過了四分之一，網路、人工智能、商業與消費主義……撒下漫天巨網，傳統價值與既有體制正在崩壞瓦解，我們心中的惶惑不安較諸十九世紀的先賢們更為猛烈。我的讀者朋友們―願我們心無波

投資大師們的指定教科書巴菲特說：「別人貪婪時我恐懼，別人恐懼時我貪婪。」索羅斯說：「市場總是錯誤的。」華爾街教父 班傑明‧葛拉漢：「不做群羊，一要正確思考，二要獨立思考。」在價格處於高位時對利多消息保持懷疑，在價格處於低位時對利空消息保持懷疑。本書的五大原則總結：1. Your main purpose must be to keep the mind clear and well balanced. Hence, do not act hastily on apparently sensational information; do not trade so heavily as to become anxious; and do not permit yourself to be influenced by your position in the market.1.你必須目標明確，頭腦冷靜，不能因一些道聽塗說的消息而莽撞行事；不要過度交易讓自己變得焦慮；更不能盲目地固執己見。2. Act on your own judgement, or else act absolutely and entirely on the judgement of another regardless of your own opinion."To many cooks spoil the broth."2.要麼依照自己的判斷行動，要麼無視自己的看法、絕對徹底地按別人的判斷行動。「人多手雜反而壞事。」3. When in doubt, keep out of the market. Delays cost less than losses.3.當心存疑慮、游移不定時，不要進行交易，延誤成本小於虧損。4. Endeavor to catch the trend of sentiment. Even if you should be temporarily against fundamental conditions, it is nevertheless unprofitable to oppose it.4.努力培養對走勢的敏感度，即使目前你還不能把握它，但這也絕不會是作無用功。5. The greatest fault of ninety-nine percent out of
