## 为什么没有更多的人使用 Linux？

][1]
几周前，我[看到一条推文][2]问道："如果 Linux 这么好，为什么没有更多的人使用它？"这是一个合理的问题！直觉上听起来很有道理，直到你稍加思考。Linux 甚至是免费的，如果它真的更好，是什么阻止了它的大规模采用呢？我的回答是：

> 如果垃圾食品这么不健康，为什么这么多人还在吃？_

## Why don't more people use Linux?
世界上充满了免费的自我提升机会，但大多数时候都被大多数人忽视。说得直白一点，在一个充满廉价、空虚热量的世界里，保持肥胖和无知比保持健康和见多识广要容易得多。很难抵制最小努力的诱惑。

A couple of weeks ago, I [saw a tweet][2] asking: "If Linux is so good, why aren't more people using it?" And it's a fair question! It intuitively rings true until you give it a moment's consideration. Linux is even free, so what's stopping mass adoption, if it's actually better? My response:

而 Linux 不是最小努力。它是一个比微软和苹果的商业产品要求更多的操作系统。因此，它成为了更好地理解计算机的道场。就像一个老师不断要求你自己解决问题以学习和提升。

> _If exercising is so healthy, why don't more people do it?
> If reading is so educational, why don't more people do it?
> If junk food is so bad for you, why do so many people eat it?_
我完全理解为什么大多数计算机用户对智力锻炼不感兴趣，因为他们只想浏览网页或使用应用程序。他们并不想成为计算机基础知识的黑带高手。


The world is full of free invitations to self-improvement that are ignored by most people most of the time. Putting it crudely, it's easier to be fat and ignorant in a world of cheap, empty calories than it is to be fit and informed. It's hard to resist the temptation of minimal effort.

但程序员不同。或者说应该不同。他们就像消防员。健康不是消防的目的，而是先决条件。当你有体力和力量能把人从燃烧的建筑物里扛在肩上时，你会是一个更好的消防员。所以大多数消防员都努力保持健康以服务于这个使命。

And Linux isn't minimal effort. It's an operating system that demands more of you than does the commercial offerings from Microsoft and Apple. Thus, it serves as a dojo for understanding computers better. With a sensei who keeps demanding you figure problems out on your own in order to learn and level up.
这就是为什么我希望看到更多的开发者[重新审视 Linux][3]。这样他们就能在互联网的基本招式上发展出更好的熟练度。这样他们就不会在没有云的掩护下害怕将计算机连接到互联网。


Now I totally understand why most computer users aren't interested in an intellectual workout when all they want to do is browse the web or use an app. They're not looking to become a black belt in computing fundamentals.
此外，如果你能够弄清楚如何为 JavaScript 设置现代构建管道，甚至正确配置 AWS 的 IAM，你就已经具备了 Linux 之旅所需的所有耐力。考虑再试一次吧。不是因为它很容易，而是因为它值得。


But programmers are different. Or ought to be different. They're like firefighters. Fitness isn't the purpose of firefighting, but a prerequisite. You're a better firefighter when you have the stamina and strength to carry people out of a burning building on your shoulders than if you do not. So most firefighters work to be fit in order to serve that mission.
关于 David Heinemeier Hansson


That's why I'd love to see more developers [take another look at Linux][3]. Such that they may develop better proficiency in the basic katas of the internet. Such that they aren't scared to connect a computer to the internet without the cover of a cloud.
作为[37signals][6]的共同所有者和 CTO，为弱势群体打造了[Basecamp][4]和[HEY][5]。创建了[Ruby on Rails][7]。著有[REWORK][8]、[工作不必疯狂][9]和[远程工作][10]。作为[赛车手][11]在勒芒赢得胜利。作为[反垄断倡导者][12]与大型科技垄断企业作斗争。投资[丹麦创业公司][13]。


Besides, if you're able to figure out how to setup a modern build pipeline for JavaScript or even correctly configure IAM for AWS, you already have all the stamina you need for the Linux journey. Think about giving it another try. Not because it is easy, but because it is worth it.
