为什么写博客是件很棒的事
Why it's great to write blog posts
导读
这是一篇鼓励写博客的文章,讨论写作对思考、记录和建立个人影响力的价值。评论区补充了实践层面的经验:为自己而写、如何处理“发表压力”,以及低质量内容泛滥带来的“知识幻觉”风险。对任何想开始或坚持写作的人都很有参考价值。
可以直接用的写作要点
- 01
先为自己写:记录那些你以后可能还会用到的东西,哪怕最初很粗糙,之后再逐步打磨。
- 02
把“给外人看的专业博客”和“只给自己看的日记”分开:日记没有发表压力,能让你持续练笔并积累素材。
- 03
别定过密的更新计划,按可支配的时间和精力设一个能长期维持的频率,重点是把值得写的内容写透。
- 04
写博客时要警惕“读得多就等于懂”的错觉,遇到关键主题要补足基础,避免把半懂的观点传播出去。

为自己而写、记录将来会复用的内容,是最可持续的博客策略。
我十五年前开始写博客。我的策略是:只写自己以后可能还会用到的东西。刚开始写得很简单,之后慢慢完善。对那些隔很久才做一次的事,回头查阅特别有价值。我也常收到陌生人留言说“谢谢分享”。这绝对值得,我是先为自己而写。

I started my blog 15 years ago. The tactic I take is to write things I think I might need again. I often write very simple blog posts, at first, and then refine those over time. For things that I only do once in a while they're valuable to refer back to. I also get a lot of nice comments from strangers saying things like, "thanks for posting that". It's definitely worth it. I write for myself, first.
大量阅读低质量内容会带来“知识幻觉”,写作者要警惕并补足基础。
补充一个视角:写博客不好的地方在于信息质量参差不齐,容易产生偏见和“沉默的专家大多数”效应,你读了一堆东西就以为自己懂了很多,其实存在很大的知识空白。比如机器学习领域有海量博客,但读多了会造成虚假的掌握感,连基础都没打牢。不过这不该阻止大家开始写博客,只是如何平衡这个问题还没有答案。

Just to add perspective, one reason why it’s _not_ great is the deluge of poor quality information and therefore potential for bias and “the silent majority of experts”, where you can read a bunch of stuff and feel like you know a lot, when in fact you have large knowledge gaps. Eg. There is tons of info and blogs on machine learning out there. But in my experience, reading a lot of that can lead to a false sense of knowledge, where you seem to know a lot, but actually lack even the fundamentals. Still, this shouldn’t discourage folks to start blogging! But it’s an unsolved problem how to balance these concerns.
公开博客与私人日记分工:日记降低门槛、保持练笔,还能反哺写作素材。
我也写博客,但倾向于保持在更“职业”的层面,写未来雇主或潜在客户会看到的东西。这写起来挺难,因为需要处在某种特定的心境才能写或改,有时要等很久才进入“足够职业”的状态。我发现同时写私人日记很有帮助:先回顾上次写作以来发生的事、重大事件或脑中想法。经常是我坐下来完全不知道写什么,最后却不知不觉写了一千字,而且几乎不觉得痛苦。它完全不精雕细琢,但很解压,也是练习。另外,回头读自己在人生关键时刻的想法和感受,常常会带来灵感。

I blog, though I tend to try to keep that on a more "professional" level. Stuff I'd want a future employer or potential customer to see. That can be hard to write, though, because it often requires being in a certain mood to write or edit, and sometimes it can be a while before I feel in a "professional enough" mood. I find it also helps to keep a journal, just for me. Start by recapping what's happened since the last time you wrote, or big events or thoughts on your mind. I often find that I start writing in my journal without any idea what to write about, and I end up having written a thousand words by the time I'm done, most of it without any pain at all. It's not polished in any way, but it's cathartic, and it's practice. Plus, going back and re-reading what I was thinking, feeling, and doing during critical moments of my life is often inspirational. Some things I handled far better than I remembered, others, well, let's just say I've grown more than I thought. =)
更新频率应服从时间与心力,写作本身就是理清思路的训练。
我去年创业时开始写博客。原计划每周一篇,后来改成两周一篇,再改成每月一篇,最后定为“能写就写一篇”。原因主要是时间和精力:要写出一篇值得发表的文章,不可能像我期望的那么频繁;而且值得写的文章很费脑力,要定选题、明确内容,最后再写出来。再加上我写的就是自己的工作,也不想每分每秒都在想工作。话虽如此,写博客是很好的锻炼,能练写作、练把问题想清楚、练把问题讲明白。如果为数不多的读者里有人能带走点有用的东西,那就更好了。

I started writing blog posts when I started my comapny last year. The plan was to wrie one per week, then one every two weeks, then one per months. I settled for one everytime I manage to. Reasons are mostly time and capacity. Time wise, there are so much things to do that writting a blog post worth publishing is not feasible as often as I wished. Also, worthwhile posts take mental effort. Coming up with a topic, defining the exact content, and finally writting it. Also, my blog posts are about my work. So I don't want to spend every minute thinking about work. That being said, it is a great excersice, in writting, in thinking problems through and in explaining them. And if some readers, of the few I have, take somehing usefaull away from it, even better!
