摘要
弗里德里希·基特勒(Friedrich Kittler)在他的文章《没有软件》(There is no software)中对软件的分析，把程序员从计算机的领域中抽离出来，过于专注于机器及其具体的物质存在。因此，他假定计算机的物质作用，以电压的形式，是计算机存在的基本场所。本文试图在将代码视为文本的解读(这种解读混淆了代码的过程性)和将机器作为真正编程行为的基本仲裁者的过于技术性的编程描述之间穿针引线。通过重申程序员的存在和探索各种类型的编码，本文提供了对软件存在的另一种描述，这种描述不仅强调在机器上执行代码，而且强调程序员作为代码的读者和作者的角色。
Friedrich Kittler’s analysis of software in his essay “There is no Software” evacuates the programmer from the realm of the computer by focusing too intently on the machine and its specific, material existence. As a result, he posits the material action of computers, in the form of voltages, as the essential site of the being of computers. This paper attempts to thread the needle between a reading of code-as-text that obfuscates the procedural nature of code, and an overly technical description of programming that reinstates the machine as the essential arbiter of authentic acts of programming. By reasserting the presence of the programmer and exploring the variety of types of coding, this essay offers an alternate description of the being of software, one which emphasizes not just the execution of code on the machine, but also the programmer’s role as reader and writer of code.
