Turn: Why are we studying technology?

After five years of hard work and study, I suddenly felt confused from 1 to 2 to 3 recently: Why did we study technology? How far can the technology work? 1-2-3 wrote some of your thoughts and looked forward to your wonderful message ....

Programmers are really a special group. During the day, we made great efforts to complete the project. At night, there was only one solitary lamp that accompanied us to immerse ourselves in the mysterious design ideas and the algorithms that made us nervous. What is the purpose of this kind of miserable life? Is there no choice? Is there an internal motivation? What is our effort?

For money?

I want to have money. If you have money, you can buy an iPhone. It takes a lot of money to afford a house. Not only are these tangible things supported by our social value and our psychological balance. Money makes us anxious, jealous, and crazy, but it never seems to satisfy us. Programmers are lucky. We can expect our efforts to quickly turn to real salary growth. However, if you study technology only to make money, you will soon be depressed, because the salary growth and effort will never be proportional-think about how much I earn more than selling pickles in front of my house. It can be said that every programmer is expecting to get more out of salary.

Right?

Which of the following is my willingness to become an ordinary employee in my life? Who don't want to get promoted? Being an official not only means higher salaries, but also the feeling of having a superior. When you become an official, you can lead a larger team to do more important work and gain a greater sense of accomplishment. Programmers are undoubtedly lucky in this regard. "editing and youzeshi" is a common phenomenon in China. Many people can sit on PL or even PM in less than 30 days. However, if the technology is only good, it is no problem to be a small leader. To be a big leader, you need more management capabilities and political awareness. Also, transferring management means losing the painstaking research on the technology for many years, how can this problem be avoided.

Name?

If one day or night is called by "Heroes" or "cool", it must be an uncommon feeling of reverence, I think. Maybe someone will remember you many years later and talk about it: "It was the one-2-3 essay of the year that laid the theoretical foundation for changing the human brain into a USB flash drive .... "Well, it's YY here.

To gain respect?

No one is willing to be a newbie. Especially for technical work, when others talk about the XX method and the XX framework happily, but they are confused, they will be quite uncomfortable. But will others really respect us because of our good technology? Or will others respect us because we have money? Maybe. Superb technology or hundreds of millions of people can envy and envy people and feel an invisible pressure, but I really don't know whether these can be converted into respect.

To complete the work

If you are always faced with jobs that are more difficult and constantly challenging your capabilities, I believe there will be no time to think about this boring problem. Most of our learning motivation comes from work. However, work is not all about life. Work has taken up 8 or even 12 hours of the day. Why did we abandon our entertainment time and even think about technical issues when we are eating or sleeping?

For free

In the past, there was a saying that "learning mathematics and physics and traveling all over the world". Now it's "Learning to make things stand by and fake tiles all over the world ". Programmers are as free as migratory birds. It's a pity that we can't fly to the moon any more, so we're so cool that we're relying heavily on the big environment. Here, I sincerely wish and pray that the software industry in our motherland can take off.

Become a talent

Since programming is a young man, since few people can develop technology for their whole life, since today's popular technology will become obsolete after several years, we have reason to expect that we will not only get the technology while studying it, in addition, the overall capability is improved. In this way, no matter what you do in the future or start your own business, you will have a foundation for success. When we have nothing, we desire everything. We hope that we will not only have rich knowledge, but also have a strong understanding and learning ability. We are not only proficient in technology, but also understand economics and marketing. However, "the wider the area, the less income you get" (the Wimbledon strawberry sauce rule) is not good. If you want to get everything, you just prove that you don't know what you really want. My colleagues and I often lament that they do not know what they are really interested in and what they really want to do ....

To be more popular with mm

So far, I have not found any direct help for programming. However, I have heard of hackers who have prepared trojan programs for mm to steal QQ numbers, write games to make mm happy, and write plug-ins for landlords.

To be better than others

In the end, people are satisfied only when they are better than others, no matter how much we get. Why is the happiness of people reduced when science and technology advances, the economy develops, and the life is rich? Because the convenience brought by technological progress will soon become "Aesthetic Fatigue", economic development will only make the competition more intense. Every day, we are in a torrents. Only by struggling can we not lag behind others. In the end, we may have gained a lot, but lost our peace of mind and satisfaction. We forgot the peaceful scenery that once made us intoxicated.

For self-realization

It is interesting that people are just a group of crawlers competing for power, but they all dream about "meaningful" work. In any case, I do not know how this wonderful psychological requirement comes from. When I went to school, the teacher taught us that the information system could "improve the management level", and I was naive to think that I could not even do anything for the general manager. Now I finally understand that the information system cannot improve the management level! Just like BMW cannot improve driving technology. Can this always improve work efficiency? It can be improved a little, but it cannot make the user appear better than others. It does not help users become wealthy, but adds a lot of login data workload to users. How can users be interested in using the system? So there are semi-idle information systems everywhere. How can such systems improve the efficiency of enterprises? Okay, that's even if our job is meaningless. But who is willing to admit that he is just a tool for the boss to create spam programs?

Because it is interesting

Programming is an interesting game. The technology required to explore programming is like exploring the customs clearance secret of a game. It can make the game process more interesting and make the game a pleasure rather than a torment. When we use all kinds of knowledge and skills to play games with ease, our hearts are filled with the joy of success through one difficult level after another, self-confidence and satisfaction are obtained from the crowd worship and envy eyes.

Technology-oriented

The Perfection of any technology will produce an internal aesthetic and let people go. What is the significance of stacking a cup faster? However, it attracts countless people to practice day after day, just to get the intoxicating beauty. Maybe only this can be the source of perseverance and patience.

Beyond beyond

Nothing else, just to feel the feeling of reaching the peak, just to feel the loneliness and sorrow of the solitary defeat. Just like the ancient swordsmen, they can only feel their own existence by killing one or more top experts.

To make China the strongest

The hero of Xia is the people of China. So I can also be a hero, because this is my ideal, although I can only think of this ideal on the 9th day.

Every time I feel passionate about the idea of "technology-oriented", I can almost immediately enjoy the blessing of + 3 and the patience of + 2; but in reality, I want to live a prosperous, carefree, and decent life. The constant expansion of desire makes me often confused. I really want to escape this crowded city and enjoy a quiet life in the mountains, where I can see the quiet and pure air, you can freely look out and enjoy the peaceful scenery that seems to be designed for eternity ....
