entertaining

(62).

Is it just programmer boredom, or is it common to most workers, or is boredom a part of life? When I opened my eyes in the morning, it was already three poles in the sun. After working overtime at my desk for many days, my back was sore. I lay in bed and struggled to get up.

When I light up my phone screen, it’s 10:15, and I break the jar and think I’ll be late today. Turn on the news software, insight today’s news, the entertainment industry that thing is always a hot topic.

Today, the headlines are dominated by a popular actress announcing her love affair. I’m not really interested in celebrities getting married, having affairs, having babies and getting divorced. But the line in the subtitle “XX announces relationship, causing Weibo server to go down” did manage to catch my eye.

Remember last summer, when a popular married male star had an affair and a female star was caught by paparazzi. It was originally an entertainment news, but as the event was reported by paparazzi on Weibo, a large number of users entered weibo to browse, comment and forward. The weibo server was eventually overwhelmed and shut down for an hour.

At that time, a weibo programmer who was holding a wedding received the news of the outage and worked at his desk at the wedding in a groom’s dress to deal with online bugs. His story was shared on the Internet, sparking heated discussion and turning the affair into a tech story.

With many tech gurus prescribing remedies for the service’s instability, there has been a flurry of discussion among programmers about the technical architecture of social networking sites. Since then, weibo technical team after a year of seclusion training, claimed to solve the problem of instantaneous high concurrent access to the website.

A few days ago, the CTO of Weibo declared in a joking way on the media that “the current technology level of Weibo is enough to carry eight A-list stars cheating at the same time”. Who knew reality would hit you so fast?

Rumor: micro-blog programmers pay most attention to the entertainment industry daily, they are always praying that those popular stars can stop, don’t clean the whole of some uncomplicated, disgusting themselves and others.

Solved the problem of stars cheating, but not the problem of stars getting married. I don’t know what kind of discussion will be triggered by the weibo outage? How many more jokes are online media going to spawn? How long will microblog programmers be squeezed by their peers?

The survival of a programmer is to keep up a relentless pursuit of technology, rather than focus on celebrity gossip.

By the time I had finished, it was eleven o ‘clock. Walk out of the apartment, instantly surrounded by sunlight. The street trees were covered with yellow leaves, which were blown off by the wind and fell to the earth, sometimes fast and sometimes slow. The streets that the sanitation workers had just cleared were soon invaded by dead branches and leaves.

As autumn arrived and the weather turned cooler, Beijing’s smog waxed and waned, leading many to stock up on face masks. TV programs began to discuss the heating time and the best viewing time of fragrant Hill red leaves.

The security guy flirts with the girl next to him and absent-mindedly swings the security scanner at the subway security checkpoint. It was nearly noon and the subway was empty. I leaned against the car door, sometimes staring at the scenery outside, sometimes fiddling with my phone, which was very bourgeois and comfortable.

My phone beeped with a wechat message, and I focused entirely on the screen. In a wechat group called “Men’s Secret Base”, Wang posted a number of the latest bicolor predictions.

Wang xu is keen on studying dichromatic spheres. To this end, he wrote a bicolor winning trend prediction software. Every day he buys a few lottery tickets, as suggested by the software. According to him, he designed the software to include random processes, probability theory, Yin and Yang, five elements, zhouyi eight diagrams and other scientific and non-scientific prediction methods.

However, as far as I know, his lottery business is still in the red.

“Here’s a bonus.” He was followed by big Brother, known for his informality, who posted a message in the group. Big fly elder brother a move must be shocking, I carefully stared at the screen, waiting for his welfare.

Moments later, there was a photo of a European girl in a bikini, very sexy. Group of people know big fly elder brother love to see beauty, big fly elder brother wrote a climb for this special beauty photo program. The program periodically crawls images from a web site for him to view. Recently, big fly elder brother’s wretched temperament with added many.

For me, programming is a hobby, but not a passion, just a livelihood skill. Others around me, on the other hand, have made a lot of money, spent a lot of time and had a lot of fun programming.

Like Kangshen, he was keen to study The Three Kingdoms in addition to studying Buddhist sutras. Many years ago, he made a website about The Three Kingdoms, which is full of contents of The Three Kingdoms. There are games, there are articles, there are pictures, there are handcrafts. The site gathered a lot of people and received some advertising offers.

.

Oddly enough, whether I need to introduce myself to a new place or apply for a job or resume, I always list traveling as my hobby. It seems that most people who can’t find their passion lie to themselves like this.

But in fact, I have never thought of wandering in any place. Even Tibet, which is regarded as a place of pilgrimage by many people, is not very attractive to me. I have always been reluctant to believe that a worldly body will become empty when I arrive at a place.

I remember when I was in college, there was a very popular app where people could mark the places they had been growing up. There were a lot of people around who had marked almost the entire territory of China. The United States, England, France and Germany have also been visited by a few. And I was in the center of the hundreds of miles around the place around the circle, very narrow.

“Big fly elder brother, you recently thin again, nutrition wants to keep up with ah, suggest you go baidu to quit color over there turn around.” Wang Xu in the group to make fun of big fly brother.

“I wipe, that I later do not send welfare to you.” Big Fly sent an angry expression in the group.

“No, Big Fly.” I enter the message.

“I don’t want to pull kangshen also in the group.” Wang Xu made a mean smile.

“You can don’t be dead, kang god if see we go to work every day during infuse water chat, affirmation suspect we work not saturated.” Big Fly is a veteran.

After the banter, inevitably, we talked about the twitter outage that morning. Last year, pictures of a groom on his wedding day dealing with the breakdown of his weibo account swept the Internet, and many new media outlets launched a new wave of marketing.

I heard that when the groom moved to a new job, he was repeatedly asked the same question: What was it like to have the attention of the entire tech community on your wedding day?

At lunch, Li Xiangyang saw the welfare picture of the European girl on my mobile phone. At his repeated entreaties, I brought him into our secret group.

Better all alone than all.

Busy day, dry mouth day. Programming is addictive, and by the time I took my eyes off the computer and stretched out, it was dark outside. Today is Friday, we leave work earlier than usual, one after another people carry school bags out of the office area.

Wang xu’s girlfriend came to see him after work. The girl stood at the door of the office area, dressed very beautifully, and attracted the side glares of a group of people in the group. I think it’s some kind of anniversary. Wang Xu said so a mouth, my attention on the girl, and did not listen carefully.

Li Xiangyang about the administration department of a group of girls to see the drama, but also early underground class. Li xiangyang has always been generous in his pursuit of girls. In order to pursue a girl, he invited her to the whole group of people to see the play, is not a loss of money.

I was really depressed when two of my old dinner friends left me. Too lazy to go downstairs for lunch, I grabbed a few Snickers bars from the snack bar. Munching on the rumbling hunger, typing furiously at the keyboard. It wasn’t easy with the development demands on my head.

Because of the cost of keeping people, the company outsources a large part of its testing needs to third parties. Recently, the testing department changed to a testing supplier. The vendor uses the number of bugs reported to developers as one of the metrics to evaluate their employees.

Therefore, recently a period of time, and I docking that test brother, always keep giving me bugs. Big and small, right and wrong, old and new.

So I spent a good part of the day explaining bullshit to the test boy. If it weren’t for the fact that he was a novice with little experience and need to grow up, I would like to hit him to death.

Chatting with the test boy, I learned that he graduated from high school last year and spent 20,000 yuan to sign up for an IT training institution. After finishing his studies at the beginning of the year, the training institution recommended him to come to Langyun to do test outsourcing.

Considering that Huang fei was the same age and had the same education background as the test boy, I suggested that he also take the test. I told him about the routine work of a tester. Huang fei rejected my suggestion on the spot and was very decisive.

He said he wanted to be the kind of person who would code and write programs to change the world, just like Steve Jobs. I told him jobs didn’t really code. Still, I admire his ability to grasp the nettle.
