Those old programmers who say they’re worse than each other,

I should be looking at you, like ME.

I look at you with envy.


The IT industry has accumulated decades of technical experience,

All the hardware, software, algorithms and architectures,

It’s like a gift for you guys.


Advanced technology, generous bosses, thriving industries,

The fruits of computer science are being unwrapped,

You can enjoy it.


Free to learn a language,

Learning a framework,

Appreciate a piece of code,

Interview in faraway places.


A lot of programmers, you grew up with the freedom to express your taste.

Many of us have just graduated and are entering the age of 40,

Not wondering what kind of wig she liked,

What kind of plaid shirt do you like?

Barriers between programmers were broken down,

With the same technology,

You can make thousands of friends worth programming with.

You have the power we all dreamed of,

The right to work overtime.


What you code is your life.

You’re lucky enough to have an industry,

But the industry is even more fortunate to meet you.

I look at you with respect, and I salute your professionalism.


You’re turning the inefficient into the efficient,

Turn the long into the short,

Turning closed into open source,

Turn the local into the cloud.


You take your own code,

Into a business of sharing happiness with millions of people,

Hats off to your confidence.


Product managers are used to sarcasm and denial,

Programmers are generous with praise and encouragement,

Hats off to your atmosphere.


People with bad skills are at odds with each other,

Technical excellent people united with the United States, and different.

Younger bodies allow for more frequent overtime and demand changes.


And then one day I realized,

Not only are we teaching you how to program,

You are also inspiring us,

How to write better code.


Those older programmers who complain that the next generation is getting worse,

I should be watching you, like I am.

I look at you with gratitude.


Because of you,

The world will like China better,

Because the best scenery in a country,

Programmers in this country.


Because of you,

The world’s micro blogs, Tiktok, wechat account of the expression of youth,

Instead of hair loss, anxiety, confusion,

But kind, brave, unselfish, unafraid of bugs,

Keyboard in hand, code in heart.


We don’t have to live the way we want to live,

The imagination of our generation of programmers,

Not enough to imagine your future at 35.


If you still need our blessing, then,

Work overtime, backwater programmer!

We are in the same honorable business!
