Today is the last day of 2020, so I am not going to share articles about technology development with you today. I took the time to write this article not only to make a summary of my 2020, but also to prepare some learning plans for myself in 2021.

Speaking of the big things that will happen in 2020, the novel Coronavirus pandemic, which is like an uninvited guest in a harmonious family, has thrown everyone out of kilter, even though it is now a full year since the Novel Coronavirus outbreak, But the whole story of what happened does stick in my mind.

Back in December 2019, when I was in the company to the project to solve the problem, inadvertently found that baidu out there has been a topic in “hubei wuhan appear unexplained viruses” caught my attention, at that time I also with my colleagues make fun next door, said to him: “now the news media is really no material can be reported, Always doing these gimmicks to get attention.” My colleague replied with a smile, “Just look at it, don’t take it seriously.” I think at that time we should also be holding this kind of attitude of disdain!

However, as time went by, such reports appeared more and more frequently, and I, who was not interested in them at first, gradually began to pay attention to them. But at that time, no one would take such things as the top priority. Why? Because there is another big event in front of us, that is the Chinese Spring Festival. In the eyes of the Chinese Spring Festival is one of the most important festival in a year, in the Spring Festival, the two separate working couples can reunion, left-behind children can see dream of mom and dad to go home, the old man could see his own children, how warm the scene, as I say above, will be coronavirus is like a visitor, disrupted the rhythm of people, This is probably the most special Spring Festival I can remember. Maybe all of us.

The Spring Festival travel rush has accelerated the spread of COVID-19 in China, and no one expected the outbreak to be so violent. At the beginning, my elders, including my family, did not pay much attention to the novel coronavirus. Then, when the Chinese New Year was approaching, everyone was preparing for the New Year’s Eve dinner. I repeatedly advised them not to go, in case they were infected, it would be the end of us all. Later with the wuhan city, CCTV news channel reported that 24 hours of the new champions league outbreak finally people begin to realize the seriousness of the situation, which is under such circumstances, I express their deep admiration of love for my motherland, in other countries also in Dui the Chinese government to implement of wuhan city is a violation of human rights, anyway, all kinds of negative reports of black country emerge in endlessly, But they are not exactly is this a series of effective means of the Chinese government including Raytheon mountain, vulcan hill hospital construction, sent medical teams to support around wuhan, do whatever it takes to save the patient’s attitude to China’s rapidly out of its outbreak, instead we’ll look at those called to herd immunity, Now that the US has become the most affected country in the world, the UK’s Novel Coronavirus has emerged as a variant and even stronger. Slap your face.

In addition to the new crown and another thing also deep hurt me, that is, Bryant’s departure day I wake up in the morning to open the phone almost the entire media news is Bryant’s death, I suddenly awake, kobe Bryant and basketball almost accompany me through the junior middle school, high school and college, sometimes think people really is too fragile, even a sporting superstar, body so well, I haven’t watched an NBA game since the news of Kobe’s passing.Outbreak has affected everybody’s work, of course, this is also the new champions league let me remember one point, I worked in my present company for almost seven years, for the first time experienced a time at the home office, under the orderly arrangement of the company, we have opened a remote office environment, although after a period of time the work that the original home office and the office in the unit is not what the two sample, On the contrary, it is safer and more efficient, so our company set the time to return to the company to work later delayed, until may to inform everyone to return to work, once let everyone envy; At first, people had a strange idea that the company was going to dissolve, but in fact it didn’t. Instead, our company is now in a better state than before.

Finished talking about the new coronation next talk about some of their own changes this year! As I mentioned above, I have been working in my current company for 7 years, which may be considered as a long time employee in the same company. Let me talk about the background of our company first. Our company is a game company rooted in Suzhou, nicknamed as the Whampoa Military Academy in the game industry. I joined the company in 2013, worked on game server logic, then transferred to the technology, and am now engaged in iOS development. Before that, I was in and out of various projects, that is, in April this year. Coincidence under my department has a vacancy right now, inside a colleague recommended me, and I talked to the leader of the now, is successfully transferred to the department (also be promoted) now, after the new department I discovered my seven years length of service isn’t at all what, work more than ten years old colleague a lot, And 20 years, every day is so dedicated to knock the code, this also let me understand a truth: technical youth meal is the idea that is totally wrong, who said old do not move technology, calm down and concentrate on their familiar field, when you become experts in the field, that is more old more popular.

So much gossip, let’s talk about this year’s output and next year’s plan!

In the first half of this year will be their own independent development of an APP is activated, is about the beautiful camera class, name is not, because the shelf after the response is very general, then considering the expenses cost server, so now I have it off the shelves, going to precipitate a period of time, consider the point charges and operating mode, such as shelves again after a reasonable solution.

On the career planning, this year also contact suzhou Internet companies, although it is holding the mentality of try to interview, barely got several offers, but in the process also exposed some of my weaknesses, such as data structures, algorithms, network, database, such as English short piece of the plate, so this year has been catch up with the data structures and algorithms.

In terms of blog output, the number of blog output this year is supposed to be quite miserable. First, I sorted out some content about new features of Apple launch, and then I sorted out the tutorial of UE4 docking with iOS platform. However, in terms of the number, it should only be in single digits.

In 2021, the target

  • Write a SwiftUI blog;
  • Write a Swift and an open source project. I have no idea about the specific type of open source project.
  • Set a target to complete 300 LeetCode questions;

Well, that’s about the end of this article. I hope everyone in the New Year to study hard, work hard, step by step to achieve their goals, here quoted a very touching words: people tend to overestimate their short-term efforts, and underestimate their long-term persistence. You work quietly, and you blow it away.

I would like to add that although the epidemic has been brought under control in China, it does not mean that it is over. Especially since it is the end of the Year, with the Spring Festival travel rush and Spring Festival, epidemic prevention is still the top priority. I do not want to experience such a thing again.
