I bought a house in Beijing with bitcoin. Welcome to Sanlian

Bitcoin was just an interesting experience of the interviewe. what really impressed me was his pursuit of technology. Whether it was skipping classes during college to finish APUE and write FTP server, or the part about intelligence and efforts in the second half, it was worth learning and thinking about

How did you become a programmer

Before the third year is not a serious programmer, more interested in the crowded machine

And then, by chance, the school had an organization called a studio, where the student affairs department would give you a room, and you could go in there with a group of students. A bunch of things that I wanted to do, and of course our studio was software development, so we had some of that in school. Not a very rare experience in the field. So it was a huge advantage for us to go to the interview.

My experience is that I went out to intern in my junior year, and probably most people’s internship is just water. I was really looking for it. I was interested in Douban, which I thought was very beautiful at the time. At the time, the aesthetic was so fancy, but also it had the ability to drag modules around on the front page, but it was a great site, and then. So I asked about our school studio before there was a senior there, but this senior is the second programmer of Douban. Zhang Shipeng, they call him The Master

The master pulled me into Douban to try to be more than 20 people. And then I went and I was abused for two months and I knew how inadequate I was, and then. I consulted a lot of seniors when I was looking for a job. Said I was going to Baidu

The senior said it was not easy to go to Baidu. You have to do this and this and this, and then you tell me a lot of things, and then I remember one thing, which is, you have to make your resume stand out. He said he wanted to do something, and then because we wrote the forum at our school. Forum, but there’s a kind of culture where people FTP all kinds of resources. He wants to replace the bandwidth is limited, so say at that time take in douban to learn the three cat kung fu of the beat, and then, I went to write a FTP server.

Is can use forum integral to change flow so a server. At that time, I probably wrote for a long time, about three months, back after I did not have classes on the sky jump class pile, as for you from the outside of this. Enterprise after the internship, do you know what happened, the world is in your school class that is empty or the things you think oh, here. This this this is not interesting at all. Anyway, the exam will make do with the past, and then to do this FTP server, he is to do three months to do what, and then online. One shot into the school forum, and it blew up

And oh, my God, this is this is as good as this. And then, of course, you have this special pride. Next, so later this, when Baidu school recruit at that time, rely on this FTP server, pass this thing, went baidu next, went Baidu also is to be abused. And then it’s hard to be abused

But there’s actually one thing that I’ve found interesting over the years. You know, a lot of people when they start out in the world or start out in this business, they believe that I’m good, that I can change the world, but actually. There is a problem that can not be ignored, but I do not know how to express it correctly, that is to say, this network, this issue is quite important. Or I was, which means you were there. There was a man in the game who was years ahead of you. To be a lot older, to have him give you a little bit of advice, can really open your mind, and it gives you a very definite purpose in your life, and THAT’s what I’m, I’m grateful for all the time. Some of my seniors and seniors in the studio gave me some simple instructions that they may not remember.

How did you make your first fortune

Go straight to the answer, which is illustrated

What about family and career

When I didn’t have a family, technology was all I had, really, when you put your heart and soul into something without distractions. The kind of motivation that came out, it was really a very scary motivation to think about now. That you can learn everything really, really fast. Is that the kind of woman who only affects your speed? Yeah, women really only affect the speed of my drawing

Do you have gay friends? Isn’t it? You have gay friends and your gay friends are probably apps. When people talk about programs and what they talk about, I find that giving them great stuff, you can talk about it together. But your wife’s a woman, and she’s a woman’s woman that means she’s interested, and you tell her to open up, so you’ll fit in. And then, let’s say your weekend, you’re not likely to say you’re at home writing code, he says he’s going out to play. How do you go out? What are you like? I used to work, maybe I. You have eight hours, you have eight hours a day to yourself, but what happens when you’re married? This at a draught, you of this pull knife speed of cultivation on a draught slow four times. What I find panicky is what I find panicky, which is you’re not keeping up with the technology. If your wife is not a programmer, then you will find. She will take you out of the programmer role, consciously or unconsciously, and you will influence your own. The speed of my training affects the speed of the rise of fans. Although it affected you to reach the speed, you finally, you think carefully, you really in this life for the knife speed, you feel that one day your Lao tze the world’s best in martial arts and what will happen

Some words for young Internet people

When I was about 30, my manager said something to me that I think really stood me in good stead. Instead of thinking about who you are and what you should do, you should think about what is missing. You think about this team, or this thing right now, how do you make it work, like I was at 360 and we were doing this. Because of automated systems. He worked on it for a while and then nobody used it, and he said to me, well, if you say nobody uses it, then you’re going to find a way for somebody else to use it, so you. What if you don’t go out? You don’t want to talk to anyone, but now you have to.

Then I’ll go behind the scalp and take my first step on the skin. And he said, “Well, just because you realize that sometimes it’s better and more fun to talk to other people than to write code, then sometimes you just enjoy it.” This is the kind of thing where you develop things for new users on your team. It’s been promoted internally and it really means you have to fill in what’s missing, you have to change your capabilities. You don’t think I’m a programmer, so I should build a program to incorporate other people’s textbook impressions, which is wrong. If you really have a bigger role to play in the organization, more useful than the organization, the organization will give you more money. Why do you say that if you get paid tomorrow, you will go where you have more money? No time to so deep to understand what you are facing, when everyone gives you advice, he can not stand on your completely your point of view to make decisions for you.

Are programmers still paid too much these days

To be honest, it’s a little high. I believe that in 10 or 20 years, programmers will be like electricians today. Not too much. People may not like it, but I think it is, which means if you don’t go. Further education to turn yourself into a group of members that really means more competition in the future. Someone who can take a place of his own, or someone who can solve a problem that no one else can solve. Then you probably have no position, in fact, a roll is this wave, is the feeling of being renewed wave after wave. For example, right now, maybe I thought maybe the Popularity of the Internet was gone, but suddenly AI came out. But if there’s not going to be another wave of this magnitude. Maybe in five or 10 years it’s going to be this one, it’s going to be very polarized, very well-paid members, you’ve got recognition. You can solve problems that other people can’t solve, and the salaries of these people will still be maintained, but they may be in the middle and lower reaches, and the members may be slowed down. To be squeezed out.

Programmer 30 years old, salary less than 30K, whether to consider a career change

Well, before 30, he maybe he wasn’t a member until he was 29.

How to define a programmer worth 40K a month

Is that we’re going to hire some architects and we’re going to hope that this kind of person is going to solve the problem that we have. Company Angle is facing a big technical problem, hope his ability is in this direction this kind of person. A lot of what we’re dealing with right now is that. Well, you know, you put things you say up there. You’re dealing with a bunch of people who are probably smart, hardworking, and on steroids. It’s just not like it used to be, you just have to be smart, you don’t have to work hard to beat a bunch of people. You’re going up there, you’re going up there on a youth pill. You work hard and you go, you have to be smart to do something and you win something. I’m almost, almost, almost today. Is that how you want to express it? All right, all right, all right.
