This article was first published on my public account “Ruochuan Vision”, “2020 Summary of Ruochuan, Water wave is Not exciting”.

preface

Since 2014, I have been writing annual summaries every year for six years. 2016 annual summary, graduation work 2017 annual summary, as always 2018 annual summary, bland 2019 annual summary, bland 2020 annual summary, It’s been seven years since the end of this year. Recently, I have been thinking about the details of the 2020 annual summary and what I should write differently this year. However, after thinking about it, IT seems that this year will be no different. In the 2019 summary article, it was written that the title of the 2020 summary might be called “The water wave is not exciting”. Deep down, it feels good that the water is stagnant. It may be that there is a lake deep within, and it is calm, and sometimes it stirs up water and waves, but eventually it will return to calm, which means that being ordinary is the norm. Annual summary in previous years is basically New Year’s day 3 days holiday to write. Speaking of New Year and New Year’s day, recall the last day of these years. Let’s go back to December 31, 2016, when the four of us went to Liangzhu Museum. Back on December 31, 2017, several college students in Hangzhou had dinner and sang songs together. Back to December 31, 2018, several colleagues went to The West Lake for New Year’s Eve. Finally, my colleague drove us back. Later, I heard my friends say that they went to the West Lake for New Year’s Eve. There were too many people who could not get a car. Finally, they went back at 4 or 5 in the morning and said that they would never go to the West Lake for New Year’s Eve again. Back to December 31, 2019, with the previous “experience”, the atmosphere of the New Year is not so strong, so I crossed the year in my residence. The second day of New Year’s day, my friend drove me to tangqi ancient town to stroll around, opened the year of 2020.

I remember back in December 2019, when I read on my Weibo that wuhan had an unidentified pneumonia outbreak. On January 20, 2020, when I went home for The Spring Festival, I saw a discussion about masks in various groups. I didn’t think too much and didn’t have time to buy masks, so I went home without a mask. No one thought that the pandemic would affect the whole world. On December 31, 2020, he crossed a year in his residence. It’s been an extraordinary year.

Recall these years, sigh time flies, every year has been ordinary. Not nearly as big a year as any of the bigwigs in your circle of friends.

Personally, I recommend readers to write an annual summary. It is not necessary to publish it. It is also good to read it for themselves, or maybe it is also a review for their future. I am very glad that some readers have come to my blog to see if I have written an annual summary, and some readers have left messages on the official account saying that they have finished reading my annual summary of previous years and want to see my annual summary of 2020. But now that I’ve written it, I’m afraid I’m sorry they’re expecting it. In 2016, I learned a course of annual plan, which mentioned 8 aspects of life, including physical health, financial management, interpersonal community, work and career, family life, learning and growth, experience breakthrough, and leisure and relaxation. I think these 8 aspects are quite reasonable, so I started to write the annual summary according to these 8 aspects from 2016. In addition, as a reader friend, you can also search wechat mini program: click on the target nine squares, you can see these eight aspects.

, also can see zou Xiaoqiang teacher’s article “small tools: can see beautiful target board at any time”.

Body · Health

This year, I basically walked to and from work, let’s call it exercise. That year, the eyesight went down again. The same applies to a quote I wrote in my 2018 annual review. Just confirm that sentence: really want to play less mobile phone computer, the eyes are more and more bad, open alipay can not see the money. This year, there was no record of difficulty falling asleep. In 2019, 12 cases of tossing and turning and difficulty falling asleep were recorded. We all know the importance of physical health, but most of us, as young people, have bad habits and eating habits, which may lead to some health problems in the long run. Physical health, financial management, and community are the building blocks of life.

Finance · Financial Management

The annual review is always about financial management, but in fact, very little financial management. See circle of friends peers fry sideline a year have earned 30W +, real envy ah. But on second thought, others must have accumulated for a long time and paid a lot of efforts. It seems to be light, but in fact we don’t see the process behind it. I see a sentence in other people’s annual summary: investment does not pursue windfall profits, the annual rate of 10%~20% is ok. I believe in the power of compound interest. The key is to insist that investment is only a sideline in 10 years, and I hope to achieve financial freedom through investment in 10 years.

Interpersonal · Community

This year, I met only a handful of people offline. I met two university alumni and two front-end friends (in my wechat group) in total. After work, in addition to colleagues in the company, other friends meet offline, basically based on a year as a unit, the whole year to meet offline people really few. The number of people who really chat for a long time is also very small. As the saying goes: The more you grow up, the more lonely you are.

Work · Career

I rarely write about the work of the company in my annual review. My job is to be a small front-end development engineer for an unknown small company, responsible for small programs and website development, etc. This year, in terms of work, due to the company’s change, I acted as the interviewer of front-end development and was responsible for recruiting people for the company. I remember I was very nervous when I interviewed others for the first time in 2017. I had a job interview when I first graduated, and now I’m changing my status. Time flies. Wakatime uses Vscode for the total number of hours of coding in 2020, which is about the same as in 2019. On average, I spent more than 5 hours using the editor VSCode every day, including the most on February 13, which was 11 hours and 16 minutes. I remember that there was a lot of work involved in telecommuting on this day. They spent 45 hours on their blogs, down from 107 hours in 2019. The statistics here are actually focused on the time spent using VSCode, which should be a lot. Put down the statistical address here wakatime.com/a-look-back… For readers who do not know the address to access wakatime.

As usual, the company code submission record and personal Github code submission record are posted along the way.

We media technology, slowly build personal brand

Wechat: No matter how small an individual is, he has his own brand. I’ve been writing about “Building my personal brand slowly” since 2016, and the year 2020 will be the year the real gains will come.

Public number 8W + reading

This year, the department of Comparative Buddha opened the public account “Ruochuan Vision”, and gained some benefits beyond work. Both qingbo big data and the annual report of the new list show that the total number of public accounts in the whole year is 8W + reading, an increase of 2183.73% compared with 2019. Although it may not be so accurate, it should not be much different.

On January 11, the beginning of the year, I received the first advertisement of 300 yuan from the public account, but the follow-up basically did not continue to update, compared with Buddhism, and received fewer advertisements. The operation of the public number is actually very time consuming. Even if it is to reprint the article, the basic every day to spend an hour or so to choose articles to send articles. If you are writing your own original articles, it will take about 10 hours or more for each article. As an Internet worker, time is a scarce resource.

Really wake up to not so Buddhists, working days are updated, it is already November. Why wake up, at that time to consider two points: 1, the public account for the content creator is very beneficial, at the same time the ability to cash is very strong, 2, believe that the power of compound interest to explore more possible. On the wechat public account platform, if an article has been declared original, others must obtain authorization to reprint and publish it on the public account, while it is common for other platforms to reprint and plagiarize at will. Perhaps after N years, the sideline income of operating the public account can exceed the main business. Although my public number of fans is still very small, but also can be connected to some advertising, with some income, but also to my readers friends seek some welfare. For example, in the year of 2020, the two wechat messages sent 3306.30 yuan and 2469.30 yuan respectively. Although readers may not receive much after sharing, I was surprised to find so many red envelopes, because compared with the 1007.14 yuan I sent in 2019. And my AD revenue for 2020 is small, not nearly as big as some of the big guys. I would like to express my special thanks to my readers for their support and to the advertisers who have cooperated with me in advertising (mainly open class Bar, Pull Education, Everest education).

Speaking of the operation of the public account can be traced back to 2013, “Ruochuan Vision” was formerly the public account of the association I opened, at that time, wechat just launched the “wechat public account” about a year. At that time, wechat was rarely used and operated public accounts. Although the number of followers was small, the number of public accounts was also small and the reading volume was relatively high. Later, in the career guidance class, the teacher required each of us to write a resume, I wrote a “new media operation” resume, was praised by the teacher, the teacher has been handed down to the younger students for reference, younger students do not know me, they may think I am doing “new media operation” related work. Who would have thought that after many years, I would still be on the road of new media (public number) operation.

Sometimes I would like to run the public account earlier, the results will be better than now, maybe. But reflect, the public operation is to provide value to fans for a long time, can last a long positive cycle. And long-term continuous value provision, is the author needs to have value to provide, need more input to improve their own value of multiple output. At the same time, I have clearly realized that accepting advertisements too early and too often is like killing the goose that lays the golden egg. What I need is to create more high-quality content, run the business well, and do incremental work first to stabilize the growth of fans and reading volume. Fans of the public number of the author of the content and author recognition, not because of the public number to receive some advertising and cancel attention, after all, fans benefit from the public number of content, but also know that it is not easy to do the public number, that is, people often say the altruistic win-win. At present, I have received many advertisements, and I feel a little ashamed of my readers’ attention.

This year, tomb-sweeping Day holiday, opened a second wechat account, up to now more than 1000 wechat friends. The two wechat accounts have accumulated 3500+ friends. There are also six wechat communication groups, with a total of more than 1,000 friends, which is very small compared to other public accounts. Compared to 2019, a wechat group is an improvement. Now it is wechat 8.0, support 10000 wechat friends can see the circle of friends, also don’t know monkey year horse month will add 10000 wechat friends, but look forward to this day soon.

Since the operation of the public account, also connected to some very good public account master and many very good people. Occasionally someone added me to wechat or mentioned in their articles, said my “learning the overall structure of the source code series” to TA help a lot, writing the most happy than there are a lot of people affirmation and support. Some even say they’ve landed a job developing a 20K front end and must send in a box of home-grown kiwi as a thank-you. I don’t think I did anything to help them, but I’m still glad to get everyone’s affirmation and support. Later, I thought it was wrong. After all, I sent things to me, but I couldn’t provide corresponding help. It was not good. All the time, when I was answering questions and answering questions in private chat, I did not receive the red envelopes sent by my readers, nor did I receive the things sent to me by my readers.

Zhihu 63W + reading

This year, the number of fans of “Ruochuan” on Zhihu increased by 2,000 more than last year, and now stands at 8,377. The number of readers increased by 63 million compared with 2019, when it was 4 million. Several answers were recommended by Zhihu. The highest one broke the 31W + reading mark, as shown below. Although I don’t think it was a very good answer. May be 2019 wrote “learning source code overall architecture series” of accumulated performance.

Two of Gao’s answers were also published on the official account, but zhihu is the latest version. Wakawa zhihu: 2 years of front-end experience, the project is not technical content, how to do? What are the must-see JS libraries? By the way, put down my “Learning source Architecture Series” link. The KOA source code and redux source code were written in 2020. I wrote six in the second half of 2019 and only two in 2020, so it’s a mystery if I will write more in 2021. 1. Learn the overall architecture of jQuery source code and build its own JS class library 2. Learn underscore source code architecture and build your own functional programming library 3. Learn the overall architecture of LoDash source code and build your own functional programming class library 4. Learn the overall architecture of Sentry source code and build its own front-end exception monitoring SDK 5. Learn the overall architecture of VUEX source code and build your own state management library 6. 7. Learn the overall architecture of KOA source code, and analyze the koA Onion model principle and CO principle 8. Learn the overall architecture of Redux source code and deeply understand the principles of Redux and its middleware

other

This year, in 2017, the number of people who opened the free knowledge planet “front-end vision · Ruochuan” also grew gradually, but the update was less, and the main time and energy were put on the update of the public account. This year, koA source code articles published on the Language Finch platform were selected as “language Finch selection”, which is quite rare.

This year, I only posted 3 articles on the gold digging platform, with more than 1000+ followers and nearly 10W + readers compared to 2019. Now the total amount is 14W +.

Family · Life

This year, the number of hours spent at home was the highest in recent years. Due to the epidemic, I had a holiday from January 20 to March 14 when I returned to Hangzhou. I stayed at home and worked remotely for nearly two months. My mother cooks for a long time during the Spring Festival holiday, so we don’t have to worry about it. Then my mom went to work, so we cooked for ourselves. This year, the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival together, the holiday at home for eight days, when the National Day returned to work, always feel like a dream, dream back home, at home time is always so short. This year, I bought a new laptop for my brother. This year, CLEARLY remember father’s Day that day, and dad chat. I envied my father’s mention of the benefits of being a cousin in the system. This year, the “Love each other family” wechat group has been used more.

Learning and growth

This year, I did not participate in one offline technology sharing conference, while in 2019, I participated in five offline technology sharing conferences. This year, I have less input and output, and only 3 articles have been written. This year, I only finished reading 4 books on wechat. Wechat reading is very good, many books are available, if you like reading you have not used wechat reading, you can try to use it.

Experience · Breakthrough

This year, there was no breakthrough experience.

Leisure and relaxation

This year, I have been immersed in confusion and anxiety for a long time. There is a word called people with low desire, which may be me. On weekends, I often watch TV series or movies to kill time and numb myself. The longest day (Sunday, August 16) was seven hours. I have watched more than one year, together, I will Wait for you in the Future and Mulan. This year, I did not travel. From 2016 to 2017 when I just graduated, I would visit some scenic spots or universities in Hangzhou when I was free on weekends. Hardly any shopping these days.

conclusion

Look at the time of the year from the point of time. Can not help but think of Confucius in Sichuan sigh: the dead such as husband, not willing to give up day and night. The year is so short that when you write your annual plan with confidence, when you write your annual summary, you forget that your plan is probably the state of most people. I’ve written about how to Set Worthwhile Goals before, but few people are really good at managing goals. The same goes for “people tend to overestimate what they can accomplish in one year and underestimate what they can accomplish in five.”

The purpose of writing an annual review is to review and review yourself every year so that years from now you can look back on what you did or didn’t do that year and maybe your future self will thank you for your efforts. With a certain amount of effort to accumulate, a calm lake may stir up a splash.

My 2020, it all adds up to a pretty average year. I have only written three articles. The Buddhist Department has run a public account “Ruochuan Vision”, which has accumulated more than 63W reading volume on Zhihu platform, and over a million reading volume on the whole network. Therefore, the introduction of the public account was changed to the following:

I am Ruochuan, the author of “Learning the overall structure of the source code series”, zhihu, nuggets and other platform articles more than a million reading. Committed to front-end development experience sharing. Vision: To help the pioneers to broaden their vision and grow in the Internet industry within 5 years.

From 2018, the annual summary article will almost not list the annual plan… When I sent this article to my group for trial reading, someone said to write an annual plan for 2021. Then simply write down two points: The first point is: we media operation, especially the public account “Ruochuan Vision”, create more quality content, appropriate recruitment of small assistants to share part of the work, try more possibilities. The second is: “Work hard and earn more money.” Unconsciously wrote 5000+ words, thank you as a reader friend to see here. Finally, the Lunar New Year is coming. I wish all readers a happy Chinese New Year. In the New Year, meet a better yourself.
