Chapter 234: Inspire You to Move Forward

Inadvertently, the micro-hardware and software Celestial Empire Company has completed the layout of two supercomputers in the north and south, coupled with a large number of servers deployed in various places before, not to mention in 2002, even in 2018 before his rebirth, no company can do this.

He plundered a lot of wealth through various means, just for such a day, to complete the superleap in computing power. Now that the hardware cornerstone has been basically built, all that remains is to enrich the content it carries.

The primary goal is the operation of World of Warcraft.

Whether it is a legend or a miracle, no matter how huge the user base is, how dazzling the financial data is, in his mind, compared with the World of Warcraft, there is still a big gap, this gap is not just the picture, gameplay, or game balance, but the fundamental gap, reflected in all aspects of the game.

To put it simply, players can play Legends or Marvel for two or three years, but will you want to play both games in five or ten years? Faced with such questions, it is estimated that 90% of players will choose "no!".

The World of Warcraft has been in operation since 04 and has been standing, experiencing the continuous loss of players and being diverted by other games, but the user base is still huge.

What's even more speechless is that in 2018, Blizzard actually launched the Warcraft nostalgia suit, but I didn't expect that it was such a thing, in the eyes of analysts, purely fried cold rice. But it detonated the enthusiasm of the old Warcraft players, forty or fifty-year-old old players, some of whom have gray hair and have long lost their passion for the game, but at this moment, they called friends and joined the journey of the World of Warcraft nostalgic clothes.

So much so that Blizzard has added dozens of servers one after another, but the group servers are still full, and the number of people in line is as high as more than 5000+ during the peak period after 5 o'clock in the evening, which has shocked many analysts. Thanks to the fire storm of nostalgic clothing, the stocks of Blizzard Entertainment and NetEase, which represents Warcraft, have also risen all the way, which makes people marvel at the ability of established game companies to attract fans.

Do other games have this ability? The answer is no.

The golden age of a person's life is only a few decades, and the blood in life and the indifference are all like a passing cloud, only Warcraft has such a great charm to awaken the long-dormant enthusiasm in the player's heart.

This is the reason why Zhang Yi is particularly fond of the World of Warcraft development team.

Such a game is the face of the company, no matter how it changes in the outside world, with such a game in hand, what do you have to worry about.

It's just that insiders know that in addition to computing power rental and World of Warcraft, this young man may be planning other things.

He has always given people the impression that he always plans before acting, and will never do things without a purpose.

The speculation of the outside world does not affect Zhang Yi, in addition to the fact that he was tired of dealing with all aspects some time ago, the most important thing is that he feels that there is always a night

Xiaolai is worried about himself because his strength is not strong enough.

GitHub source code repository, after the precipitation of 2001 and 2002, the scale of users is slowly expanding, and the content is becoming richer and richer.

Using git gadgets, download the source code of the program, deepen and improve some of the code, and then submit it to the author or the core team, and the team members add the author's name to the source code repository according to the contribution of the contributor to the source code.

After all, the employees you recruited through the profession, but what is the ability, as long as the trial is understood. Through the open source software that is closely related to the industry, in the ocean of source code, find software developers who meet their own enterprises, compared with the waste of human resources caused by large-scale recruitment, this way of selecting talents is more targeted.

Headhunters inadvertently found that the demand for personnel in many technology companies is not as strong as before, and after a careful understanding, they found that they have a better way to recruit personnel.

The technical personnel who have successfully entered large enterprises have announced their methods of obtaining carp leaping over the dragon gate, and many talents have found that there is such a website, which has created a new way for talents to promote themselves.

Originally, you have to consider the interview, you have to consider the image, you have to consider the cost of applying, now, as a programmer, you only need to stay at home and run your own github account, on this, how much source code you have contributed, the open source projects you have participated in, all of them are clear, employing enterprises, from this, you can see your code style, the high-level programming language you are good at, and the pertinent evaluation of other peers on you, these things, all of which are open and can be consulted by anyone, without any open source group, dare to influence the evaluation standards of others。 Because, every word you say, every modified command line, is presented in front of thousands of fellow programmers. How dare anyone be selfish?

The first outbreak point of the infamous github website turned out to be to steal the jobs of many headhunters, which is really unexpected.

And from this moment on, this website can be regarded as truly entering the world's field of vision.

Programmers, who have always been deaf to what is going on outside the window, suddenly found that this website is like a sea of source code, in this ocean, you can wander to your heart's content, communicate with each other warmly, and collide with sparks without scruples.

At the same time, as the founder of this website, and the language launched at the same time as the website, it was also the first time in programmers

, provoked a great response.

As research deepened, it was gradually discovered that this language really has the potential to replace the C language.

You know, C++, which was born after the C language, and Java that appeared at the same time, plus the C launched by Microsoft, its original purpose was to replace the C language, but, after many years of development, the C language is still the C language, from the birth of the 70s, until now, it still has strong vitality, and no high-level programming language dares to say that it can replace the C language.

Strictly speaking, C is not a completely high-level programming language, because its most powerful point is that it can directly operate the underlying hardware, which is extremely efficient, second only to assembly language and machine language, but the application scope of the latter two is too limited, the language is too abstract, and the learning curve is too steep, which makes beginners daunting.

The language is different, C language can do it, it can do it all, and the completion efficiency is higher, and it avoids the problem that C language is easy to cause memory leakage.

Even a veteran who writes C programs does not dare to say that the crash caused by memory leaks has been completely eliminated.

What's even more admirable is that this new high-level programming language has appeared many libraries for special application scenarios, such as libraries corresponding to graphical programming, libraries for efficient array pointers, libraries for large-scale server background process management, and libraries for cleaning data and generating tables and graphs in the data processing industry.

With proprietary libraries, program developers only need to read proprietary libraries when writing programs, and use the functions and ports of the libraries, so that they will not reinvent the wheel. In this way, the coding time is greatly saved and everyone's work efficiency is improved.

For a time, the craze for learning languages swept across the north and south of the Great Wall, inside and outside the Great Wall.

However, many people's habit of reading books and learning programming has been challenged. Because the author of the language, Zhang Yi, has never published a primer on language at all.

For a while, on the website of micro-hardware and software, or in the forum of GitHub, Zhang Yi was called upon to publish a post of special learning materials as soon as possible, which was like a mountain of mountains.

For everyone's strong appeal, Zhang Yi didn't care at first. There are official documents in the language on the website, follow the documents, and you will be able to start soon, so why bother to write a book to circle everyone's money!

You know, in Europe and the United States and other countries, the original programming books are very expensive, and the average family can't afford to buy them, and many programming books will even be circulated dozens of times on second-hand book websites.

Many well-known people in the industry have also written to Zhang Yi, asking him to write professional books on language programs. Among them is the famous father of LUX, Linnastervaz.

Listening to people's persuasion and eating well, Zhang Yi's character has an extremely stubborn side, and there is also it

The tolerant side.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, writing a book and making a name is the most important thing for any literati, as a person from the Celestial Empire, and also the only person in the entire Chinese circle who has created a new high-level programming language, writing books and speaking is also very good.

For example, the first program that anyone who learns to code is basically "helloorld!".

Why is the first program of learning any language basically the conventional "helloorld!" Because it's very simple, the father of the C language, Dennis Ritchie, in his classic "C language programming", the first program is "helloorld!", in fact, this program is every learner programmer, to pay tribute to the great father of the C language. This kind of small program that runs through all programming languages is a great legend that inspires you to move forward.

As a programmer, Zhang Yi also wanted to have an extraordinary achievement.
