I'm working on the smallest project I've ever had, but I'm using a lot of complex technology. I've implemented a tiny state machine for it, and I'm going to work on a rules engine and maybe even a custom communication protocol. Small but complete.
Communication is always the most important and difficult thing. But I can never convince anyone.
Everyone has a lot of ideas, everyone has a lot of ideas, everyone thinks their own ideas are the best, and as a result everyone is arguing around a lot of implementation details that don't make much sense. low efficiency.
The key is the lack of so-called authority. I have always felt that we are a country that believes in authority, and when there is no authority, everyone thinks that they are authority.
There is no future for technology, and I see such arguments from time to time.
More than ten years ago, I saw a lot of people posting: I don't know what to do when you are 30 years old?
A few years ago, I saw a lot of people posting: I am in my thirties, I have been working in low-level programming, I don't know where my future is?
Recently, I saw a lot of people posting: I am in my 40s, I have been working as a front-line programmer, and I don’t know where to go?
Next, I make a bold prediction: In a few years or ten years, many people will post and say that they are already in their fifties, and they are still programmers. They don’t know what to do?
If you are reading this blog post, will you find it interesting?
Many people who do technology are saying: Technology has no future.
Many managers are saying: There is no future for technology.
As a technologist, it is said that there is no future for tech, so why do you still do it?
As a manager, it is said that there is no future for technology. If no one is doing technology, who do you care?
Not much to say, at least in this land, the hard-working project managers are just as hard-working as the hard-working programmers.
But why do people who don't do management say that there is no future for management?
Probably has something to do with our traditions. We are a nation with a large power distance, and we always feel that it is uncomfortable to be "controlled" by others, but it is good to "control" people. The more people who "control" themselves, the less they "control" themselves. I feel more and more that this kind of thinking is a kind of sickness.
I always feel that doing technology is doing things, and managers are managing people. It may be precisely based on such a mentality that so many people say that technology has no future.
It is precisely such a tradition that many companies do not pay attention to the accumulation of technology and the cultivation of technical talents. Because of this, it is difficult for companies with engineer culture to be born in this land. And abroad is forming a trend: many things are driven by technology itself. Even some laboratories in the United States have used open source ideas to study drugs for the treatment of cancer, which is a strategy driven entirely by technology. In China, many things are often mixed with too many political factors, resulting in low efficiency and serious internal friction.
On the other hand, those who do not do management say that there is no future for management, probably because they are already "management talents". After all, as long as you enter the industry, you can start from technology, and no one can do management when they first enter the industry.
Just write these first. I will add more ideas later.
