Once upon a time, I always felt that IT elites had a glamorous appearance, especially programmers who typed codes and earned a few w per month. Not only did they earn more, but they could also play computer games during work. But, after actually becoming a programmer, OMG! I don't think so anymore! Many things are known only after being a programmer, especially these 6 things, which make people feel very real, don’t cry when you understand.
1. The salary of first-line programmers is not high
Interlaced lines are like mountains, not as good as one line, I don't know the depth of a line. Many people, including myself when I was in school, thought that the salary of programmers was very high. But in fact, the salary of first-line programmers is really not high. If it is calculated on an hourly basis, it may be lower. For children from poor families, the barriers to entry are not very high, and if you can earn more than 300,000 yuan a year by working overtime, it is true that many people have achieved a well-off life after pouring into this group. After all, this is exchanging their lives for money.
2. The real growth of technology is very useful
For an ordinary person who wants to make money, the real growth of technology is very useful. Constantly improve ourselves, keep up with the wave of technological progress, and ensure the maximum value. It is very important to type code carefully. Many software development programmers type code, it seems that they type code for work. In this way, if you regard typing code as a work task, it will be difficult for you to make a big breakthrough, such as learning new tools and technologies, because the work is often in a fixed mode, and the code must be typed carefully, because Knock for love, and knock because you want to improve software development technology.
3. BUG can never be changed
Every day I'm not writing bugs, or I'm on the way to fix bugs... Programmers often encounter various problems in their work and life. We call these problems BUG, a cup of tea, a cigarette, a bug for a day. This is not bragging, it really does happen, and as long as bugs are generated, they can never be corrected.
4. Often called by colleagues to repair the computer
Before, we thought that programmers just write code and drink tea when they go to work. In fact, it is not. Programmers are often called by colleagues to help fix the computer at work. Regardless of whether it is a software problem or a hardware problem, as long as there is something wrong with the computer, you will think of asking a programmer to fix it. This cannot be escaped. Some colleagues can't uninstall the software, nor can they install the software...
5. Programmers really lose their hair
When programmers reach a certain age, many of them face the problem of hair loss. My colleagues around me have several programmers, and their hair is getting less and less. Maybe programmers work long hours, spend more overtime, work longer hours, spend less time outdoors, and are more stressed than other jobs, so many programmers are prone to hair loss.
6. Programmers love to use Google Chrome
Many programmers like to use Google Chrome, because the interface of Google Chrome is simple, refreshing and clean, and its performance is also very good. In terms of speed, compared to Cheetah, the loading speed of Google Chrome is the first. Due to the multi-process architecture, the slow loading speed of one site will not drag down the visits to other sites, and the system will not crash.
Also, Google Chrome has rich plug-ins and is very convenient to use. Moreover, it supports comprehensive HTML5 and browser compatibility issues. Front-end programmers like chrome so much because it is the easiest to be compatible! Moreover, HTML5 and CSS3 can bring users a higher level of vision and experience.
The chrome developer tools are very useful. It has powerful simulation and inspection functions: it can be said that all common models can be simulated, even ipad, Samsung, etc. Many developers use it because it can save a lot of time.
Some domestic ordinary people prefer domestic browsers
Although foreign browsers are excellent, they may not be suitable for the domestic network environment. Especially for ordinary people, it feels that foreign browsers are "difficult to use". For example, don't know how to install plugins, can't sync accounts, etc. Therefore, a small number of Chinese people prefer domestic browsers, such as: a digital browser, Duoyu browser, etc.
This type of browser is easy to operate, easy to synchronize accounts, and also supports the installation of Google plug-ins, which is not inferior to Google in terms of speed, so many Chinese people like to use domestic browsers.
All in all, programmers are not as glamorous as imagined. Only when you really become a programmer can you really understand these things. Some people don't know much about programmers, and they always think that programmers' salaries are very high, but it is not. Also, not all programmers like plaid shirts... So, what other things do you know after becoming a programmer? Leave a comment in the comment area.
