Riding the wind of rebirth

Chapter 1222 Efficiency
Zhou Zhi was so moved at this moment that it was really difficult for the old scholar to change his mind.

But old scholars also have two particularly good styles. The first is to seek truth from facts, and the second is to change things immediately after hearing them.

They knew something was wrong but it was because of their face and their "dignity" that they were determined to die. They couldn't do such a thing.

Later generations lacked their rigor and their investigation and research. They took the so-called "logical analysis" and thought it was omnipotent. Little did they know that when the prerequisites are insufficient or incorrect, the more correct the logic, the more absurd the result will often be.

However, the stubborn ones often still make plausible claims. Do you think my conditions [-], [-], and [-] are correct?Is my logical deduction correct?So how could my results be wrong?

He completely failed to consider that although conditions [-], [-], and [-] were correct, there were still other factors [-], [-], and [-] that he didn't know about and would be continuously revised. After all the conditions were completed, he still used his own logic to deduce them. The results could all be completely different.

To give a simple example, regarding the ancient imperial examinations, someone conducted a survey and found that most of the civil servants' families had between ten and a hundred acres of land, accounting for [-] to [-] percent of it. Therefore, it was concluded that in ancient times, all those who were qualified to participate in the imperial examinations had It is a large landowning class, so the officials selected are members of the group that safeguards the interests of the landlord class. This is the key to the maintenance of the feudal dynasty.

However, as long as he checked the books, he could find that the land covering an area of ​​more than ten acres to a hundred acres could barely qualify as a landlord in modern times, but in ancient times this was not the case at all.

In the Tang Dynasty, land was granted to one hundred acres of land, and a family of five and three acres would have to live in a family of three hundred acres.

Taizu of the Song Dynasty inspected Beijing and Zhou Dynasty and found that he was extremely anxious when he returned to the palace.

Therefore, in these two dynasties, families with more than ten to one hundred acres of land could only be considered middle-class families of that era at best.

In any era, middle-class families are the backbone of the country and the backbone of society. This is the correct conclusion of history.

Therefore, if someone does not know the ancient land-acreage system, he is missing the fourth condition, and then uses his limited knowledge to apply logical deductions. That is, the conditions are correct and the logic is correct, but the result is wrong.

In fact, many of the controversies on the Internet in later generations originated from this. Later, everyone began to become smarter, that is, "let the bullets fly for a while" and wait for sufficient conditions before deriving conclusions.Otherwise, you will get slapped in the face accidentally.

But this is also self-correction learned after suffering too much. The Internet era has not yet begun, so Mai Mingchuan can correct his own understanding in time and stand on Zhou Zhi's side, which is really commendable.

Another advantage for people who work in technology is that they only focus on results, and focus on abilities and abilities.

Zhou Zhi is undoubtedly capable. He is obviously a liberal arts student, but whether he brings up the concept of a large font library, or develops character codes and recognition programs in advance, whether he is engaged in project management or writing code, he is actually considered to be a master. Good hands.

The story that Zhou Zhi came to the computer room for the first time, put his character recognition program on the computer, rewritten the interface program on the spot and compiled it in one go has become a myth to the software team.

If the group leaders who have just said a bunch of things and the team leaders still don’t understand the truth, then they don’t have the IQ to be admitted to university.

Indeed, if they had not carefully and repeatedly emphasized the process documents they were required to prepare, it is estimated that the UNICODE organization would not look at them, and Microsoft and IBM would not be so easy to talk to.

If there is no international patent, people will directly take the Hanwen library as their own, and backhand you to register it. To use the old saying in Sichuan, then it is really "holding the nose and you can't sneeze", you can only comfort. He has contributed to human progress.

The effect now is completely different. From just patent licensing and cooperative production of peripheral products, everyone has benefited greatly. Zhou Zhi even needs to build a company to "digest the profits" and turn it into a model of one-stop production, academia and research.

As the saying goes, "Eaters have short mouths, and takers have short hands." The people present here basically eat and take at the same time. They usually make jokes and ridicule, and when the discussion of ideas is intense, there is no problem in slapping the table and hitting the bench, but everyone is talking about the matter. , we really only talk about right and wrong, not winning or losing, the purpose is to find the best solution to the problem, and then it is a matter of finding a place to have dinner after the meeting.None of them are stupid. The main reason is that they have been skilful in guerrilla warfare before and are not used to the regular army's positional warfare mode. After the first phase of training at Hanwen Daziku, in Zhou Zhi's words, it is like changing a pig. I have learned it step by step.

In addition, the current situation is urgent and there is no way for everyone to be free and undisciplined.

Zhou Zhi wanted to promote this work several times before, but he couldn't bear the tight task and had not developed habits. He often had to make compromises and make himself tired. Those who handed over to the software team were perfunctory and nonsense. The thing is modified so that it can enter the project document library.

In fact, this thing also has routines, and templates can be applied. In order to teach these pigs, Zhou Zhi has summarized the templates of various project files, so that the pigs can use it and feel almost like programming, convenient and fast.

It's almost time to take action now. Next, Zhou Zhi turned out several templates of process documents for everyone and gave everyone another training.

In fact, this is already introducing the famous "object-oriented" development concept of later generations.

In the early implementation of software engineering projects, it was difficult to use design documents to restrict programmers from coding. As long as the decomposition requirements could be completed, programmers could write code however they liked.

This will bring about many problems, such as inconsistent software design style; incoherent readability; irregular code style and structure; even comments are written in different ways, with the main focus being a mess.

In the past, as long as the software engineering team said "too busy", this part of the work was the responsibility of the supervision team, and there was nothing they could do no matter how angry they were.

Fortunately, based on comparison, at least the two groups of Hu Lidong and An Chunjia have gradually developed a thoughtful and demanding style. Hu Tianyu's group is not close, but overall it is also improving.

This is very important, because in the end, it's all about efficiency.

To give a simple example, each programmer has his or her own habits regarding database access methods. In order to improve personal efficiency, most programmers will write their own access interface and set their own parameters for accessing data by themselves.

But if there are too many people like this, the system's database access interface will be messed up. If a bug occurs, you don't know whose interface caused it.

To solve this problem, the best way is to find a dedicated programmer to write a database access interface that everyone thinks is good. All programmers will use this interface to access the database.

This saves other people’s time in writing interfaces and improves efficiency;
When a bug occurs, you can immediately know which program has the problem or improve efficiency;

The interface engineer can specialize in this program, and all issues related to data access will be handled by him. He will soon accumulate rich relevant experience, and then he will be able to solve problems with ease, which will still improve efficiency.

This is the "modularization" of the project. Each small module is called an "object" in the project. After the programming is split into object-oriented programming, all homogeneous work in a system theoretically only requires Once developed, a large amount of redundant work is no longer necessary, and efficiency is still improved.

Improve it a little here, improve it a little there. Taken together, it’s amazing. Coupled with a good engineering management software, you can speed up the project by more than 60.00%, reduce the project cost by more than 40.00%, and increase collaboration by 70.00%. efficiency.

The Manhattan Project in the United States relied on this advanced model to quickly surpass Germany, which had been ahead for several years in research and development, and finally planted two mushrooms in its small life.
