Riding the wind of rebirth

Chapter 1883 Neither Independent nor Thinking

If this intermediate plan is beyond Zhou Zhi's understanding, then if it were today, everyone would probably think that Mai Xiaomiao's advanced plan is a bit too advanced and exaggerated.

Mai Xiaomiao proposed that the data in the system should be "unalterable", that is, any user's activities in the system, no matter when they occur, will be recorded and cannot be modified or covered up by subsequent means. As long as this is guaranteed, combined with the Clover Group's now very complete post-inspection system, any hacker's behavior of entering the system can be discovered in time.

Since hackers are inherently "illegal", they will not be able to modify the data in the system's tamper-proof data stream.

The creation of users and the acquisition of permissions is actually a form of data modification, which completely eliminates the possibility of hackers destroying the system.

But can a system that makes data “unalterable” really exist?

If we ask most of today's information technology engineers to discuss this issue, the answer would be no. However, the model proposed by Mai Xiaomiao was fully realized decades later.

This is "decentralization", "distributed storage", and "peer-to-peer transmission".

The system of Clover Group has now been discreted into a system cluster composed of various systems, which already has a point-to-point transmission protocol and consensus mechanism. Since such a mechanism already exists, Mai Xiaomiao's idea is completely opposite to the cluster transformation of Clover Group currently led by Zhou Zhi. He cancelled the "cluster switching bus" idea designed by Zhou Zhi for the system and simply made the system cluster more discrete, eventually forming a "data link" technology without a data center, which cannot be tampered with, is transparent, secure, and has programmable capabilities.

Zhou Zhi couldn't help but be dumbfounded. If this thing is further developed, wouldn't it become the famous "blockchain" in later generations?
The biggest role of this technology is not to improve the security of the system. Its core lies in the balanced distribution of computing power and an unchangeable electronic ledger.

With the former, all devices with computing power in the system can be integrated through the network to form a "supercomputer" and "superstorage". With the latter, we will have the most secure and reliable transaction record system, which is very useful for many systems such as finance, supply chain, and logistics.

Both the former and the latter are important breakthroughs in information technology and can provide many very forward-looking applications.

Mai Xiaomiao wants to apply it to improve the security of the Clover Group's system cluster, which is simply like using a nuclear bomb to kill a mosquito.

"Hey," Feng Xueshan had already reheated the grilled small intestines and called Mai Xiaomiao: "The food is grilled, would you like to have some too?"

Mai Xiaomiao raised her head pitifully, but looked at Zhou Zhi.

"Eat it if you want. Don't you like it?" Zhou Zhi's attention was still on the information: "This thing seems to have something..."

"Come and have some food too." Feng Xueshan said to Zhou Zhi, "Everything is fine, stop making noise!"

Mai Xiaomiao was already enjoying the barbecue. The grilled small intestines were oily and moist, and the shell, which had already softened a little, became crispy again after being grilled by Feng Xueshan. Needless to say, the taste was so delicious.

"You found me through technical means, so you won unfairly." Seeing Zhou Zhi coming over, Mai Xiaomiao was still struggling with the previous topic: "Regarding the suggestions on preventing empty command sleds, I left a message in your system, and it was you who did not correct it in time." "Where did you leave the message?" Zhou Zhi also picked up a grilled small intestine. The two girls looked delicate and the barbecue disappeared very quickly, so they quickly joined in the fight for food.

"That user is restricted by visitor permissions, and there are not many places where he can leave messages..."

"You wrote the advice on how to prevent the null command sled in the cafeteria's advice for the cafeteria chef. No one would know it!" Zhou Zhi was so amused that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "And I didn't win unfairly. Who says that catching hackers can only be done through technical means? Your thinking is rigid and belongs to science students. I am a liberal arts student. This solution, sorry, is exactly what we liberal arts students are good at."

Zhou Zhi is not bragging. The way to solve problems in the humanities is to take all factors into comprehensive consideration, with conditions as the main factor and logic as the auxiliary factor. Even logic can often be replaced by experience.

This is not the case with science, which places the most emphasis on logic. Insufficient prerequisites do not matter. Instead, they often meet the requirements for simplified conditions and can use logic to deduce results.

Although this result may be completely wrong even if the logic is correct if the conditions are insufficient.

Although these two paths seem contradictory, they are actually unified. They are just methodologies for solving problems under imperfect conditions before science and technology have developed to perfection.

Nowadays, there is actually a trend of converging between the two theories. For example, in big data and artificial intelligence, the logical process implemented by the computer system can actually be regarded as a "black box". What humans need to pay attention to is only the completeness of the input and the correctness of the output.

This line of thinking is actually very close to the method humans use to study social problems, that is, the liberal arts method.

The logical structure of data is divided into linear structure and nonlinear structure. Linear structure means a node element with only one direct predecessor and one direct successor. In the minds of most people, especially those big-breeders who make fun of China for having no logic, logic can only be linear logic, because the basic mathematics, physics and chemistry they can access are all representatives of this linear logic.

Nonlinear logic refers to the logical phenomenon that a node element has multiple direct predecessors and direct successors. The most obvious example is people's appreciation of aesthetics, literature, and art. The reason why you think a painting is good or bad is definitely not a simple linear logic, but the common result of the action of many predecessor conditions.

The Chinese have an innate advantage in understanding complex phenomena such as nonlinear logic, but the diodes' thinking is unable to comprehend such advanced logical structures and thinking principles. They ignore China's achievements in mathematics, engineering, literature, art, and music over thousands of years, and only recognize that the linear logic that gave wings to the Industrial Revolution is logic, while ignoring the more complex nonlinear logic in the human brain.

The result is that people claim to think independently, but in fact they are neither independent nor think.

When Zhou Zhi read the article proposed by Mai Xiaomiao, his thoughts wandered.

What is mentioned in this paper has actually surpassed the three major research achievements of her mentor Cai Shaotang. Although the basis is still those three theories, it is already "standing on the shoulders of giants."

"Let's talk about compensation." Zhou Zhi had secretly made up his mind to blackmail the girl in front of him, and it would be best if he could tie her to Clover's chariot.
