After the layoffs, I became a tech godfather

Chapter 20 Where can I find such a good thing?
At this time, Han Zijie had not yet gotten off work. In the Internet industry, overtime is the norm, and 996 is considered good. Some companies even require flexible working hours based on 996.

The flexible working system means that if you are one minute late for work, you will be considered late or leave early, and your attendance score will be deducted by 200 yuan. And the time to leave work must be flexible, and you need to be on call at any time.

The department where Han Zijie was at this time was even more excessive. On the basis of the company's so-called "flexibility", the department director played "troublemaking" to the fullest -

Sometimes, even when there is nothing to do, he will occasionally @ everyone in the group and ask them to reply “received”, and this time may even be in the middle of the night.

When someone responded, he still argued: "What do you know? This is me @ you, what if it's an important customer? I'm reminding you to always be prepared, obey orders, and be tense at all times, understand?"

"Fuck the strict rules and regulations and the constant tension!" However, Han Zijie could do nothing except gritting his teeth and cursing in his heart.

Three months ago, he was laid off by his last company and hadn’t found a suitable job for a whole month and a half. With mortgages, car loans, and supporting a wife, parents, and children, men of this age have no right to complain and can only work hard.

It's not easy to get here, and I have a place to stay. I can't leave. I have to stay and hold on no matter how hard I try.

"Zijie, Zijie," Han Zijie was staring at the pile of shit left by his predecessors, when he suddenly heard the guy working next door calling him, "What's up? Are you worried about this pile of shit code?"

Isn't that worrying?
This mountain of shit is not an ordinary mountain of shit. The project he took over was originally developed in 2006, using ASP code at that time.

After several changes of ownership and upgrades, the system has been written in different styles from different periods, and the relationship between the modules is a mess.

Moreover, many codes are not commented and are stacked one on top of another, which makes people feel extremely dizzy.

It has only been less than a month since he came here, but Han Zijie feels like he has lived ten years less.

"Do you have any good ideas?" The guy next door was named Zhao Zixuan, born in 02, and just graduated this year. He was ten years younger than me, and they were in charge of the same project.

“Beep, beep, beep… a divine weapon!”

Zhao Zixuan took out a mobile phone, which seemed to be a Huawei Mate 60 Pro, and turned on the camera directly to face Han Zijie's computer screen:

"Xiaosha, Xiaosha, help me check what functions are implemented in lines 18 to 62? Please add comments to the important nodes!"

"Hmm? Shouldn't the Huawei phone belong to Xiaoyi?" Han Zijie was puzzled: "How..."

"It's not a mobile AI assistant, it's an APP now." Han Zijie wanted to ask more but was interrupted by Zhao Zixuan: "Look first."

The phone screen first recognized the entire code, and then wrote comments line by line:

The first line: // defines a method called A.

Han Zijie: "Just the name of this method, plus the basic level, it would make anyone vomit blood."

Line 2: // defines a variable called x.

Han Zijie: "On this page alone, there are 7 variables named x!"

……

Line 16: //The variable A here is a public static global variable, shared by all users, which may easily lead to BUGs in personal user center data.

"Huh? What's going on?"

Han Zijie looked at this batch of codes in order to find a bug in the personal center where the data was not refreshed. Did he find it directly?
Public static global variables mean that the data is displayed as other people's data!
After some checking, I found that it was indeed the case. After removing "Public Static", the function immediately returned to normal.

Nowadays, AI is becoming very popular, and there are countless tools that claim to be able to write code, but in practice, not many of them are really useful.

In particular, most AIs suffer from paranoia, and they always imagine properties, methods, and features that do not actually exist, which causes compilation failures and requires them to be modified one by one.

As we all know, modifying the garbage code written by others is sometimes even more troublesome than rewriting it yourself. As for throwing some buggy code to AI and asking it to debug and fix the loopholes, that is even more impossible.

If that's the case, you might as well find a three-year-old to point it out to you, because it's all the same nonsense anyway.

However, look at this little sand...

"This ability..." Han Zijie bit his lip: "Isn't it outrageous?"

Han Zijie, who had been complaining about the poorly written code, suddenly got excited: "What kind of app is this? I want to download one too!"

"You can't download it. Only Huawei phones have native Hongmeng software." Zhao Zixuan explained:
“I saw a lot of its videos a few days ago. It can automatically post ads on WeChat Moments, automatically block Weibo posts from people you don’t like, and it’s very smart and can distract you from many problems.

"When I wanted to download it later, I couldn't get it. I just took a look and found that it was officially launched. I tried to let it read our code, and it was really useful!

"As long as we send the code file to it, it can annotate every sentence one by one, and sort out the various calling relationships very smoothly. This alone is of great help to us.

"What do you think? Do you want to get a Mate70?" Zhao Zixuan began to recommend his colleagues to buy Huawei.

"It's too expensive. I think this app is native to Hongmeng and should be available. I'll get the cheapest one and go back to buy a standard version of Mate60."

Life is not easy for middle-aged men. If this thing was not really useful, Han Zijie would never spend the money to buy it. He would still use a mobile phone worth more than a thousand yuan.

……

At noon today, the official version of the Fingersplitters APP was launched. As soon as it was launched, a large number of people flocked to it instantly. In just half a day, the number of installations reached more than 500,000.

Unlike the "first try" period, when all bloggers followed the official promotion and tried to post in bulk to their Moments, this group of users each has their own needs and their own way of playing.

Everyone who downloads it will of course try to see if it can do the tedious work for them.

Doesn’t it mean that all the tedious work can be left to Xiaosha, and you can just enjoy yourself?

Then try it!

For example, for Zhao Zixuan, code analysis is the most urgent function in his work.

And the others are different too—

For example, in a certain company, the administrative staff received a big job. They had to input a large number of paper documents, tens of thousands of them, into the management background one by one and add them to the system.

In the past, it was rare for a group of people to work on this job for several days.

Now, the unified scan is converted into a photo, and the management background is opened with a Huawei tablet. An example is added, telling it: "Do as I do."

Then just prop the tablet up and put it there, eat some melon seeds and watch Xiaosha on the screen help you operate step by step.

"This feeling is really great!" An administrative staff member who had just eaten sunflower seeds and was thirsty stood up and stretched, and took a cup of water, muttering: "Only sixteen dollars a month, it's worth it!"

Great value, that’s not just what one person says, just look at the payment rate and you’ll know.

With 560,000 installations, the number of paying users has exceeded 200,000, and this has only been half a day.

I believe that after experiencing it for a period of time, even if the payment rate does not reach 100%, it will not be much different.

After all, the basic version can only answer questions, but cannot help you with work.

And for only sixteen dollars a month, you can hire an assistant who is willing to work hard and never complain. Where can you find such a good thing?
Just that Wen Xin Yi Yan thing costs 59 a month!
