Private open source biography? ¶
background¶
When I was a junior in high school, when I volunteered for the Yahoo! directory to maintain links to Japanese manga resources, I had already been exposed to open source culture 😉
However, officially realizing that I am working hard to grow through open source community resources,
Had to start learning PHP in 2000…
It has been 22 years in the blink of an eye, and without realizing it, I have become a standard community “grandmother”;
How did this change come about? What is the day-to-day life like as a member of the unrecognized ordinary open source community?
goal¶
At the suggestion of Netcom, we are going to review the 22 years of open source life through a series of private notes. The possible effects are as follows:
- Have a timeline of all your key actions
- There is a timeline corresponding to all open source related software/communities/works/…
- Technicians who are impressed by various scenes can also complete the correspondence on the timeline
Use this as the basic material to help other people who are interested, and also correspond to the people and things of the year…
PS :
Because of the long history, the names of the companies/departments/persons involved may be obscure.
It can only be said that it is completed according to private memory and should not be used as official history;
trace¶
So, how did it all start?
Looking back now to observe myself back then, it is very likely that when I read Verne’s science fiction novels in elementary school, the FLOSS germ had already been buried; one of the key novels is:
Mysterious Island/Three Volumes (1979. China Youth Publishing House)
It can be said that it is the earliest contact with the novel of the cultivation department. It only relies on a few coins that are unintentionally retained on the body and the knowledge in the mind.
It is possible to rebuild the industrial base of modern civilization on a “desert island” from scratch,
It’s so cool ,
Among them various basic mathematics/physics/chemistry/.. derivation/experimental process,
Greatly shocked his original knowledge tree,
From then on, I firmly believe: “Learn physics and chemistry well, and the world can do whatever you want”;
In a blink of an eye, I went to the university, and it turned out to be a science and engineering department. I entered the computer department of Jiangsu Petrochemical College (now: Changzhou University) and became the first class of students;
The curriculum of the year is standard: “Computer Science and Applications”,
It’s just that science is more important and application is less, so that when I graduate, I don’t know how to complete a software from 0.
At the beginning of my junior year, when I assisted the college in building the campus network, I came into contact with IBM minicomputers.
The installation is a UNIX system, which is different from the daily Windows completion,
Similar to the backward DOS system, I feel very curious, why is this?
Tracked down some manuals and the only material in the library, vaguely felt there was a different world outside the known commercial software;
Before graduating from the senior year, the graduation thesis of the elective course in the history of science now points to the FLOSS cultural ecology:
Exploring the role of traditional Chinese thought in the information society
When graduating, students with strong C++ went to Nanjing, and students with graduation certificates went to other industries;
In fact, the choice of computer was originally for 3D animation production, so I first entered an advertising company as an intern,
Use self-taught Photoshop/Illustrator/… design software, first take a job, and then continue to self-taught software such as 3D MAX ,
Then I found out that it is not that simple, and there are a lot of manual processes, under the condition of limited computer performance,
If you want to complete a reliable animation short film, it is a project calculated in years, and the corresponding hardware, any Macintosh will cost tens of thousands.
It is really unimaginable for myself with a monthly salary of only a few hundred yuan;
So, give up the fantasy, go back to the software industry, and temporarily enter a communications company,
For enterprise intranet integration,
The boss of the company is more open-minded,
Recruit me as a network engineer reserve,
But the company’s main business is program-controlled network engineering,
Planning software engineering shifts, but not knowing what type of software market to enter;
Therefore, the things implemented in this company may be as follows:
- Cooperate with the implementation engineer to complete the company’s intranet configuration, the direct benefit is that the printer can be used remotely
- Cooperate with the agency rights negotiated by the boss, go to Chengdu to complete training, independently operate “China C Network”/Changzhou secondary station, complete regular data synchronization and system upgrades
- Self-taught Flash/Fireworks/Dreamweaver three suites, designed and completed a full Flash enterprise official website for the company, but unfortunately it was not finally launched…
Among them, Flash programming is the first time to have contact with open documents.
Have a general understanding of the technical documentation infrastructure,
How to quickly get the function description needed for current programming,
And how to make debug space, print the necessary debug information where the final work can’t see it…
One year after graduation, through self-study, I really understand what software is and how to build software;
It can be said that the first 20 years of preparation,
It is a necessary condition for entering the open source world when you go to work in Shanghai next…
