Hello everyone, I am Ouyang. This year happens to be Ouyang's 30th year, though not standing. This post to talk about my journey from aArsenal Electrical Engineeruntil (a time)Programmer at a well-known Internet companyDuring this time IThe guy who eats.What are they all about.
During the Arsenal
Ouyang studied "Electrical Engineering and Automation" in college, and after graduation, he entered a military factory in his hometown, and became an engineer.Electrical Engineer.. The location of the arsenal was in a town, and the"Prosperity."Those two words don't go together at all, the kind of thing you can't even buy groceries for in the afternoon if you want to cook for yourself.
2016 is still considered the dividend period of the Internet, 360 lines, lines are turning to the Internet. Influenced by this trend Ouyang in the military factory also can not stay, want to go outsidebustling worldTake a look.
So Ouyang spent a huge amount of money and bought a 2 dollar Dark Horse front-end training course video on Taobao. At that time, I only had in my hand a 3,000 dollar laptop bought by my family in college, which is what IThe first guy to eat.。
2 Dollar Training Course Video + 3k computer(installing WebStorm was stuck), and a few months later got me successfully started in front-end and landed my first front-end job.
First front-end job
Wages also went up when I went from the military factory to an Internet company, so I started tolit. like the new, and hate the old (idiom); fig. enamored with the new and bored with the oldI've got it. Started to resent the old dude for being stuck writing code, stuck playing games, stuck everywhere anyway. So bit the bullet and spent a month's salary on a7kAround the computer, which is what IThe second eating utensil.。
leading Internet company
Because the first company salary increase is too slow, more than 1 year later Ouyang jumped ship. Into a certaincentral enterpriseEstablished Internet company, six months later a well-known Internet company scooped up our entire team.
During this time I realized that for front-end engineers a single screen is a bit insufficient, you need to write code while looking at the page effect. This eliminates the need to cut the page around, so I spent a few hundred dollars later on a cheap monitor, which is myThe third eating utensil.。
Then I realized that all the bigwigs in the team were using it.Mac Book Pro, Ouyang is not considered a big brother, but he does possess the heart to become one. At the time, he thought that he had to have the same equipment as the big boys, so he bit the bullet and bought aM1 Pro. This is me.The fourth eating utensil., has been in service until now.
monitor (computer)
I didn't think it was a problem when I used to use a Windows computer with an external monitor, because both were not very clear, and no comparison hurts. After switching to MBP, due to the super clear display of the Mac, drawing a page while looking at the Mac screen and looking at the screen of the external monitor, it's likelit. one above and the other below (idiom); fig. different situations。
I often have to stay up late at night, but my wife has to sleep again. For the sake of family harmony, so Ouyang often continue coding with the lights off. but that cheap monitor of mine is particularly harsh to look at at night, making my eyes, which are already close to 500 degrees, worse.
There's also the fact that the external monitor screen is wide enough horizontally, but too short vertically. Seeing the code above, you can't see the code below, and it's really unfriendly to a middle-aged man whose memory is gradually starting to fail.
Without a doubt, Ouyang is happy with the new again and decided to replace that cheap monitor. With the lesson learned from the last time, this time Ouyang decided to do it in one step.
Why do you say it's a lesson? Because the last time I replaced the 7k windows computer is not on the top of the list, used to sell and too bad, and compared with the Mac is too far, can only be idle at home. Sometimes I regret why I didn't just replace it with a Mac, but had to waste the money.
After many comparisons and recommendations from some professional friends, I finally got this BenQ monitor, model no.BenQ RD280UThat's me.The fifth eating utensil.。
Why did Ouyang choose this monitor?
Because he is.The world's first monitor designed for programmers, the perfect solution to all my pain points.
The first thing is that he's very sharp, the clarity is about as good as the monitor screen that came with my Mac.
In addition to clarity he has a coding mode, which when turned on makes the code look clearer and less reflective and blurry.
This is a BenQ monitor:
This one is a former cheap monitor:
There is also the fact that this monitor comes with two encoding modes, which areCoding - Dark Color Themecap (a poem)Coding - Bright Color Theme. What's even more awesome is that these two modes can be used on vscode or webstorm's owndark coloredorbright colorThe theme is enhanced in the color piece, so the syntax highlighting of the code is clearer.
And it also supports customizing the adjustment of the corresponding parameters, so that I can use two different themes for daytime and nighttime respectively. The dark color theme perfectly solved my night coding problem and saved my poor eyes.
What's more, he also supports backlighting, so it's really super restful when you're coding at night. The light is also adjustable.Adjust brightness, color temperature, light mode。
The picture above is one I took at night with the lights off.
The final thing is that this horizontal to vertical ratio is3:2(used form a nominal expression)28The screen is really super big and I figured out the same code is bigger than my16:9 of the monitor is able to see 10 more lines of code.
This one only sees 315 lines of code:
This one was able to see 325 lines of code:
And it's really super enjoyable to use him when studying Japanese, it's big and clear, even better than a Mac screen.
In addition to this monitor has some other features, such as up and down left and right adjustments, owl mode (automatically adjusts the screen brightness according to the environment), with the software can be set up with keyboard shortcuts to operate the screen hardware features (super awesome), configure the programming touch keys, personalized shortcuts.
summarize
To this year's work for 8 years, this monitor is Ouyang allThe guy who eats.The most satisfying inside. Why?Mac computerNot the most satisfied? Because he's really too expensive, and the price/performance ratio is quite a bit worse compared to the monitor.
