I recently read that Lavender wrote"Written on the threshold of 40. It was more or less emotional until I saw the first nine written by"The Unemployed 40-Year-Old Programmer, What's the Future? , a little taut, if Lavender writes a little lyrical, a little far from the heart, and the situation of the first nine is simply like a mirror into the reality, mapping out the future of the possible difficulties encountered.

Many are thinking, "Could the living really be suffocated by urine?" Feeling that the bridge to the bed is naturally straight, anyway, there is always a way out - do outsourcing, go to the piggy bank to take jobs, do e-commerce, make videos, you can always get some money.

It's a bit realistic and a bit unrealistic at the moment. Unemployment is realistic, trying to make money is unrealistic.

Why do I say so, programmers more or less stereotypes, career path more or less a single, in addition to ctrl + c, ctrl + v to fool the boss, it is estimated that there is not much bragging, after all, on the line will be exposed, review but also to be criticized, or even rolled up to go away. Look at sales, look at the product, one can brag about B, one can "draw a big cake", the programmer in addition to the physical strength of a good point, can back a black pot, other than it seems not much "survival" skills.

Looking back on their own experience over the years: in the same party know net dry, North Founder dry, went out to do the game, can not help but come back to 51talk ready to work hard a, but was the state a paper decree, apply for compensation to go, now in the small company met, to be honest, the epidemic of logs have not been so miserable, the words how to say, see him up high building, see him feast guests, see his building collapsed, see him (TA) The building is collapsing, seeing his (TA) building collapsing, seeing my building collapsing too .....

Reality, it is really hard to see the face of the shit is hard to eat, really is a hideous face, bitter and difficult to swallow, pondered a circle, asked themselves a long time, repeatedly asked themselves what they can do behind, often and colleagues and friends at dinner would like to do something together, scratching his scalp, can not think of what can be done, there is no idea, headache, I guess we are the same, in addition to jerking the code, what else can be done? Some people say stalls selling fruit, stomping car delivery, delivery, run drip can be, first of all, not to mention itself do this now are not enough to eat, on the psychological level can you take off the "Kong Yiji" shirt, can not fall off the face of the skin, and then, on the half-crippled body of the programmers, to send a single overtime enough to pay for it, not to mention earning money! The programmer's half-crippled body.

Of course, just think never dry, do not try is certainly not, how to practice practice to know whether they are in the end two, five, eighty thousand or three, six, nine cakes.

I've mulled over a few paths, and I'm not sure if I can get through:

  • Go home and take over the family business.
    ** A fictional scenario where you go home and inherit millions and live a rich life?
    --The reality is that the only valuable old sow in the family has been sold, and the son is afraid that his father's business can only drink the northwest wind.

  • Partner up and save a small company to take on projects
    ** A few friends join forces and start with a project that can last 3-5 months and work backwards and forwards, so it may not be impossible.
    -Honestly, having a clear source of projects is key, otherwise it's easy to get stuck in a funding chain.

  • Technology Realization
    ** Make a product out of the technology, such as middleware, a reporting system, or a BI tool, and sell versions to make money?
    -Masters may be able to make it, but most lack the resources and markets to make it difficult.

  • Change career to industry, open a store or restaurant, what store, hardware, hotel, restaurant
    ** It looks easy, but there's a tuition fee for every line of work. If you have someone to lead the way, you may be able to do so with less effort.
    -Industry is not as simple as it seems, a little carelessness, the loss may be all your savings and time.

To put it bluntly, their ability is not enough, the ability is enough, more people are looking for you to invest, expect you to take him to fly. The ability is not enough, just meticulously meticulously, meticulously whining, off the scalp.

Peers of the article, also read a lot, even headlines, jitterbugs have defined themselves as a failure of the category, pushed a lot, there are successful, there are failures, the future of the road, perhaps there is no "standard answer". Whether it is to continue to adhere to the technical route, or transition to try other areas, all need to find a suitable position in reality. Each road may be full of unknowns and challenges, the only certainty is to keep trying and adjusting.
