A recall into past
At high school, as a student, I’m overwhelmed at study and assignmments. However, we have a computer in class, and at free time, we can play game on it, which the class manager will turn a blind eye.
Well I was also interested in it then. I would download and install all kinds of tools, often causing the computer to crash. This brings many trouble to teachers and the computer manager. I was still very embarassed when thinking this now.
But now it’s going better - because I have learned the techniques to troubleshoot it.
Windows internals
Mark was a genius! His tools and videos are super helpful.
Well, in university, I fixed computer often by myself - either install new RAM, or reinstall Windows.
I recalled that a female classmate has some problems with her computer, and I helped her reinstall Windows. I asked for the Windows liscense fee; she paid it and also bought me a bag of snacks. She is also very good at computer, and can write good algorithms.
The way forward
There are many categories about computer - software engineering is just a small part.
Many people is using Signal Processing - a subfield of Electrical Engineering - to make a living. They do recording, live chat, and monitoring-related stuffs.
Also, today is the International Women’s Day.
We should encourage women to step into computer area. That ensure equal human rights and creates a better society. Also, I have more chance to get a wife…
Well in China things are still very bad. I don’t know someone who is good at computer since working. (I learned myself in one job, while the senior female worker is supposed to teach me. In another job, when I asked questions, the senior female worker get angry and fired me.)
