Write some code, do some design, take a look at products.
The world is so big, let's play more.
Desmond (the name of the protagonist in the Assassin's Creed trilogy) quietly opened his blog, a small blog that couldn't be any smaller.
He thought that here he could freely share/write things he likes or considers "correct". No need to worry about grouping, no need to worry about formatting/length restrictions. Those who are interested will naturally come and take a look, while those who are not interested may just happen to pass by.
Of course, what is more meaningful to me may be having an environment for technical/knowledge output. Most of the time, I spend my time studying textbooks/coding, rarely having the time to organize and summarize like in high school. I always forget what I learned last week, what I learned last month, sometimes I need to find a small component or remember a principle I looked up before but don't know where to start. Therefore, I really hope to have such a small repository to record the bits and pieces on the road to becoming a baldy, accumulate some useful CS knowledge (not necessarily limited to this, maybe in the future I will gradually add things related to graphic design, music, animation, movies... maybe even some inspirational quotes left from high school or from books, hehehe). However, one concern is whether the promises made now can be fulfilled in the future. After all, I am not very sensitive to words (I failed the Chinese language exam in the college entrance examination) and rarely have the opportunity to express myself in writing, so... emmm... I hope I won't crash halfway... even if I'm lazy with updates.
Before, I also considered using note-taking software like OneNote to record these fragmented things in life and learning, but after thinking about it, I decided to create a blog. Putting aside other pros and cons, one characteristic that I think blogs have and other tools don't is sharing. Most of the time, the only person who reads the notes is oneself, assuming one still bothers to read them. But a blog, as a mini exhibition board/community, often allows personal accumulation to be shared with more people. I think this is very important in the field of CS (of course, it's the same in any field). It's easy to go astray when working in isolation, while progress is often easier to achieve through communication and sharing, helping people understand and master the details of a technology (TBH, my personal level is limited, and I'm quite introverted, so I'm still lacking in this aspect...). I hope to use this platform to push myself to communicate and share, and if possible, convey some of the adolescent ideals I adhere to, that would be even better ~
Perhaps someone will ask why not post on third-party blog platforms like Blog Garden or CSDN, which would save time and effort. I actually considered this option before, but I thought that most blog services are relatively rigid and cannot be customized as freely, so I decided to stick to the impulse of creating this handmade blog (although it's basically using various framework templates and tweaking parameters, at least I can decide the appearance of the webpage according to my own ideas. Coincidentally, I just learned a little bit of front-end development this semester, so starting a blog might be a decent way for me, a newbie with no project experience, to practice). I will update the technical details of setting up this blog and the technology stack used (currently using VuePress 2.x) in future posts, and continue to optimize the website's code. If I have time, I will continue to delve into front-end development (pretending to be professional, procrastinating >>>
Lastly, sometimes I can be quite emotional, so please go easy on me (I feel that my past social media posts are really "hard to look at"). I have always been sensitive and not very stable, prone to overthinking, and I am aware of the bad part hidden in my heart (from time to time, I feel guilty about some things from elementary school, middle school, and high school... I still dislike the people I dislike, and it's almost impossible to reconcile with those I've broken ties with, and some people's impression of me is forever stuck in the past). Besides that, there are many other things, the negative traits of my family, my own character flaws... in short, I'm so sorry that I could not have lived like the person you expect. I always feel like I am the person who hates myself the most in the world...
Sometimes what supports me to keep going may be ZL, YS... the words left in my mind from past encounters, words that are unlikely to be said to me by anyone else in the future. "Do a good job", "Love the people around you"... sometimes, even when I'm not very clear-headed, just thinking about these words can make me feel a bit more normal, and the darkness in my heart will temporarily recede...
Well, that's all for now. I'll save more words for later (now suddenly recalling the title, I realize it has deviated a bit too far, hello world might become hollow world...
BTW
If you happened to stumble upon this place, I hope you will like this blog :)
Sweet dreams ~
