IT人日記 – 為美國而悲哀

Can Life be a Compromise ? 生活可以妥協嗎 ?

Can Press Media still be believable ? 如今媒體仍然可以相信嗎 ?

Hong Kong’s freedom and the rule of law have been violently deprived by the China Government. China’s lies and fraud have already very well-known in the world. It is surprise that the next victim will be the United States. The voting and falsehood in the U.S. presidential election were so obvious that the China Government’s penetration is really at stake. Hope that the United States can overcome the China Government. God Bless US!

香港的自由和法治被中共暴力剝奪,謊話和做假已是世界知名,想不到下一個受害會是美國, 美國總統大選的投票種票和做假真令人目定口呆,所以中共的滲透真是利害,希望美國好運,可以戰勝中共吧!

IT人日記 – 我對香港未來的看法

當管治者有無限權力,可操控所有,以致改變制度而偏向自己時 ,他(她)所管治的結果,便取決於他的能力和心意,經過過去一年的事情,已認知到香港管治的方向以及無能,只懂出賣香港來討好中共,如果政權不變,香港的未來只會是倒退,將可能成為中國的二、三線城市,更甚或是新疆的模樣,真的並不樂觀,只有求神保佑香港吧!

本人由以前是 IT區域經理, 現在已降級到系統分析員,我要重操二十多年前的職級和工作,工資下跌大半,而且再看不到將來有發展的空間,所以我的移民意向越來越強烈,希望之後可在另一天空下重新開始,或是安享晚年吧!

如果網友有移居英國或澳洲的資料或建議,歡迎PM跟本交流研究,謝謝!

Diary of IT Man – Quantum Computer will be maintstream of next generation of computer

Recently, I started to learn quantum engineering, quantum computer will become maintstream in IT development by 2023 because its performance exponentially faster than current computer. Currently it is using in field of on encryption, protein folding simulated, new medicine and treatments, etc. Its programming technique is very different from current one, I just finished a certification of Quantum Computing & Quantum Physics course, which taught about Quantum Cryptography, and Quantum Physics with Microsoft Q# (Q Sharp) & IBM Quantum Experience.

How fast are Quantum Computers? A 64-bit quantum computer can process 36 billion billion bytes of information in each step of computation. Compare that to the 8 bytes that your home computer can process in each step of computation!

Comparison of MySQL and MongoDB

MySQL Db is a structure Db for traditional application usage (or old application) such as ERP system, CRM system, etc. MongoDB is a non-structure Db for nowadays big application such as Instagram, etc.

Characteristic comparison as below:

MySQL: More Mature, Table Structure, Requires a Schema, Great with Relationships, Scales Vertically.

MongoDb: Shiny and New, Document Structure, More Flexible to Changes, Not Great with Complex Relationships, Horizontally Scalable.
