From scrap mecha to sci-fi heaven

Chapter 57 Software Engineering

Then, for more than ten days, Lin Yu spent his time in a stop-and-go pattern.

While clearing out the remaining contacts and subordinates of the Seou organization, he modified the flying general and designed the Chunyang Emperor.

In fact, the modification and design of the armor are not bad. After all, the ideas are clear, and the fourth-level mecha engineering also covers all aspects of knowledge. There is no lack of ideas and foundations, and everything is extremely smooth.

But this software system is really too exhausting.

To upgrade the bionic body of the second-generation armor, the entire control system of the flying general must be greatly modified. Even if the intelligent control system of the steel wing is copied with the help of Xue Siqiao, there are too many places to modify.

This is just the flying general.

The Chunyang Emperor armor and the Tianjian ultra-long-distance support platform are even more daunting.

The Chunyang Emperor armor is a flying exoskeleton. Even if there is the flying experience of the Chunyang Emperor personality as a reference, the related flight control system and stability system are indispensable. Even if some ready-made aircraft source codes are used for modification, it is extremely complicated.

There are also command guidance systems for missiles, and even more complex Tiandun Sword Jue systems...

Although mecha engineering already includes some electronic information skills, the degree of brain power consumption makes Lin Yu want to die.

"No, no, I quit. I'm a hacker, not a programmer!"

After being exploited by Lin Yu for more than ten days, Xue Siqiao was the first to complain and announce that she would quit.

"This programmer is really not a human job."

Lin Yu was so tired that his eyes were blank, and his eyes completely lost their luster. Facing Xue Siqiao's quitting, he actually felt a strong sense of empathy.

You know, Xue Siqiao was only responsible for network attack and defense modules such as firewalls.

But he was working on several system projects alone.

Every day he was so tired that he didn't know how many hundreds of millions of brain cells died.

In order to write these codes, he now even got independent software engineering skills, and even upgraded to level two.

"Skill: Software Engineering"

"Level: LV2"

"Introduction: A discipline that studies the knowledge and technology related to the construction, design, development methods, testing, maintenance, etc. of various computer software."

"Upgrade requirements-Practice makes perfect: Complete the development of a medium-sized software project without using copying, pasting, searching, and intelligent assistance."

Practice makes perfect. This upgrade requirement can only be said to be how difficult it is for anyone who has typed code.

The prohibition of copying and searching is a life-threatening restriction.

If not, his software engineering skills would have been upgraded to LV3.

But...even LV3 is useless.

Mecha engineering actually comes with some software engineering technology. Software engineering has only become more perfect on this, involving more aspects and more experience.

But no matter how high the skill level is, the code still has to be typed by yourself in the end.

Some simple codes and even software projects can now be directly generated by special AI. After a lot of source code training, AI can fully generate code according to demand.

But that is limited to more common conventional software.

Too complicated and convoluted, firstly, it is difficult for AI to fully understand and think logically, and the generated code often has errors or is irrelevant.

Secondly, many software and systems do not just run on computers, but often involve various aspects such as mechanics, electronics, mechanics, etc. In addition to code, they also involve other disciplines, requiring more complex thinking and even creation, which is not something that ordinary AI can do.

Of course, there is the most important thing.

This type of generative AI is essentially based on the training of machine learning algorithms. Its mastery and improvement of functions require the support of a large amount of training data. The so-called generation is actually based on various example templates written by predecessors, modified and pieced together.

And some more advanced and complex technologies, such as the fourth-generation drone matrix system of the Stan Group, various intelligent systems and firewall systems, etc., are all cash cows for various company groups, and it is impossible to open source the core code.

Without corresponding training data and template references, this type of generative AI cannot generate related things, let alone create new things that have never existed.

Therefore, if you really want to write these complex programs, it will eventually fall on people.

But this job is simply not for people.

Anyway, Lin Yu felt like he was about to lose half his life after these days.

Now he deeply understood that human energy is indeed limited.

Relying on the system panel, he may be omnipotent, but he can't do everything by himself.

Even if he is proficient in everything, he can only do one thing at the same time.

"I say, are you too stingy? You don't pay me a penny and you squeeze me madly. You are a mecha driver or even a mecha manufacturer, can't you hire a few programmers?"

At this moment, for the sake of his own life, Xue Siqiao had to suggest that Lin Yu find a scapegoat.

"Do you think I don't want to? This is a wasteland, where can you let me find a programmer?"

Lin Yu rolled his eyes weakly.

People in the wasteland have to run around for food, clothing, housing and transportation as soon as they open their eyes. It is difficult to guarantee even the basic order around them, let alone education.

Most people can complete basic education because the gathering place has complete facilities and their own family conditions are not bad.

If he wants to learn more advanced professional skills, it may be difficult to find someone to teach him.

It may not be impossible for a phoenix to fly out of a chicken coop purely by self-discipline and self-study, but it is definitely very rare.

In this case, he can find a software engineer.

"How about outsourcing?"

Xue Siqiao reluctantly proposed again.

"Sorry, I'm a poor man with only 300,000 in my pocket. I can't afford the outsourcing project."

Lin Yu spread his hands.

300,000 is not enough to hire some outsourcing help.

Of course, if he really wants to get money, he can still get it.

The real reason is that the Flying General Armor and the Pure Yang Emperor Armor are the foundation of his life.

Even if it is the most trivial place, he doesn't want to let people who don't know him at all to intervene.

Find an outsourcing company, and I'm afraid I won't be able to find anyone if something goes wrong.

"You only have 300,000 in your pocket?"

Lin Yu's words shocked Xue Siqiao.

A mecha master, plus a mecha engineer who builds his own mecha, must have a net worth of several million, not to mention tens of millions or hundreds of millions, right?

The latter is easy to say, but a mecha master, not to mention supporting a large mecha team, just the mecha maintenance costs, the purchase of various equipment and replacement parts, which one is not a big spender?

You told me you only have 300,000?
