Genius of the Rules-Style System

Chapter 197: Chapter 169: Flying an Airplane or Riding a Rocket?

The technology, code, and programs within the robot still have a long way to go before they can be commercialized. It’s not that the technology is substandard, but the programs are temporarily unable to be separated.

The current programs are machine languages, designed bit by bit. The internals seem very trivial, some are in other languages, running on the upper layer for simplicity, some are embedded in the system, working on the hardware level, while some are just instructions that call system functions.

It’s like a machine that has been manually assembled by humans.

While the machine runs fine, to realize mass production in factories, the various parts need to be clarified. On the robot, it means separating the different program and algorithm packages. Once this is done, the program and algorithm packages can be combined and run in most environments without being affected by the system environment.

This work is now Xu Chao’s responsibility.

Zhao Yi enjoys his last high school days and doesn’t want to spend time on basic work. Every day, his free time is spent leisurely drinking coffee, sitting in the living room watching TV, or reading and doing other things. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

One day, he even bought a stack of newspapers to read local print news.

Xu Chao, busy with his work, noticed the leisure of Zhao Yi and felt a bit sad. He even posted a question on a forum, "I work day and night, but the boss does nothing, just waiting to squeeze my surplus value, what should I do?"

The responses below were--

"Fire your boss!"

"Quit! A company with such a boss will go bankrupt soon!"

"Brother, escape the pit and be a free man, open an online store to make big money, why go to work!"

Xu Chao replied with a few words, "But I am still waiting for a bonus of hundreds of thousands!"

The comments below the post immediately turned sour, "Everyone, beat up this show-off!"

"Which company is this? I want to go too!"

"Hundreds of thousands of bonuses, are you dreaming? Wake up! There is a cockroach under your bed that drowned in your drool!"

Xu Chao, looking at the interesting comments, couldn’t help but laugh.

Just at that moment, Zhao Yi walked to the door and asked, "Brother Chao, what are you looking at?" fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

"Nothing, nothing!" Xu Chao hurriedly closed the webpage, switched to a code window, and pretended to be busy working.

Zhao Yi looked suspiciously at Xu Chao, carefully sizing him up, then glanced at the computer screen and walked away feeling a little disgusted.

As he walked to the door, he turned back and said, "Brother Chao, in the building behind ours, there’s an Aunt Zhang who often sits at the door. Aunt Zhang is quite fashionable, not even fifty years old, and has a pretty good family situation. Oh, and I think her husband has passed away."

"The day before yesterday when I came back, I met her and she was asking about you, saying she likes knowledgeable people. She seems quite interested in you."

That’s enough about that.

Xu Chao sat in front of the computer for a long time, pondering the words ’not even fifty’, ’dressed quite nicely’, and ’very interested in you’, and his face turned red.

Unable to help himself, he turned to scold Zhao Yi but only managed a quiet mutter, "Am I that kind of person?"

...

Zhao Yi didn’t pay attention to Xu Chao and went to the living room, where he saw news that interested him.

The iPhone is officially on sale.

Two months ago, Apple Company held a press conference to showcase their first self-developed phone, filled with many cutting-edge technologies.

With the hindsight of ten years later, these technologies are quite common, but they are still very attractive at the moment.

Before the official release of the iPhone, most phones had physical buttons. It seemed impossible to have a functional phone without them. Even those with touchscreens had simple designs with only one button or directional keys.

The reason for this design was that resistive touch screens were not very user-friendly.

The new generation iPhone released by Apple seems to break this awkward situation. The biggest selling point is its capacitive screen and multi-touch technology, which allows for accurate operation of the phone screen even with thick fingers and no physical keyboard.

What Zhao Yi is interested in is not the iPhone’s screen control method, but the optional official software and security features that can be installed.

He immediately went to the Apple official website to check.

The first-generation iPhone had many flaws, such as the lack of a ’copy’ function, no open ports for developers, and not even the most basic landscape screen support.

To install other features on the phone, one could only choose the ’optional’ software on the Apple official website.

Previously, Apple wanted to buy the Rubik’s Cube computer, but the offer was quite insulting. Zhao Yi didn’t even consider it and directly refused. He wanted to see if Apple had developed a Rubik’s Cube computer.

Click, enter.

No!

"As expected, there’s none. The time is still too short!"

That’s what Zhao Yi thought.

Now, there are already downloadable Rubik’s Cube calculators with good performance on the internet. Most of them have some bugs or poor calculation results, but their performance can cover most Rubik’s Cube possibilities.

This also led to a sharp decline in sales of Rubik’s Cube calculators.

The downloads and installations of Rubik’s Cube calculators were not enough to cover the costs. It made more sense to offer them for free or just remove them from the market.

Zhao Yi’s decision was to remove them.
