The years of red flags

Xiao Sun moved very quickly. Before the research institute was completed, he had already started sending technology to the countryside.

It is said that he has collected all the new off-road vehicles in Chang'an City, and allocated a total of thirty off-road vehicles and twenty pickup trucks.

After the equipment was fully equipped, technicians took the official introduction documents and drove off-road vehicles and pickup trucks to the countryside to deliver the technology.

Officials also know that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Every scientific and technical personnel going to the countryside will be accompanied by staff and equipped with a guard.

The work at the beginning was definitely not very smooth. Not even a single payment of the 100 million yuan in aid funds was approved within seven days. The people were also uneasy. They always felt that you had lent them money in vain. Have a picture.

At this time, people's hearts need to change. After they have been together for a long time and have feelings for each other, there will be warriors who will step forward and be the first to take advantage of the situation.

At the end of March, on the 24th to be precise, Nato, headed by Chou Guo, swarmed in to bully a weakling without obtaining legal procedures.

In seventy-eight days, 1,150 fighter aircraft sorties dropped a total of 420,000 bombs weighing nearly 22,000 tons.

The local people suffered a lot. Thousands of people were killed, millions of people were displaced, and millions of people lost their livelihoods.

The international community has certainly condemned this unreasonable behavior.

Jiang Hua shook his head: "If condemnation was effective, Chou Country would have been doomed a thousand times over. In the final analysis, strength comes first. Without strength, others will bully you unscrupulously."

Zheng Tong echoed: "If you fall behind, you will be beaten. This sentence is simply the truth."

Jiang Hua has been thinking of ways to avoid the tragedy in May, but he found that the power of individuals is too weak and is nothing in front of the state machine.

Zheng Tong pointed to the messages in the QQ group and said: "Look, the group is full of anger and anger. Only a bastard like Chou Guo can do this kind of bullying of the weak."

Seeing the network, Jiang Hua thought of an idea that was not an idea. The current network management method is not very sound and there are loopholes to exploit.

Not two days later, there was a very heated topic on the Internet, which was about whether the Ugly Congress would be bold enough to attack our base.

QQ received a warning for the first time because the discussion was too heated. At least half of the netizens online were discussing whether such a thing would happen.

Jiang Hua thought to himself that this was all he could do. If he continued, he would be dragged away and sliced ​​into slices.

The characteristic that the Internet has no memory soon became apparent. After QQ received the warning, no one discussed the topic anymore. Less than seven days later, the topic was like the wind drifting into history.

At this time, another problem appeared in the network. In fact, this problem had been noticed many years ago, but it has been delayed until now.

This is the famous Y2K problem, because in the past, in order to save disk space, all programs used a simple time expression, so someone with the name discovered that maybe this time has reached 1999 and 2000. When crossed, it will cause the computer system to crash. The Y2K issue was officially put online in 1999 and became another hot topic that year. However, many people discussing this topic do not understand what Y2K actually means.

There was a joke like this. An old lady went to buy pesticides. The seller of pesticides asked the old lady what kind of bug she wanted to kill. The old lady said that her grandson had mentioned that the Millennium Bug problem was about to break out and she wanted to prepare for it. A little pesticide and you’re prepared.

In fact, programmers have raised the millennium bug problem a long time ago, but at that time computers were not yet popular in all aspects, so many programmers thought it was unfounded. However, by 1999, computers had become popular in the entire industry.

Transportation systems, medicine, taxation systems, power systems, telecommunications, insurance, finance, etc. Computers in these industries still use old programs that use six digits to express time, which means that once the "Millennium Bug" breaks out , will have a very inconvenient impact on people's lives, and may even cause huge losses.

Thus, the largest bug correction operation in human history began. Programmers all over the world worked overtime to rewrite the program.

But programmers soon discovered a problem: because there were too many programs that used six digits to express time, if they all had to be rewritten, it would not be completed before the year 2000.

So they made a smart choice, which was to rewrite only computer programs in key industries. As for old programs in other computers, they used the convenient and fast Windowing repair method.

Simply put, the Windowing repair method is to only calculate the years between 1920-2020 by changing the time window.

Because the year 1900 has been excluded, the two numbers 00 can only represent the year 2000, so there will be no ambiguity in the expression of time by the computer. This method does not require changing the six-digit time code to an eight-digit time code, so it can Greatly speed up bug fixing progress.

In the following period, programmers used Windowing to repair 80% of the world's computers and basically completed the deworming operation. When the bell rang in 2000, except for some personal computers crashing, everything was generally fine. of.

In May, the Windows repair method had not yet been fully scientifically verified. Jianghua's network research team was also working hard to rewrite the time format in their previous program. They worked overtime every day, which was very difficult.

"Except for key departments, just use the Windows repair method directly on your personal computer."

Regarding Jiang Hua's proposal, the leader of the network research team shook his head like a rattle: "Boss, no one can be sure that the Windows repair method will be effective."

"But no one is sure that it will have no effect. If the personal computer crashes, it will crash." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "As long as there are no problems with the computers in key units."

The group leader said with disgust: "I really cannot agree with your conciliatory approach."

Jiang Hua said with a smile: "To fix all the bugs on the entire network, it will cost Ugly Country more than 300 billion U.S. dollars, maybe even as high as 500 billion U.S. dollars. If the personal computers all over the world crash, it will not be worth the money. I still I really trust the Windows repair method.”

Of course Jiang Hua believed it. In his previous life, he had also encountered the topic of the millennium bug, and it was noisy. Unfortunately, at the moment of New Year's Eve, the computer seemed unresponsive, all thanks to the power of Windows repair method.
