Chapter 2009 Karen Kallen
Internet nickname: Karen!
The first time it appeared in the public eye was more than ten years ago. A company whose main business was network security. In order to promote and prove the power of its technology, it invited hackers from all over the world and claimed that As long as you can break through the firewall of their server, you can get virtual currency worth tens of millions of dollars placed in the server.
The high bonuses can be obtained safely, which attracted many masters to come to challenge, but they failed one by one, including many who have been famous for a long time.
This has attracted many experts who focus on technology. They come one after another just to break through the firewall and prove that their technology is powerful.
However, this invisible and intangible network firewall is like an iron wall, causing the masters who rush forward to hit their heads and blood.
Just when all the famous computer experts were at a loss, the firewall that was considered impenetrable by people inside and outside the industry was suddenly breached, and the opponent's speed was so fast that no one could react. Come over, the virtual currency has been taken away, leaving only a name in the server:
KAREN!
This ordinary, nondescript name has since become famous, and soon spread throughout the world and became well known.
This was Karen's battle to become famous, but what made Karen ascend to the altar was the day after the offensive and defensive battle. She released more than ten 'hacker' software on the hacker forum. Not only Shared for free, and also opened the source, so that everyone can know how to break through the firewall.
Not only is the computer technology superb, but also the software used, its structure and algorithms are very advanced.
How should I put it? If programmers all over the world used woodblock printing before this, then Karen used movable type printing.
The efficiency of writing programs can be said to be as high as in the sky or on the ground, and the speed difference is not even a little bit different. It shocked the 'hackers' that their eyes would fall to the ground, and made them suddenly realize, 'Ah, It turns out that the program can still be written like this.
Since then, everyone began to 'reference' Karen's data structure and use her open source algorithm to write programs. After actual testing, they found that it was indeed very powerful.
After that, Karen uploaded hundreds of softwares one after another, each of which was more than three or four times more efficient than other software of the same type.
The most important thing is that with such efficient programs and powerful algorithms, Karen did not keep them to herself. Instead, she opened the source and shared them with the world for free.
It is no exaggeration to describe the progress this has brought to the network and computer industry as 'unparalleled'.
Because this has opened up a new track for programmers all over the world. They no longer need to 'build building blocks' like before, but can be like gardeners, waving big scissors and cutting at will.
Before Karen was open source, programmers all over the world were dancing on the 'Shit Mountain', and the longer a project iterated on, the more complex and inefficient code there was, so much so that it was widely circulated. A joke: The mountain of shit has been passed down for generations, and it remains silent from generation to generation.
Every 'inheritance' will leave a lot of problems. Generally speaking, the people who take over will not, let alone dare to touch the previous code, but make targeted repairs, even if it is obvious. If you know there is a BUG, as long as the program can run, don't touch it, because you don't know which line the BUG will involve, which code was written a year ago without any comments.
The most famous example is an online version of a single-player game. The loading time reached one to twenty minutes. No matter how high-configuration the computer is, it cannot shorten the loading time. It was later discovered that the reason was because an IF looped nearly two billion times, and then Nothing happened, and the problem was not fixed for more than seven years.
This is not just about programmers being lazy and muddle along, but the scope is too wide. It is not too common in daily operations to change a code and get a bunch of bugs, so unless you are a very good newcomer, otherwise No one dares to touch the basic structure at all, because this is not a matter of typing on the keyboard and rewriting a code, but a matter of affecting the whole body.
Moving the underlying architecture is like removing a building block from the bottom of a skyscraper model and then inserting a new one. Just before success, no one knows what will happen if this building block is removed. This building will not collapse. Even if it does not collapse, will the new building blocks inserted into it fit as tightly as the original one? Will it cause the surrounding building blocks to become skewed?
In short, once it comes to the underlying structure of Shishan Code, it cannot be overemphasized. It is no exaggeration to say that changing even one line of core code is a terrifying thing. Therefore, everyone does not change if they can, and do not change if they can. If it is not possible, they will patch. They would rather patch piles of patches than change the code.
But all this was solved with Karen's continuous open source, and everyone suddenly realized that it was still possible to change the code in this way, and to wave the big scissors unscrupulously, and make those lines useless, redundant, and inefficient. Cut out the code, and then connect the new efficient code.
This is simply.
It’s so invincible.
For the entire industry, the advanced software programs written by Karen can be said to be a dimensionality reduction blow. It’s no different than garbage.
Some were hit by decadence, while others were studying with bright eyes. Karen’s fame also increased with the spread of Karen structure and Karen algorithm. She soon became widely known and was highly praised by both the industry and outside. Good reviews, after all, who doesn’t like something that is easy to use and free?
Since then, Karen structure and Karen algorithm have been widely used. In addition, Karen also updates her algorithm and structure from time to time, making the program more efficient, so that today, it has become It is one of the cornerstones of human network and technology. Although it is not the only one, it is a very important one, supporting the increasingly huge network world.
Over the past ten years, too many people and organizations have wanted to see Karen, but no one knows her identity. Even the most basic men and women do not know. More than one person and organizations have tried. By obtaining Karen's identity information and even IP address, they found nothing, and they were immediately counterattacked by Karen, causing heavy losses.
As time goes by, no one dared to do it in a big way, which made Karen's identity even more mysterious and gave Karen a veil of legend.
Some say that Karen is actually a group of people, some say that Karen is an alien, and some say.
Only Ye Rui firmly believes that Karen is a girl, and will keep Karen as the only one. The online nickname, transliterated as Karen, also became Karen’s internal registration code at TPC.
And Ye Rui is also one of the very few people who can communicate with Karen like a friend, and has told Karen's greatness in a praising tone more than once.
You know, Ye Rui is a genius boy in the computer field, a super genius who is one in a billion. When he was in his third year of high school, he was admitted by Jian Hui and joined the victory team, becoming the youngest member.
There is also such a super genius, Midorikawa Mai, who broke the highest record in the TPC skills test at the age of 16. Even Ye Rui admitted that Midorikawa Mai’s talent is not inferior to his, and what she lacks now is just experience. That’s all, given time, I can definitely surpass him.
But these two young geniuses both admire Kallen extremely, and both believe that they can still have a chance to surpass the other if they work hard, but they will never be able to catch up with Kallen.
In Ye Rui's words, the stronger your ability is, the more you will feel like you are standing tall when facing Karen.
To use an inappropriate metaphor, this is a frog. After all the hard work, it finally climbed out of the deep well, thinking that it could see the whole sky. Only then did it realize that the world outside was actually It is so vast, but beyond this world, there is a broader universe, and there is a universe beyond the universe.
And Kallen belongs to the category. You worked hard for a long time and finally learned the linear equation of two variables, only to find that everyone was doing calculus problems.
No wonder, Kallen is called a god, the god of the Internet! ! !
It is really too much, and the gap with ordinary people is so big that it can no longer be made up by hard work, even with talent.
Listening to Ye Rui's endless description of Kallen's feats, Asuka Xin kept glancing at his lips and said, "Is it so exaggerated?"
"Not at all. It’s not an exaggeration.” Ye Rui said seriously: “This is just what I learned.”
"If that's really the case, then there might be a problem here." Dagu also became serious, but he was thinking about the crux of the problem. If this Karen has such terrifying abilities, then the company she is responsible for is absolutely impregnable and impregnable, and no one can do anything under her nose.
This also means that if there is a problem with this company called Faibas, it is either caused by internal employees or by Kallen. Of course, there are also It may be that cosmic people quietly entered the earth's network and spread information through methods beyond the knowledge and even imagination of earthlings.
"Then we'll find out if we investigate." Feiniao Xin interjected from the side. His thoughts were always simple and crude. Since XXX is suspected, let's check it out.
This also made Dagu feel quite helpless and said: "It can't be so simple."
"Huh? Is it troublesome?" Asuka Shin was even more confused. Both the Super Victory Team and the Space Adventure Team have global mission authority.
In layman's terms, the Super Victory Team can go to any location 'freely', and can also hold weapons, fly fighter jets, and even mobilize local armed forces to coordinate.
This is also the reason why Chief of Staff Nagumo tried his best to include the Super Victory Team in his bag. Such power is boundless.
In the past, I was called a special commissioner or an imperial envoy. As for saying that I could only have such rights against aliens and monsters, it would be too easy to find reasons and excuses.
After all, if it is placed in a tube and no one can touch it, who can know whether it is washing powder or something else? It does not all depend on the person holding it.
"Karen's identity information is only her name. For more than ten years, no one has found out who she is.
And Faibasi is a large company in the world's top 50 companies. It's not just a matter of checking. It can be checked, not to mention that it involves the company's core secrets. "
Dagu had to give Asuka some information. Although the Super Victory Team and the Space Adventure Team have great rights, everything is different. It cannot be solved by one rule.
Otherwise, if the law is enacted, there should be no more criminals.
If it is a general identity check, they can still cooperate with you, but this requires a comprehensive and in-depth inspection of the Faibasi server.
Not only does it involve user data, it also involves core secrets such as the company's algorithms and game source code. This is equivalent to a national live broadcast going through a person's browsing history.
Even if there is conclusive evidence, the other party will definitely obstruct it at all levels, not to mention that it is just a guess now. If this goes by, they will definitely look at fools and drive them out mercilessly. Even if you are a super victory team member.
After listening to Da Gu’s words, Asuka Shin also scratched his head and said, “Then let’s forget it?”
“Of course not,” Da Gu shook his head. This involves many people. If people disappear, more people will inevitably suffer in the future, so naturally we cannot let it go.
“You can’t investigate with great fanfare, you can only pass by quietly.”
Yerui suddenly said with his eyes shining: "Faibasi has just developed a game recently and is currently recruiting game testers. If you perform well, you will get an invitation letter to visit the headquarters. Participants of this game Press conference."
"So."
"Yes!"
Da Gu Hearing Ye Rui's questions and answers, Feiniao Xin was confused and said: "What are you talking about?"
"Obviously Ye Rui wants to participate in the game test." Dagu couldn't laugh or cry. Said: "Okay, in the name of the Space Adventure Team, I will send a document to your superior department and invite you to participate."
Ye Rui, who had been 'seen through', smiled, but was not embarrassed at all. Instead, he was eager to try and couldn't wait to start the 'mission'.
Since he was promoted, Ye Rui’s time for playing games has been compressed to the extreme. He usually has to maintain the dignity of his superiors, so naturally he cannot play games in front of his subordinates. In addition, he has to deal with many things, so naturally he can’t play games in front of his subordinates. When to play games.
Now I finally have the opportunity to play games openly and get paid to play games. Is there anything more exciting than this?
"Well, vice-captain, do you think I can do it?" Asukaxin blinked his eyes, with a flattering smile on his face, and his purpose was almost written on his face.
“You are very capable,” Dagu patted Asuka Shin’s shoulder and said, “So, I’ll leave you with the night patrol.”
"Huh?" Asukaxin was stunned, and saw that Dagu and Yerui had gone far away. He hurriedly chased after him, shouting as he ran: "Vice-captain, I didn't mean that."
"That's what you said. This."
"No, I have something to do that night."
"What?"
"Oh, who are you with?"
"Well, it's not confirmed yet, so it's hard to say."
"Oh, let's wait until it's confirmed before asking for leave for a date."
"Ah, no..."
"That's it, take your time, young man."
