Do you know about Chinese software engineers?
你了解中國的軟件工程師嗎?
To compare with American engineers, what advantages and disadvantages do they have?
相對于美國的工程師,你認為他們有什么優勢和弱點?
Obviously, they are better at understanding the arrangement of polysyllabic word,while American engineers know little about it.
個非常明顯的長處是中國的工程師可以更好地理解多音節詞的排列,而這是我們美國的研發者非常陌生的東西。
But commonly, I found that researchers from different countries have many things in common instead of differences.
但是通常來說,我發現不同國家的研發者的相同之處要多于差異。
Different people in different countries are doing the similar thing, this is interesting.
不同的人們在不同的國家做著差不多相同的事情是一件非常有趣的事。
They are different in terms of the economic aspect, but they have similar feelings and interests, more than you can imagine.
在經濟上他們是有所不同的,但是在感情和興趣的重疊程度,比你想象的要大得多。
In what way could Chinese and American engineers communicate with each other better?
中美工程師間如何更好的交流溝通?
Actually, this is a language problem. But in the open source program, we have C language.
事實上,這是語言問題,但在開源項目中,我們有C語言。
But of course, there still some kind of barrier of language, especially when the issue could not be explained clear by technology language.
但當然確實有一定的語言障礙,尤其是當某個想法無法通過技術語言來表達的時候。
I have no idea about how long it will take us to conquer this problem.
我不清楚我們還需要多長時間來克服這個問題。
I would like to advice the American to learn some Chinese, but this is a little bit difficult to realize.
我很樂意建議美國的工程師都學一些中文,但這不是很現實的事情。
Anyway, English is the standard technology language. So, to communicate better, Chinese engineers need to learn and practice English.
無論如何,英語是標準的互聯網技術語言,因此,要想更好的進行交流,中國的工程師需要更好的學習和使用英文。
I am not an American, and English is not my mother tongue, so I understand the difficulty to work not with the mother tongue.
我不是美國人,母語也不是英文,所以我很理解不使用母語工作的痛苦
However, we have to face the reality.
但是我們必須面對這樣的現實。
How do you think the technology will affect internet start-ups?
你認為技術對互聯網新興公司有哪些作用?
I don’t think that the technology will always be the most important, actually, making the right decision at the right time is more important.
我不認為技術總是非常重要的,事實上,在正確的時候對市場做出正確的判斷和決定更重要。
I have seen many companies that focus too much on the most advanced technology, but they failed at last.
我見過很多的公司,他們太過于追求最先進的技術,但最后還是失敗了。
