update of work

Two weeks from the first day of my new job have past.
I am pretty amazed about what they did in just less than one year.

They pretty much built up the GPS system software already.
Althogh it's just the first version, it looks to me it's ready to be commercial already.
I worked hard and made a little improvement by enabling the key in for address numbers to be intelligent so that only the available numbers would be allowed to be type due the valid house numbers on the selected streed.

It was a simple AI compared to what they already have as to enable the alphabetic keys only when typing the city names for instance.
If "TAIPEI" was about to be typed, after 'T', 'A' would be available, if there is no city names that starts with "TB", then 'B' won't be visible. I like the idea for user not to type in anything meaningless.

Anyway, so far the schedule is not quite tight, so I am allowed much time to trace the codes as deep as possible. Hopefully the urgent requests come, I will be able to handle them very quickly as a real professionlist.

A new beginning

I guess I screwed up the interview with Cadence.
Now I am on board at Polstar.

The salary package is a lot less than C, the location beats me to find a parking place, and the working environment doesn't seem as good.

But God led me here for some purpose or reason.
Maybe His will tell me in the future that this was not His decision.
But this is now the only choice I have.

All I can do now is pray for my contribution to the company and the company itself.
Hopefully in the near future, stock will go public, life becomes financially better, and everything is worth it.
