Gamers Are Fierce Chapter 211: Code Farmer


“The curse?”

Tang Rannuo frowned slightly, “How do you know.”

Li Ang didn’t talk nonsense. He turned the tablet and showed it to Tang Rannuo.

On the screen of the tablet computer was the green mirror image he had just captured with a digital video camera.

On the screen, Xia Junqiang, wearing a plaid shirt, is sitting at the computer desk, using a desktop computer to browse the github webpage,

Ordinary, extremely ordinary, dull face, reflecting the dim light of the computer screen.

The resolution captured by the digital camera is quite high. After Tang Rannuo magnified the picture several times, he could even see the sweat on Xia Junqiang’s high forehead with a worrying hairline.

“Xia Junqiang is an unemployed programmer. According to citizen information, half a year ago, he was forcibly fired by the CEO of an IT company who had served for six years without any compensation.

Xia Junqiang applied to the Labor Dispute Arbitration Commission for arbitration. After submitting a written application, he received compensation equivalent to two months’ wages a few days ago. “

Li Ang said: “Did you see it in Xia Junqiang’s death memory just now?

He showed that he browsed the project on the Github platform, then broke into a certain house, attacked and killed two people, and then returned to his rental house and was recruited to work.

The item he browsed was abnormal. “

As an open source code repository and version control system, Github has more than 9 million developer users.

As more and more applications move to the cloud, Github has become the preferred method for managing software development and discovering existing code.

In other words, the vast majority of programmers in the world are inseparable from Github, the “social network” and “communist open source code base”.

However, it was a project spontaneously uploaded by programmers nearly half a year ago,

Refers to work from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm, 6 days a week,

Intensive care unit (ICU) when sick.

The earliest, programmers used self-deprecating stalks to call on programmers to put their lives first, work overtime and stay up late,

I never imagined that more and more people would add stars to this project, making it the fastest-rising project on the Github platform,

The essence has also changed from self-deprecating to a “programmer uprising” that publicly opposes the “996 work system” that has been established in China

The labor law stipulates that the average working hours per week shall not exceed 44 hours, while the working hours of the 996 working system are at least 72 hours per week, which obviously violates the relevant laws, but is widely implemented by major companies.

Over time, programmers have exposed and criticized the extremely inhumane working systems of major companies, and many well-known Internet leading companies have been listed on their pages.

“You mean,”

Tang Rannuo squeezed his chin with his fingers and asked softly, “The idea of ​​murder was born after the mission target browsed the relevant webpage?”

“That’s right.”

Li Ang nodded, “I entered the location and house number of the house where Xia Junqiang broke into, and found the information of the owner of the house in the citizen information system.

It was a 26-year-old young woman, unmarried, who used to be a hotel clerk. She had an average family background. She dropped out of high school to work in Yinshi, and her past bank card information was normal.

Until a year ago, abnormal amounts began to appear on her bank card steadily, from 7,000 more per month, to 8,000 per month, to 120,000 per month.

Six months ago, there was an extra amount of more than 700,000 yuan on her card, and she used the money to pay the down payment for that ordinary house. “

“Um…”

Tang Rannuo narrowed his eyes, “…This woman who was killed knew Xia Junqiang?”

“Unfortunately, they don’t know each other.”

Li Ang shook his head, “But she knew Xia Junqiang’s former company boss, a married middle-aged man named Ji Tongqian.

The two have been in and out of the hotel together since a year ago,

Ji Tong Qian pays her card number every month. Half a year ago, she paid more than 700,000 yuan to help her pay the house down payment.

The two of them are a relationship between a married old man and the adopted mistress. “

After speaking, Li Ang glanced at Tang Rannuo who frowned and said with a smile: “Why would an ordinary code farmer who has left the job for half a year kill the previous boss of the company?

I am quite curious about this. Using the enterprise credit information system, I inquired about the IT companies that Ji Tongqian runs.

It was found that the company had many employee resignation records before,

On some forums, there are also occasional posts about the company’s employees complaining about the strict overtime system.

Obviously, this IT company belongs to the kind of small and medium-sized enterprises with less money and more work, forcing employees to work overtime, chaotic management, and cronyism,

As the boss of the company, Xia Junqiang requires his employees to work overtime with high intensity. At the same time, he refuses to raise wages and pay enough overtime allowances, which has caused considerable complaints. “

Tang Rannuo nodded, “Black-hearted capitalists and exploited code farmers.”

“Correct.”

Li Ang said with a smile: “Xia Junqiang’s high school and college grades are quite good. When he studied computer science in Yinshi, he and his team won the ACM-ICPC International College Student Programming Contest.

It stands to reason that his position should be higher, and he should not be a developer in an ordinary IT company-this is probably because he had a serious illness during college and was in urgent need of money after recovery.

In short, he broke up completely with the company half a year ago (presumably to resist overtime or something) and was forcibly fired,

Afterwards, he applied for labor arbitration to the labor dispute arbitration committee, but there was no result, and he only got the compensation a few days ago.

Not long after he got the compensation, he carried out a burglary and killed the original boss. “

“…”

Tang Rannuo hesitated for a moment, then said: “Judging from this information, the code farmer’s burglary and murder has no direct connection with the extraordinary factor,

The murder of the original boss can be interpreted as a simple labor dispute.

For example, Ji Tong has money, but he just doesn’t want to pay compensation. He even verbally abused Xia Junqiang, who came to ask for salary, and insulted his personality, which eventually led to the incident. “

Tang Rannuo, who pretends to be a model, has a brain that is far more intelligent than a beautiful appearance. Players who can live to Lv10 and above~IndoMTL.com~ are not stupid.

“Before this, I thought so too.”

Li Ang smiled, crossed his hands and supported his chin with the back of his hands, “until I made the picture clearer and saw the specific content that Xia Junqiang browsed that day.”

He swipes across the tablet’s screen, further magnifying the green mirror image.

Tang Rannuo lowered his head subconsciously and pulled down his sunglasses slightly.

Xia Junqiang’s computer screen is not just a project on the Github platform,

To be precise, it is a program called Anti-996License (Anti-996 License) under the project.

Almost as soon as she saw the screen clearly, Tang Rannuo felt nauseated, as if his brain was being punctured by steel needles.

This is… a cognitive bias.
