facebook_Facebook之后的生活？

facebook

Yesterday was my last day at Facebook. After 9 1/2 years it was high time for a change. I dropped the news on twitter/fb and thought now it would be nice to answer the question of "what's next?" that friends are wondering.

昨天是我在Facebook上的最后一天。 在9 1/2年之后，该是改变的时候了。 我在twitter / fb上发布了新闻，并认为现在可以回答“下一步是什么”的问题了。 朋友在想。

轨迹 (The trajectory)

I myself have wondered sometimes what the life after Facebook could look like for different folks. FB is one of the best places to be a software engineer, if not the best. To me, the path to FB took 10 years of upwards movement. DIY sites for other folks, then an lonely web dev at an enterprise company (Allianz), then immigration, start over at a web design studio, then enterprise (SAP), another immigration, Yahoo!, finally Facebook. Always moving to a greener pasture. For other engineers, FB is their first ever paid gig out of college. Where do you go from there, once you start at the top?

我自己曾经想过，有时候Facebook后的生活对于不同的人会是什么样子。 FB将是一个软件工程师的最好的地方之一，如果不是最好的。 对我而言，通往FB的道路历时10年。 为其他人提供DIY网站，然后是一家企业公司(Allianz)中的寂寞Web开发人员，然后是移民，首先是网站设计工作室，然后是Enterprise(SAP)，另一个移民是Yahoo !，最后是Facebook。 总是搬到绿色的牧场。 对于其他工程师来说，FB是他们大学毕业后的第一笔酬劳。 从顶部开始，您从那里去哪里？

Moving to another big Silicon Valley company (where engineers are treated better than anywhere else) is at best a lateral move.

转移到另一家硅谷大公司(工程师在这里得到的待遇比其他任何地方都好)，充其量只是横向行动。

泡泡 (The bubble)

And then there's the bubble you're inside of, when working for a FAANG company. The bubble of the big tech co and then an even smaller bubble of the specific company with its super advanced tools you learn to rely on. I've read somewhere that ex-Googlers commonly starting a company spent most of the time initially recreating the great tools they're used to use in their work.

在FAANG公司工作时，您会遇到泡沫。 大型科技公司的泡沫，再到特定公司的小型泡沫，您将学会依赖其先进的工具。 我读过某个地方的文章，前Google员工通常是在创办公司时花了大部分时间，最初都是在重新创建他们曾经在工作中使用的出色工具。

独奏 (Solo)

So, if moving up is not an option (there's no up), how about going different? And how different? I'd say as different as possible. What's different from a big Silicon Valley company? Small. Outside Silicon Valley. And not even a company. In other words going solo. Be more entrepreneurial. Explore a few ideas. And step outside the bubble.

因此，如果向上移动不是一种选择(没有向上移动)，那么如何与众不同？ 又有什么不同？ 我会说尽可能不同。 与一家大型硅谷公司有何不同？ 小。 在硅谷之外。 甚至没有一家公司。 换句话说，独奏。 更具创业精神。 探索一些想法。 并走出泡沫。

More specifically?

进一步来说？

teoriamusica.com (teoriamusica.com)

I'm taking music classes in Santa Monica College and in UCLA Extension (film scoring program). As part of my journey from self-taught guitarist to someone who can read and write music, I've being cobbling together online exercises at onlinemusictools.com. Usually a quick CRA done in an evening to help me practice for this week's quiz.

我正在圣塔莫尼卡学院和UCLA扩展(电影评分程序)上音乐课。 从我自学成才的吉他手到可以读写音乐的人的旅程的一部分，我一直在onlinemusictools.com上进行在线练习。 通常在晚上进行一次快速CRA ，以帮助我练习本周的测验。

While this site will always be out and free, I'd like to take the time to rebuild it properly, with more tools, especially for teachers, tracking progress, etc. Explore more of the WebAudio and WebMIDI APIs. I even got a domain for it - teoriamusica.com.

尽管该站点永远都是免费的，但我想花时间用更多工具，特别是针对教师，跟踪进度等的工具，正确地对其进行重建。探索更多WebAudio和WebMIDI API 。 我什至拥有一个域名-teoriamusica.com 。

Is this space too crowded? Is it now the best time for online educational aid? Who knows. The thing is building something takes time and the chances of success are higher if you stick with it. And chances of sticking with it are higher if you work on something you love.

这个空间太拥挤了吗？ 现在是在线教育援助的最佳时机吗？ 谁知道。 关键是要花一些时间，如果坚持下去，成功的机会就会更高。 如果您从事自己喜欢的事情，坚持使用它的机会就会更高。

sorty.app (sorty.app)

A friend has this other startup idea. How can you manage a product (not a project) so that business/design/engineering folks are on the same page throughout the (hopefully long and always messy) life of a product? sorty.app might have an answer. Exciting, isn't it? So I'll join my friend and we'll build this vision together.

朋友有另一个启动想法。 您如何管理产品(而非项目)，以使业务/设计/工程人员在整个产品生命周期中(希望很长且总是很杂乱)处于同一页面上？ sorty.app可能有答案。 令人兴奋，不是吗？ 因此，我将加入我的朋友，我们将共同建立这一愿景。

咨询服务 (Consulting)

Leaving the big tech co bubble may end up meaning you move to a smaller bubble after the initial "hello world!" exploratory phase. Your own bubble. Helping other companies OTOH exposes you to exciting new tech. And I want to do this too. So if you need Web Perf or JS consulting, hire me.

离开大型高科技公司泡沫可能最终意味着您在最初的“ hello world”之后将移至较小的泡沫！ 探索阶段。 你自己的泡沫。 帮助其他公司OTOH使您接触到令人兴奋的新技术。 我也想这样做。 因此，如果您需要Web Perf或JS咨询，请雇用我。

书籍/教育 (Books/edu)

O'Reilly has been asking me for second editions to React: Up and Running and JavaScript Patterns. The former I've actually started. And there's an early release out there.

O'Reilly一直在问我第二版的React：启动和运行以及JavaScript模式。 我实际上已经开始了。 并且有一个早期版本。

And then can I move beyond books and expand to video or other educational products? Possibly. People tell me they've learned a lot from me. Even changed jobs and as a result have better lives after reading (house, marriage, etc). What an honor! I don't think I'm an exceptional teacher, but maybe I'm providing an interesting angle. Often with programming concepts different people need different ways of explaining to grasp a concept.

然后，我可以超越书籍而扩展到视频或其他教育产品吗？ 可能吧人们告诉我他们从我那里学到了很多东西。 即使是换工作，因此读书后(房屋，婚姻等)生活也会更好。 真是荣幸！ 我认为我不是一名出色的老师，但也许我提供了一个有趣的角度。 通常，对于编程概念，不同的人需要采用不同的解释方式来理解一个概念。

Web性能社区 (Web perf community)

I've barely maintained calendar.perfplanet.com. It needs love. Podcast episodes need editing.

我几乎没有维护calendar.perfplanet.com 。 它需要爱。 播客剧集需要编辑。

I want to do more research that hopefully helps more people with various size web sites and skills. And share more with the community. If you're running a conference, talk to me.

我想做更多的研究，希望能帮助更多具有各种规模的网站和技能的人。 并与社区分享更多。 如果您正在召开会议，请与我交谈。

和音乐 (...and music.)

There is much to study and practice when it comes to music. Expect to see (erm, hear) me finally starting to finish and release music.

音乐方面，有很多东西要学习和练习。 期待最终能看到并听到我的声音。

好多主意 (So many ideas)

Programming is an interesting activity. There are so many options of things to do.

编程是一项有趣的活动。 有很多事情要做。

Am I missing something? Sure. Am I oversubscribing? Possibly. But I want to explore various directions and see what happens. And if nothing works and I realize I've made a mistake leaving Facebook? Well, nothing is irreversible. If it turns out self-employment, lifestyle-business, etc. is not my cup of tea, then I'll gladly join a new team with great people building cool tech.

我想念什么吗？ 当然。 我是否订阅过多？ 可能吧但是我想探索各种方向，看看会发生什么。 如果没有任何效果，我意识到离开Facebook犯了一个错误？ 好吧，没有什么是不可逆的。 如果事实证明自谋职业，生活方式商务等不是我的杯水，那么我将很乐意加入一个新团队，与很棒的人一起打造酷技术。
