To be is to be perceived.
存在即被感知。
How to interpret this quote?
Maybe it means that everything in your world doesn‘t exist if you failed to percept it.
Moreover, eveything we think we know about the reality surrounding us may be not what it really is.
Remember the famous line from The Bourne Identiy?
What you see, what you hear, may be not what it seems.
So, most often it would be very difficult to seek the truth of something beneath its appearance, especially for some complex problems.
In other words, as a coder in scientific fields, I should be more patient in the research process, there is no easy answer.
Designing and coding, characterized by hard mental labour of individuals, requires complete dedication without any interference of temptation.
To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk.
想要发明东西，你需要卓越的想象力和一堆废品。
From Thomas A. Edison.
Recently I have been very busy in doing some experiments with different hardware platforms to find out the most suitable one for a project.
Sometimes I really thought there is little value in my work, because most of my trials would finally be no use.
Just a pile of junk? Quite right.
But I know that is the necessary way to work out the best one, and I also can accumulate plenty of knowledge in those experiments.
Besides the knowledge and experience, I wish I can get some financial rewards for my endeavours, I am really well out of my pocket now.
