工作 –> 赏识 循环
1 分•作者: Nischalj10•7 个月前
我今年24岁，正在努力寻找能让我快乐的工作。目前我是一名软件工程师。
我喜欢看到人们欣赏我构建的东西——而这种“工作 -> 赞赏”的循环在软件工程领域是最短的。其他领域很少有同样的感觉（例如研究、硬件等）。
随着人工智能对软件工程的“TikTok化”——这个循环变得更短了——尽管我承认，开发生产级软件仍然需要付出大量的努力，而我们程序员也一直只是为了乐趣而编写玩具软件。
但最近，我开始对精神病学研究产生了浓厚的兴趣，并一直在考虑通过攻读硕士学位来全职从事这项工作。撇开所有其他因素不谈，我不确定我将如何克服软件带来的这种极短的反馈循环，以及对于我应该如何考虑这种转变，有什么建议吗？

I am a 24yo trying to figure out what kind of work makes me happy. I am a currently a software engineer.<p>I love when people appreciate what I have built - and this cycle of "work -> appreciation" has been shortest in software engineering. Other fileds rarely feel the same (eg research, hardware, etc.)<p>With the tiktokification of software engineering with AI - this cycle has never been shorter - though I do agree making production grade software still requires meaningful amount of efforts and us as programmers have always been writing toy software just for the fun of it.<p>But lately, I have been deeply interested in pursuing psychiatry research and have been thinking of pursuing it full time by going for a masters degree. All things aside, I am not sure how would I get over this extremly short feedback cycle that software has made possible and if there's any advice on how should I think about this transition.
