Online Classes Don’t Work

QRCode

I’ve finally realized the glaring missing element from online art education: The studio.

Studio was the room where we all made things together. Studio was where we talked together.

Studio was where we worked all day, and chugged coffee all night. Studio was where we dragged ourselves back to in the early morning to present our projects and get feedback.

Studio was where we got stuff done. Studio was where we slacked off.

Studio was where we shared favorite books, playlists, blogs, and inspiration. Studio was where we laughed, learned, and grew together.

Preparing for Coding Interviews

There are concepts that are fundamental in programming world. Most of the technical interviews are meant to discover your problem solving skills and knowing those concepts, so besides mastering a programming language, you should be familiar with the concepts that are somewhat required in programmer’s arsenal. Here’s an excerpt from my recent lesson post in SoloLearn (below are the links to Android and iOS apps).

This Is How Big Oil Will Die

QRCode

The point has been most often driven home by Tony Seba, a Stanford professor and guru of “disruption”, who revels in pointing out that an internal combustion engine drivetrain contains about 2,000 parts, while an electric vehicle drivetrain contains about 20. All other things being equal, a system with fewer moving parts will be more reliable than a system with more moving parts.

How to Stop Procrastinating Using the 70% Rule – The Mission – Medium

QRCode

In his letter to shareholders back in 2016, Jeff Bezos gave the best advice I’ve ever heard on how to stop procrastinating:

“Most decisions should probably be made with somewhere around 70% of the information you wish you had. If you wait for 90%, in most cases, you’re probably being slow. Plus, either way, you need to be good at quickly recognizing and correcting bad decisions. If you’re good at course correcting, being wrong may be less costly than you think, whereas being slow is going to be expensive for sure.”

What Bezos is saying is that you should think like a C student. When you’re about 70% sure, you take a guess and see what happens.

When you teach people to type faster, they get their ideas out. "Transcription influency" - 24wpm is minimum

Typing is great for producing knowledge for other people, say, writing an article. The faster you type, the better your ideas will be. There’s a thing called transcription fluency, which boils down to: “when your fingers can’t move as fast as your thoughts, your ideas suffer.” If you help people increase their typing speed, their thoughts improve. (Learn to type faster.)
