Building HR software for dying on Mars?
Ammar Mian is a software engineer and the co-founder of startup health tech company Malla - and another former student of Oz's and Bradfield School of Computer Science! Many software engineers daydream about starting their own company one day, so we've got Ammar on the show this week to give us the goods. Is it still fun? Can you still get into flow? Are you still coding? Does Oz want to die on Mars? All this and more!

Jason Benn's path to ML engineering
Просмотров 683Месяц назад
Jason Benn is an ML engineer and truly the epitome of a lifelong learner (Cal Newport even wrote about Jason in one of his books on learning!). Oz and Charlie catch up with Jason on his current self-directed ML sabbatical - which he's corralled into a co-working cohort called mleclub.com (similar to Recurse Center but with an ML / AI focus). We discuss the tactical, strategic, and emotional sid...

Brandon Hendrickson (creator of scienceisweird.com) says no one's ever asked him about the sabertooth tiger skull in his Zoom background - until now! Brandon's a teacher steeped in the ideas of Kieran Egan - a prolific educational theorist who believes the world is FASCINATING and that IMAGINATION is key to how we humans learn. We explore how Egan's approach could work for autodidact software e...

do you have transcripts of the podcast anywhere?
We've added a few via our podcast host that include speaker info (e.g. show.csprimer.com/episodes/e17-1000-hours-away-from-being-exceptional/transcript) and others which are raw Whisper output (e.g. show.csprimer.com/episodes/e18-do-you-love-programming-as-much-as-thorsten-ball-does/transcript)
You might enjoy "Science-mart" by Mirowski for a history / historiography of American science funding eras and relative "output"
You should really read Joshua Waitzkin's The Art of Learning. He went through a similar rapid progression to the top of competitive Tai Chi Push Hands in a short time frame.
basic execution of java code actualy requires a whiteboard in and of itself, so fair.
why any company has chosen to use kafka is beyond me.
For giving a child a sense of "building their personal library", perhaps helping them make and use a custom bookplate stamp for their books would spark that feeling
Thank you for this. This is history
Well, came here wanting to learn about becoming a great engineer as a complete beginner 23 year old, Came away learning about NGO obsessing over 15 year Olds and making them innovators and engineers, people who still have life and years ahead of them to figure out shit and learn things Appreciate the guys' obsession though and his vision and scale of creating a ripple in the student community so heads up
The point about kids not knowing what a filesystem is, man. This is such a disadvantage
Klutz is just the best.
There's nothing like them! Such sources of joy.
Brilliant insight
Brit is awesome- I totally relate to his quest to explore data compression- except for machine learning “knowledge.” Like- For an image recognized by a deep layered neural work- that image exists as a “constellation” as it were- of connected neurons. What are the critical connections and what are the trivial connections for a concept like “cat.” Or “dog.” Can the trivial ones be “shaved off” so to speak- what’s the minimal number of neurons needed for a given tool to recognize a concept? Think of human cave drawings that evolved into letters.
Imagine a show that is both history and prophecy. That’s Connections. Burke “connects” seemingly unrelated inventions and histories events and uses the innovations that arise to prophesize how they will affect our future. In 1978, he correctly fortold of metadata and big banks; in 1985 he did no less than imagine a telework world and the interconnected network of social media. There are now 4 Connections shows and another one called The Day The Universe Changed, all absolutely worthy of your time.

There you are!
After this podcast, when I will do some bad engineering decisions I will think "Oz would not be happy" 😂
Exciting episode! Keep up the great work on the podcast 💚
Finally a new episode! I think Vlad Ten will be happy. Please keep making the podcast!
Pricing plans of CSPrimer??
People need to learn throughout their lives that's fine
Great talk. I recently finished reading George Leonard's "Mastery". And, several points Oz brings up reminded me of passages from the book. Incidentally, Leonard sees the process from the lens of Aikido. It is fascinating. On the topic of Software Engineers "getting better" - how would one even measure that for themselves?
I’m hoping the answer isn’t related at all LeetCode.
These talks are very valuable. Thanks.
Thank you! It’s good to have a buddy you can share your “failure modes” with.
Cool, btw when will you release cs primer?
Working on it! Thanks for your patience :)
Hi from Vlad Ten subscribers
Hi, when will you release csprimer
Inspiring one, thank you! Are you aware of any Nand2Tetris for finance/economics? I'd also love to find one for probability (math)
Oh, I'd love to find something like that, too. I will check with Oz to see if he's found anything.
@@whatrocks thank you so much!!
@@whatrocks It would be cool to start a list of books which approximate the Nand2Tetris education style for various topics.
Are you aware of any Nand2Tetris for finance/economics?
Love the content Oz!
Thanks for sharing your experience, Gentlemen.

Thank you for sharing!
Keep doing it, amazing podcast
Keep doing that 😮 please don't stop🙅
-How much did you watch it? -Yes
I mean it was good
Keep going, Vlad Ten thinks it's cool, he's your fanboy
Echoing everyone saying to continue with the podcast! 🚀Being able to look over shoulders and be introduced to ideas that move unknown-unknowns to known-unknowns is spreading seeds of experience that while isn't "learning" in the traditional, active sense, does create new doors of exploration that didn't exist previously.👀 It's the same with why storytelling has been such a powerful knowledge sharing tool for lifetimes, it's not "learning" itself but is a resource of knowledge that can then be picked up or not, but creates ripples nonetheless. Besides Khan Academy, I hadn't heard of any of the other shownote resources previously and even if I had, it's interesting to hear experienced devs give their insights/opinions of them.✨
You are doing great
No! you nice keep going
Keep going. From Vlad Ten
