4 ways of treating problems
Absolution: Ignore the problem and hope it either fixes itself or someone else solves it. Default.
Resolution: Either look to the past for previous solutions to the same problem OR identify and remove the causes of the problem. Satisfice.
Solution: Analyse using quantitative methods and / or experimentation to try to yield the best possible outcome. Optimise.
Dissolution: Eliminate the problem and prevent it from arising again by redesigning the system that has the problem or its containing system. Idealise.

I love the following sentence a lot:

"Programmers are problem solvers. Programmers are logical thinkers. Programmers can figure out why it doesn't work. Programmers like to build new things and make old things work better.
Perhaps some folks think that limits programming to young folks, but I respectfully disagree. "

Expert vs Novice


Novice - Needs to be told exactly what to do. Very little context to base decisions off of.
Advanced beginner - Has more context for decisions, but still needs rigid guidelines to follow.
Competent - Begins to question the reasoning behind the tasks, and can see longer term consequences.
Proficient - Still relies on rules, but able to seperate what is most important.
Expert - Works mainly on intuition, except in circumstances where problems occur

choking


"Under conditions of stress, however, sometimes the person lose trust in her honed instincts, and the explicit system takes over. That is what it means to choke. Choking is different from panicking, when someone stops thinking under pressure. Panicking is thinking too little, choking is thinking too much."

2 nice conversation about games


The first one discuss game is attractive because there are difference level and motivation for the user to improve.

And second talk about the difference of man and women, man just like to go next but woman like to know why.

Interview with Einstein


Chris poses the question
"Einstein, being viewed as very intellegent and great thinker of our time and what do you that about GPA?"

Einstein answers:
"Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction."

Chris asks:
"Okay, so does GPA REALLY matter. People here state that GPA represents how much you learnt in the course and how much knowledge you have of the major at hand. Should employers look soley at this?"

Einstein answers:
"Imagination is more important than knowledge."

Chris states:
"Should I take a hard course even if I fail it and it effects my GPA?"

Einstein answers:
"Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new."

Chris asks:
"So what do you think of the modern education system?"

Einstein answers:
"The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education."

Chris states:
"I have seen so many people flame everybody who ask a out of the ordinary question, what do you think of this?"

Einstein answers:
"Great spirits have often encountered violent opposition from weak minds."

Chris asks:
"So what do you think about the Iraq war?"

Einstein answers:
"Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding."

Chris asks:
"Do you think that GPA (as a metric) should be fully used to indicate a success factor of an employee?"

Einstein answers:
"Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted counts."

Chris asks:
"So what do you think of CS graduates these days?"

Einstein answers:
"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe."

Chris asks:
"Should I do a phd and become a scientist, instead of aiming for just a bachelors?"

Einstein answers:
"Science is a wonderful thing if one does not have to earn one's living at it."

Chris poses the question:
"So with all these new languages out and tech gear, what are your views about modern society?"

Einstein answers:
"Technological progress is like an axe in the hands of a pathological criminal."

Chris asks:
"What do you think of all those CS guys with inflated egos?"

Einstein answers:
"Weakness of attitude becomes weakness of character."

Chris concludes:
"So as part of my final question, should I aim to be a great programmer?"

Einstein answers:
"In order to form an immaculate member of a flock of sheep one must, above all, be a sheep."

Chris:
"Thankyou for your time Prof. Einstein and your views on many of the topics that relate to these forums."
