Efficiency Tips for Engineers (From An AI Researcher + Stanford PhD) 

The secret to a prodigious career: efficiency over a long period of time. Instead of relying on motivation to get things done, rely on a methodical system. That's what I liked most about Mo's talk -- he teaches us a structured approach to building a *system*. Here's the course that Mo references several times in the talk: www.jointaro.com/course/maximize-your-productivity-as-a-software-engineer/

There is just something about a classic powerpoint template on a new youtube video where you know that you are in for a bangger video

Thanks for covering the research vs engineering framework. Very helpful for those who do projects in both domains!

Exceptional insights. Just the aura or “vibe” you two both have exudes rationality, purpose, and impeccable work habits. Loved this convo, grateful for your content!

Thanks for this one, as a career shifter from finance to tech. Now working as a software engineer this helps me become productive and become time efficient with the tasks I do. I appreciate this video so much!

This is literally GOLD advice. Thank you guys!

This is a great talk Mo. Thank you for taking time and sharing so much information and succint wisdom in a crisp format!!

Rahul Brings Content That Are mostly unanswered On the internet Great session👍

Thank you for scheduling this session.

great presentation. I've personally found that making decisions in advance w/ timeboxing helps me perform a lot better

System design thinking is super powerful. Great sharing!

with "reuse, dont redo", how do we make sure that we are not just someone who calls bunch of APIs without any deep understanding ? i get that we need to use lot of libraries to get things done and keeps getting easier and easier. how do we draw the line, between learning something deeper and not reinventing the wheel ?

Thanks a lot for scheduling this session. It’s was incredibly helpful ⭐️

Excellent talk! Thank you for sharing it!

Great Discussion. thank you

tbh i hate the whole reuse don't redo argument, most of the stuff i learned is by re-implementing algorithms and apps and i think that is the best way to learn for student's and juniors. If you are senior and/or you have to make something quick sure, but if reusing stuff and tools is what you are doing thru all of your career than you probably don't know how it really works and you you will not know what to do when smth is not working or when you can't use specific frameworks/libraries. And I'm not saying that every time you need math library you should write it yourself but that learning basics is at some point more important than being quick

Excellent!

Such a great presentation!!!!!

So to be efficient i asked ai to summarize this. Cheers 🤝 Social accountability groups can prevent procrastination and enhance motivation. ⚖ Balance productivity with self-care to avoid burnout. 🧘‍♂ Prioritize mindfulness and take regular breaks for recharging. ⏳ Use techniques like time blocking and the Pomodoro Technique for operational efficiency. 📚 Seeking feedback and continuous learning are crucial for improvement. 📱 Set boundaries with smartphones to maintain focus and efficiency. 🎯 Focus on the process and prioritize tasks for effective long-term goal achievement.

Best efficiency tip: Don't watch this video, it only talks about the simple tricks you have already heard a thousand times.

Awesome video

Efficiency to serve you, and not imposed by companies. Do it as a self growth virtue and buy as much time as possible to pursue your own goals.

i watched this at 2x

Man, this is great.

I played this back on 1.5 to make sure I'm being efficient

Watching this while procrastinating moving 😅

9 screens ... I need 9 screens .. got it 👍👍

Super good!

Very valuable

thank you so much.

I'm not sure that someone like him would be self-aware and fully appreciate his own intelligence. Especially if he's constantly surrounded with like minded people.

Thanks you!!!

What is meant by „leave code“ in the transcription?

was the inflection point 9 screens?

Can we get a link to the slides? (if you're willing to make it open source)

cool

😮

Rahul my wife left me. Any tips?

9 screens? gamers and streamers don't even need that much that's excessive in my opinion

2nd comment

HE KNOW NOTHING ABOUT CODING AND ONLY LEARN AFTER GRADUATED. BUT DUDE ONLY NEEDS 1 day to LEARN A LANGUAGE>

Most of his advice is useless since you need equal IQ as him,he is way too intelligent

rize > rescuetime, much better UI and UX
