    "As developers, we are asked to absorb even more information than ever before. More APIs, more documentation, more patterns, more layers of abstraction. Now Twitter and Facebook compete with Email and Texts for our attention, keeping us up-to-date on our friends' dietary details and movie attendance second-by-second. Does all this information take a toll on your psyche or sharpen the saw? Is it a matter of finding the right tools and filters to capture what you need, or do you just need to unplug? Is ZEB (zero email bounce) a myth or are there substantive techniques for prioritizing your live as a developer? Join Scott Hanselman as we explore this topic...perhaps we'll crowd-source the answers!"

    Great talk. Take away:
    * Simplify email folders
    * Check email only in the afternoon with time box
    * Teach other people how to treat you by saying no
    * Don't put energy into something you don't enjoy
    * Conserve your keystrokes
    * Use less than 5 sentences in any email
    * Put everything to one trusted source
    * Observe internal and external interruption
    * Be a single tasker
    * Don't setup guilt systems

      You think that his talks are really really good and you should watch all of them talk is good just wait until you searched all of Scots videos and then watch all of them at one and a half to two times speed on your computer Surface pro 3. On the surface pro 3 you can watch videos at 2 x speed and that way you can watch a lot of good videos on a very very good computer and you could become a really good developer.

      Don't you think that all of Scott Hanselman videos are really gd. I think you should get a surface pro 3 so that you could download all these videos and watch them at 2 X today you could go thru an amazing amount of good videos and become really good developers really fast

    "effectiveness is doing the right things, effeciency is doing things right"
    wrong
    effectiveness is about the magnitude of the output. it is about the amount of times our intent is confirmed.
    effeciency is about the utilization of the input. it is about the ratio of confirmations relative to something else.
    in order to be effecient you must be doing the right thing as a prerequisite.
    to be effective, you need positive results but don't need to be doing the right thing. you could be going the wrong thing but since you are measuring postives, not positives compared to negatives, or positives compared to positives of other approaches, you will still get results able to confirm your bias.
    "effectiveness is picking a direction to run. effeciency is running as fast as you can in that direction"
    wrong again.
    effectiveness is the speed you run a direction, efficiency is both the direction and goal.
    effectiveness can be ineffecient if you choose the wrong direction, because the error of your direction choice exacerbates the distance you must run. if you choose to run in the wrong direction, you can hit milestones in time or completeness, but
    the effectiveness of a project is the magnitude of the output. an effeciency is the requirements of a type of input.
    if one choice allows for 2 results per hour, and another choice gives 1 result per half hour. the standardized hour option is about effectiveness, while the shorter period is more effecient because it allows for change.
    "to be effective means to do right things" wrong. to be effective means to have an effect.
    "effeciency is about economy" wrong. to be efficient means the effect maximizes the correct constraint.
    "effeciency and effectiveness are related terms" they aren't related they refer to different parts of the same relationship.
    effectiveness is the numerator and is the magnitude of the output.
    effeciency is the denominator and is the magnitude of resources per output.
    they are dependent and independant variables respectively.
    you can have time efficiency or resource efficiency or capital effeciency. but you can only sorta have capital effectiveness. that is because the output or results are dependant on the inputs.
    lets say you have a machine which breaks every hour for 10 minutes. then that piece of capital has a 70 minute work cycle. the work cycles effeciency is 6/7. the work effectiveness is nonsense because the amount of work it produces isn't comparable to anything. whether it breaks and does nothing or whether the work is stretched out operating slower without breaking lacks effectiveness distinctions. you can only compare the machine to other machines, or to time, or to resources, but in isolate there is effect but not effectiveness.
    "it will stimulate the pleasure center of the brain" wrong.

    Omg 48:28, as I listen to him I stare at my pile of books right here on my desk:
    1. Biocentrism
    2. Pauli and Jung
    3. Quantum, Einstein, Bohr, and The Great Debate About The Nature Of Reality.
    Sigh..
