nice to here engineer to engineer conversation very rarest of rare podcast at least in India, keep doing this type of podcasts with core tech guys looking forward more such conversations .
I'm certainly gonna come back many times to get refresher on brilliants insights shared here! For becoming a better engineer, motivation for delving deeper..
Regarding learning through open source projects, the best way IMO is to not look at latest version but rather the alpha or first stable version of project. Typically first versions do not have a lot of features and only has core components, hence you can learn a lot by reading significantly lesser code.
Great Podcast, Have a question bugging my mind: If there are no substitute of colleges yet, then why do the sincere students with good grades struggle to land a job? I too believe that knowledge never goes to waste, but also at the same time I feel not at all the curriculum taught in college can be put into use. Why would one invest their 4 years in learning bunch of things that they **might** use sometime in future (considering that even if they learn all of it, they still are not able to land a decent job) I instead go with the other approach, when you encounter some challenge, you study and solve it, meanwhile in the process you'll get introduced with new terms. Skim through those terms and note it down to go deep into it later. As you said "Reading a best practice even when you have read the context is not the same as actually experiencing that context" We do not get to experience the context of things in college, so we don't relate to them nor we are able to retain it. It is only when you have some surface level skills(and you are curious and question stuff), you are able understand the fundamentals(one or two level below) more impactfully.
One thing he said was, college teaches you how to learn. And no learning go waste, as he said with the example of servers stalling due to interrupt. And being a EE he could understand it

Thank you so much Ashutosh! Yes we are planning to have more such conversations. This is just the beginning.
I joined scaler in feb2022 and that is the best decision of my life. Never coded before and now I am solving DSA problems in just 30 sessions.
Hi Ansar, I am planning to join the same.. can we please have a quick discussion , if you dont mind
It’s such a pleasure to hear Amod speak.
Eagerly waiting to hear more of such engineering leaders in India. Thanks Scaler Academy.
Such an intellectually stimulating conversation !!. Please keep making more of it.
I'm certainly gonna come back many times to get refresher on brilliants insights shared here! For becoming a better engineer, motivation for delving deeper..
Wow this was so much fun and intense , please try to bring Kailash Nadh in one of your episodes

The questions arnav was asking is exactly what I wanted to ask
Happy to hear that! 🙌🏼
This is purely gold content
very strength and golden words conversation
one of the best engineering conversations i have ever heard !!!!!!!!!!!
love conversation of both Really awsome

Is this available on Apple Music/Spotify?
We need such deep tech conversations
Great insights. This podcast explains the real essence of being a Engineer and the importance of continuous learning in this industry.
Amod is awesome as usual. Interviewer did a great job keeping it honest and practical. Gold mine
Glad you enjoyed it
Loved the conversation! Eagerly waiting for the Episode 2.
Is it on Spotify podcast?
Hi Arnav, do you have an audio only version of this podcast?

great initiative!
Inspirational video -
Fantastic discussion!!
Thanks! Keep an eye out for more such videos! 😃
UNDERRATED!
good one
good
Alright, so which part speaks about profiting from this learning? I mean something better than merely getting a salary hike
Well he followed this approach to learning and is a billionaire now 🙃
@@ArnavGupta you know what I am asking for. But thanks for your comment regardless.
