Paul Graham's Makers vs Managers - http://www.paulgraham.com/makersschedule.html

Wow that was very enlightening. I had been wondering why meetings used to bug me, and now I have no issue. Oh did I mention I am a manager now, I scheduled this in an appropriate time slot. I cannot wait to get back to hating meetings.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

> Beyond that, a solid understanding of scientific approaches to understanding is the second most important. Are there any good resources for learning more about this?

any ABET-accredited engineering curriculum ought to do.

Sorry for the delayed reply. I actually graduated from an ABET-accredited engineering program. I was looking for something more along the lines of "learning how to learn".

For example, a scientific analysis attempting to break down what "understanding" is, or evidence-based techniques for gaining understanding more quickly.
