Geoffrey Challen is a Computer Science Professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.With some professors, there's a before and after in your reality as a student—you see things differently. For me, that was Challen's CS 125 (now called CS 124).After I picked up my phone and called the head of physics, he said I couldn't take Physics 211 because my transcript didn't show calculus. Even though I knew it and had taught myself, he didn't let me take it and hung up on me. I found myself with an open spot, and it was this class I'd heard so much about—CS 125 with Geoffrey Challen. I'd heard it was tough, but he was unique and idiosyncratic, and that was interesting, so I took the bait.And it changed me. Not necessarily because of anything I learned, although it helped my understanding of how technology worked, but because of how he saw the world. He spoke openly, questioned norms, and never just went through the motions. Unlike typical professors—front-row nerds and teacher's pets—Challen is a hacker, a rebel. He fell asleep in classes, sat in the back, resisted authority, and now builds his courses around that spirit.His iconic cap reads τέχνῃ—the ancient Greek root of the word technology—which means "the art and skill of making." For Challen, teaching technology isn't just about tools or code; it's about guiding students to become creators. After all, perhaps we shouldn't be called Homo sapiens (the wise ones), but Homo technologicus—those who craft, build, and innovate through τέχνῃ.Challen might not be considered the wisest by some of his colleagues, but the future—reflected in today's students—seems to know better. They don't call him “professor” as much as they call him “dope” or “based.”That's what you get with Challen—not just a professor, but someone who shows you a different way to see the world, to resist conformity, to build things that you want. Someone who proves that being yourself, even when it costs you, is worth it.EPISODE LINKS:Geoffrey Challen's Website: https://www.geoffreychallen.com/Geoffrey Challen's Learn CS Website: https://www.learncs.online/Geoffrey Challen's Society and Technology Class: https://archive.is/SdNAnGeoffrey Challen's Reddit Account: https://www.reddit.com/user/geoffreychallen/comments/?sort=topBooks MentionedWhen Things Go Missing by Kathryn Schulz: https://archive.is/J5ztkLincoln in the Bardo by George Saunders: https://amzn.to/4k0FdbPBeing Wrong by Kathryn Schulz: https://amzn.to/43Umit4Coders by Clive Thompson: https://amzn.to/4jJk1GSThe Overstory by Richard Powers: https://amzn.to/4mUCG5gBewilderment by Richard Powers: https://amzn.to/446zYSSThe Ground Beneath Her Feet by Salman Rushdie: https://amzn.to/45fxEdx

A Note from James:Cal Newport has written such great books about how to be more productive, more creative, the titles of the books speak for themselves: 'So Good They Can't Ignore You', 'Deep Work', and this latest one is called 'Slow Productivity'. It's about how you ultimately succeed in getting more productive by going slower and sometimes doing nothing. Cal tells us how and why and we always have an interesting conversation. So here is Cal Newport!Episode Description:This episode explores the nuanced concept of 'Slow Productivity,' as championed by Cal Newport, across an engaging dialogue that sheds light on achieving more by intentionally slowing down. Newport, making his fifth appearance on the podcast, underscores the counterintuitive productivity philosophy through his journey, inspirations from his books like 'Digital Minimalism,' and the pivotal role of mindful work habits. Referencing historical and contemporary figures like Benjamin Franklin and John Grisham, Newport articulates the significance of deliberate practice, the fallacy of equating busyness with productivity, and the benefits of focused work. Additionally, the interview captures a personal milestone of applying for full professorship, emphasizing the importance of scholarly impact and steady progress. Through a blend of personal anecdotes, historical wisdom, and critique of modern work culture's inefficiencies, the discussion advocates for a transformative approach to work and creativity that values depth, reflection, and the strategic delegation of tasks.Episode Summary:00:00 Introduction to Cal Newport and His Work02:30 Cal's Journey as an Author and His Writing Process04:09 The Importance of Stories Over Studies in Books07:42 The Role of Workload in Productivity14:22 The Impact of Technology on Productivity14:52 The Shift to Remote and Hybrid Work20:30 The Importance of Structuring Your Day25:28 The Balance Between Hustle and Slow Productivity30:59 The Misconceptions of Young People About Work31:06 Balancing Grad School and Writing Books31:13 The Importance of Time Management32:03 The Reality of Workload and Social Interactions32:37 The Mythology of Speed in Work34:36 The Paradox of the Relaxed Rhodes Scholar35:12 The Role of Time in Productivity36:40 The Importance of Quality Over Quantity38:26 The Impact of Pseudo Productivity54:11 The Role of AI in Writing and Academia01:00:03 The Journey to Tenure and Beyond ------------What do YOU think of the show?

Karrie Karahalios is a Computer Science Professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where she conducts research on the impact of computer science on society, including areas like algorithmic auditing, community-centered computing, social media, and human-computer interaction. In a world often driven by haste and the urge to build for the sake of building, Dr. Karahalios stands out in her field, much like an oasis in a desert. She offers a refreshing perspective, advocating for more thoughtful approaches to technology and social tools. Her philosophy entails not rushing to construct colossal empires at the expense of societal well-being but, instead, taking measured steps to avoid the perils of recklessness. Dr. Karahalios explores the interaction between humans and technology from a viewpoint that transcends mere functionality and deeply considers the impact on individuals and communities. Her academic journey, from earning a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering at MIT to her time in the MIT Media Lab, has uniquely equipped her to appreciate diverse perspectives and tackle complex problems. Her research stands as a testament to her dedication to deciphering the intricate dynamics of networked electronic spaces. Yet, she also takes on the role of a champion and a relentless fighter against the tyranny of algorithms that increasingly govern our lives. In this era, where social media platforms wield the power to control who can access and broadcast to the public, where medical devices operate on proprietary algorithms that render their outcomes unquestionable, and where algorithms can even make legal decisions within courtrooms, Dr. Karahalios's work takes on paramount significance. One of the significant and bold steps Dr. Karahalios has taken is suing the government to ensure that researchers can continue to investigate discrimination on the internet. Supported by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), their journey underscores the importance of pushing against self-helplessness and pursuing justice, even when the odds seem daunting. After the interview, we found ourselves in Dr. Karahalios's classes, not just for learning but for the inspiring post-class discussions. Dr. Karahalios, a fusion of brilliance and kindness, sets a remarkable example we hope others will follow. Her influence extends beyond academia, sparking our imaginations and guiding us to innovative projects. She embodies the future we aspire to create in technology and society.

Neal Davis is a Computer Science Professor at UIUC and Urbit's director of developer experience. Since we started the UIUC Talkshow, we've said the show is about people who are sane in a way most people are crazy. Neal Davis is exactly one of them. It's not surprise he believes we need to be weirder. He started as a nuclear engineer but throughout his life, he's reflected on the definition of a "good and wise life." This led him to want to "elevate sentience" in his life and the life of others. A beautiful and unique pursuit. That philosophy guides the type of work he devotes himself to and that's he how he found Urbit, an ambitious project to rebuild and rethink the internet from first principles. Join us on this conversation to learn more about Urbit, Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs), Balaji's Network States, and why the best things that happen to you are accidents.

On the show today are two Mathies who overwhelmingly convince Catherine and Steve that Mathing is a creative endeavor, despite it's bad wrap in the creative world. Jason Hartline is a Computer Science Professor at Northwestern University, and works in the world of teaching applied mathematics and his path has taken him through Cornell University and the University of Washington, with stops at Microsoft and Harvard. He has a couple patents under his belt and too many publications and papers to mention in polite company. Jana Frank's work is equally impressive and important, as she optimizes learning in another corner of the math universe. Jana is an owner of four Chicagoland Mathnasiums and expert in the Mathnasium Philosophy, that stands behind a very successful and effective math-only learning center for kids in grades Pre-K through 12. Mathnasium's approach is all about helping kids really understand math by making it fun. This takes significant understanding and creativity. Previously, Jana taught math in Jr high as well as 4th and 5th grade in the Chicago Public Schools. She has degrees in developmental psychology and a Masters in education. In this episode we learn that Jason and Jana are amazing and create in the world of circus and aerial arts. But today, rather than dig into their high-flying circus work, we explore creativity through the math lens. Both Catherine and Steve learn just how creative one can be in math with the help of two experts who you will soon learn, bring incredible passion to their work. Additionally, both Catherine and Steve reveal new sides of themselves suggesting that grabbing their strings and flying their kites in the way similar to that of Jason and Jana is not completely out of the question.

A Principal Engineer at Lyft, co-inventor of Norton Antivirus, and a college programming Professor? This week, we talk to Carey Nachenberg. From his experience as both a Software Engineer and Computer Science Professor, Carey shares with us why Engineers - who we may think of as recipients of stories - should tell stories themselves, as well as why Storytelling alone is not sufficient for innovations. Carey Nachenberg is Principal Engineer at Lyft, Computer Science Professor at UCLA, formerly Principal Engineer at Google, and the senior-most engineer in Symantec. He is also author of The Florentine Deception - a cyber-security thriller - and a rock climber.
Welcome to another episode of Develomentor. Today's guest is Evan Korth. Evan Korth has worn many hats as an active member of NYC’s academic and innovation communities since ’99 — computer science professor, developer, investor, advisor, founder, expert witness, researcher, board member, coach and mentor.Evan also advises Flybridge Capital and sits on the NYU Innovation Venture Fund’s investment committee. Evan’s work in helping his students find opportunities at startups in early 2000’s led him to cofound his first non-profit, HackNY, to help federate the next generation of hackers for the New York City innovation community. After helping the Bloomberg administration create NYC’s first two software engineering high schools, Fred Wilson and Evan co-founded CSNYC in order to ensure all 1.1 million NYC public school students have an opportunity to study computer science. In September 2015, Mayor Deblasio announced a $81mm public private partnership with CSNYC to meet its mission within ten years.Today, Evan serves on the boards of hackNY, CSNYC and GirlsWhoCode.If you are enjoying our content please leave us a rating and review or consider supporting usQuotes“When I was offered an opportunity to teach a course in 1999 at NYU I thought, wow, what an opportunity to get over my fear of public speaking. I get to talk about something I know really well so I’d have the confidence to speak about it to undergraduates who wanted that knowledge.”“We threw the first college hackathon as far as we know in April 2010. Then we started a summer fellowship program where we got the best hackers we could across the country, brought them to New York for the summer, and put them up in NYU dorms. They interned at different startups during the day and we had an educational program for them at night.”—Evan KorthKey MilestonesWhy did Evan choose to get a degree in Accounting?What was it like working as a sports agent?What inspired Evan to leave Bruce Levy after 8 years?How did Evan become a computer science professor?Evan founded two non-profits, HackNY and the NYC Foundation for Computer Science Education.

In the seventh episode of Deep Neural Notebooks, I interview Shimon Whiteson. Shimon sir is a Computer Science Professor at the University of Oxford, where he leads the Whiteson Research Lab. He is also a Data Scientist at Waymo (formerly the Google Self Driving Car Project). His research specialises in Reinforcement Learning (RL), Cooperative Multi-Agent RL, to be precise. So this interview is all in the context of Reinforcement Learning. We talk about his journey - how he started with Machine Learning & RL. I ask him about his thoughts on the state of RL - about how the field has progressed and changed since he started, about how it has become so popular in the last few years, and about the challenges being faced. We also talk about his research at Waymo, about recent projects from his lab, and about the scope and future of telepresence robots, one of which was developed under his guidance. We also talk about the infamous Reward Hypothesis in the context of RL and Philosophy. In the end, he also shares some advice for people starting out with RL.

For this episode of The New Stack Makers, TC Currie is joined by Dr. Eric Brewer, Google Fellow and VP of Infrastructure at Google where he's the architect of Cloud Native systems at massive scale. He's also been a Computer Science Professor at UC Berkeley since 1994. TC caught up with Dr. Brewer at the recent Service Mesh Days in San Francisco. “Istio at its core decouples developers from operations,” Brewer said. That decoupling lets both sides go faster and with more confidence. Traditionally, when developers are writing a service, they worry a lot about the API, what are the methods, how does it work? But when you're deploying microservices, then you start need to think about other questions. What are the policies that are calling this service? Does it have quota? Does it have a denial of service? How does it get authenticated? How is it secured? All of these questions that are not about what the API does, but are operations pieces.
Reviewing the Week's Discussion on Computer Science in both High School and College.

Many institutions teach single, large project courses with clients from industry as capstone courses for their engineering curricula. These classes are a good way of teaching industry relevant software engineering practices to students. The students work on a real problem posed by a real client, and develop and deliver a solution within a single semester. Mostly these classes are taught at the senior and master level. In this talk, Computer Science Professor, Bernd Bruegge will discuss how at the Technische Universitaet Muenchen (TUM) they teach this type of class at the sophomore level, using XCode as the development platform and iOS devices as the target platform.
