my PhD advisor once told me that he can mould people in various ways in the 5 years they spend with him, but the one thing that simply doesn't move is their basal motivation level

Topic in the Book Club was Quarrel. Enjoyed reading from the translated Sanskrit poetry collection by @AnushaSRao2 & @suhasm , a delightful selection of poems. Stumbled upon it through the @bicblr Podcast. Worth a listen and the book is a must on every poetry lover's bookshelf.

Similar: Steven Chu had no papers and no results from his PhD, but Berkeley hired him as faculty. Nobel in 1997 for laser cooling. Difficult to differentiate top 0.1% from top 1%, but the 0.001% just hits you in the face.

When Ken Wilson received tenure from Cornell, he had one(1) submitted paper. Obviously it was the right decision as Wilson went on to revolutionize physics

the difficulty of identifying talent: John Jumper had no well-cited first author pubs or awards for several years after his PhD. Would have been ignored by most fellowships, awards. Now suddenly a Nobel less than 10 years after PhD.

It's common to think that “following along” is the same as learning – like, if you can follow along with a video, book, lecture, whatever, without feeling confused, then you’re learning. While this might “feel” like learning, it's not. The feeling is completely artificial.

@suhasm Okay, I wrote a post on something like this, doing my own (crude) economic analysis https://t.co/DOkTcMa1tS The key idea in my opinion is that replacing gas peakers is easier than replacing gas baseload—but how MUCH easier matters a lot wondering what your NREL friend thinks
