It was great chatting with Sean on the Mindscape podcast. Lots came up: language, category theory, topology, algebra, quantum probability, Shannon entropy, and more. And I love Sean's description of professional mathematicians as “engineers of concepts”!

The Feynman-technique of learning:
> Pick a topic you wanna understand and start studying it
> Pretend to teach the topic to a classroom
> Go back to the books when you get stuck
> Simplify and use analogies!
• If you wanna master something, teach it. 🧠

I dislike the phrase "AWS outage" since its really "AWS region X outage" . It simply highlights whose applications are deployed in a single region 🤣

I'd like to add that if you're interested in joining the team, we are hiring (clima.caltech.edu/join-our-t…). Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions.
Some personal news: next week I'll be joining the @ClimateMachine team at @Caltech building a next-generation climate model in #JuliaLang. I've had a great time at @JuliaComputing, working alongside fantastic colleagues, and am really proud of what we've achieved.
