Yes what she said was spot on, really impressed me.

I saw one of the children with the classic ‘shaking leg’ that comes with intense concentration. :) At work they know I’m doing something cool when my leg starts to shake. LoL

I loved the comment by the redheaded girl (I guess Charlie Brown is in that class, too ;) ), “A lot of people don’t know how computers work. I don’t want to be part of that demographic.” It’s refreshing to hear kids who know what words like “demographic” and “functionality” mean – around here, you’re lucky if they know what “graph” and “function” mean. :(

“Success always has a thousand parents. Failure is always an orphan.” — an olde saw

“Failure is not only an option, it’s a requirement.” — some olde buzzard engineer

“I won’t hire anyone who has never failed. That also means they’ve never tried.” — all of my bosses

In reply to MuddyDogs.

I (re)discovered recenty that attention to detail is somewhat more important for hardware than software … like developing software in the days of punch cards and rota access to the computer, 2 week turnarounds between debug sessions sharpens the mind in the ‘immediately pre tape out’ phase! Fortunately my 2 unholy cock-up sets of PCBs only cost a grand total of £19.

“From failure we learn, from success not so much”
(Meet The Robinsons, 2007)

I learnt far more from programs that didn’t work, than from ones that did. Like persistence, stubbornness, bloody mindedness, logic, the value of attention to detail and, occasionally, a computer language. 30 years later and I still get exactly the same buzz when it finally works.

Speaking of which, just done a course assignment to calculate Pi using recursion in Erlang on a Pi :-D

In my new role as STEM Ambassador I’m so looking forward to engaging in exactly this kind of activity with local schools – an arc of conecpt, simple PCB design, software, PCB return from manufacture, a team hand build, turn it on and the joy of stuff working. Or the misery of failure. Failure is critically important for the success to feel even sweeter.
