Consejos para mejorar
Aunque la conferencia es de un investigador muy importante y multipremiado y dirigida a personas que también podrían haber llegado a serlo encontré bastante inspiradora la transcripción de la conferencia de Richard W. Hamming, You and Your Research que vi en la bitácora de Cameron Marlow, en Richard Hamming: "You and your research".

Hay muchas cosas señalables pero me quedaré con su resumen final (aunque sea en negativo):

In summary, I claim that some of the reasons why so many people who have greatness within their grasp don't succeed are: they don't work on important problems, they don't become emotionally involved, they don't try and change what is difficult to some other situation which is easily done but is still important, and they keep giving themselves alibis why they don't. They keep saying that it is a matter of luck. I've told you how easy it is; furthermore I've told you how to reform. Therefore, go forth and become great scientists!
