Work Smarter

Work Smarter
There is no “right way,” but there are certainly smarter ways
Ask others how they have successes
Be reflective about your process and improve

Enjoy Constant Learning
Even experienced tech people start projects not knowing how they’ll be solvedNo one knows everythingSpend a bunch of time to learn something new for the long term

Enjoy Constant Learning
Get used to being in the dark and learning the new
Technology changes very rapidly
Learn general principles, practice just-in-time-learning
Learn to “be the computer”
Sometimes you have to pay-it-forward
Even experienced tech people start projects not knowing how they’ll be solvedNo one knows everythingSpend a bunch of time to learn something new for the long term

Break the Project Down1.Mount and calibrate sensors2.Get data from sensors3.Filter noise4.Calculate position5.Send position to main code6.Test in real world

Break the Project Down
Just get started, don’t try to solve the whole thingGather bits of code and referencesFind examples of how others have done something similar
Create little experiments for each partSolve the easy parts firstSolve the hardest parts first
Rebuild once you have it figured it out

Stealing is Okay
I had to design a custom sensor system for the Infiniti Interactive Mirrors that involved two sensors for each mirror which triangulated the location of the hand gesture. Thisrequired some trigonometry.

Stealing is Okay
Code is widely given awaystackoverflow for questions/answersopen source Libraries, e.g. jQuerythousands of examples/tutorials

Evolve Your Design
![Page 15: Technology and Programming Methods](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103001/5579b014d8b42ac1148b5094/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Evolve Your Design
Prioritize features, and don’t lock design too early
Let your prototypes and failures influence the design
Take advantage of discoveries / mistakes
Abuse the technology
Scope design to time / ability

Enjoy Constant Failure
![Page 18: Technology and Programming Methods](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103001/5579b014d8b42ac1148b5094/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
It never works the first time
Get good at debugging
Anticipate and design for failures
Some bugs can take days to fix :-(
Enjoy Constant Failure

Test Constantly
![Page 20: Technology and Programming Methods](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103001/5579b014d8b42ac1148b5094/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Test Constantly
Each time you make a change
Have others use and abuse it
You’ll need real content
Schedule time for testing and bug-fixing

Be Persistent
![Page 22: Technology and Programming Methods](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103001/5579b014d8b42ac1148b5094/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Be Persistent
Be confident there’s a way to do it
When it takes way too long, you are learning
Learn to work around roadblocks
Set aside a problem and come back to it later
