In this humorous talk, Dave Thomas takes us through the learning progression emphasizing that the types of educational experiences required of a novice are quite different from those of more advanced students. Mixing in babies, table saws and programming we are reminded of the joy that exists in knowing something well.
Dave started programming computers when they filled whole rooms. He’s written a number of books, presents at conferences around the world, and he helped create many of the practices that are common in the industry today. His passion is finding ways to surf just at the cusp of anarchy, where all the interesting stuff happens.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at

what did this talk have to do with becoming a concert pianist. ok there are stages we go thru but he says nothing new about how to get thru them. i think the hardest stage for most learning is novice to competent. not competent to proficient. after his talk i'm worried about how many bad fighter pilots there may be around.
