@ai6yr @cwebber When mentoring students I often get the question - how do you figure things out so quickly.
Then I tell them that I've been messing with hardware and software since I was in my early teens - and I made tons of (innocent) mistakes.
When you get to be an adult you then know how to approach complex systems where you might not have this much margin.
Much of it is heuristics. Offloading heuristics (despite biases) is a VERY BAD IDEA.
