In the middle of a discussion that was meant to be about computer networking, we ended up diving into Eater's full career trajectory. Stenhaug and I (Grant) were so fascinated by this that we decided to just pull that whole section of the discussion out as its own podcast.

The second Q&A session for 3blue1brown. We chose the questions that we thought made for the best discussion, which includes whether or not a knack for math is innate, favorite improv games, whether IT will always be an industry approachable to people who are self-taught without degrees, and many more.
Question thread, with many more shorter answers from Grant.

The conversation here revolves around these questions, but not with a few tangents, including how David Labaree actually being a really nice guy and a certain absurd stance on the value of software engineering.
