Programando voy, programando vengo (Foro Internet Meeting Point 2014)

"Programando voy, programando vengo" (Foro Internet Meeting Point 2014)

Talk delivered to an audience of 400+ high school students at Foro Internet Meeting Point 2014 (http://internetmeetingpoint.net)

The pre-talk description (in Spanish) can be found at:

Main idea:

1) You live your life: be passionate, stay motivated, work hard and think out of the box.

2) Software Engineering allows us to put that into practice, and more important, it allows us to make our dreams come true. Robotics makes it so fun :)

3) "Stay hungry, stay foolish" [1]. And... "Be a pirate!" [2]

  1. “I've never really viewed myself as particularly talented. I've viewed

    myself as slightly above average in talent. And where I excel is ridiculous, sickening, work ethic. You know, while the other guy is sleeping? I'm working. While the other guy is eating? I'm working.” - Will Smith
