Insights on Research Success by Hamming by dik_g is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Richard Hamming gave a talk titled "You and Your Research" where he discussed his observations about what differentiates scientists who make significant contributions from those who are forgotten. Some of his key observations included: - Luck alone does not account for major scientific achievements - great researchers often make multiple contributions through preparation and effort. - When studying great scientists like Einstein and Shannon up close, he saw repetitive good work that seemed beyond luck.
