2306-My English Record in Daily Work and Life

Elon:

Whatever requirement or constraint you have, it must come with a name not a department. Because you can't ask a department, you have to ask a person. And that person must agree that ... the must take responsiblity for that requirement.

无论你得到了什么需求或限制，它都必须对应一个人，而不是一个部门。因为你不能问一个部门，你必须问一个人。那个人必须同意。。。必须对该需求负责。

Elon:

Everyone's been trained in high school or college to that you got answer the question. So you can't tell the profession your question is dumb. You'll get a bad grade. You have to answer the quesion. So everyone's basically without knowing they got like a mental strained action on it, that is they are working optimizing the thing that simply should not exist.

每个人都在高中或大学接受过回答问题的培训。你不能告诉老师说他的问题是愚蠢的，否则你会得到一个糟糕的分数。你必须回答这个问题。所以每个人基本上都不知道自己在回答问题这件事上会有点精神紧张，也就是说，他们正在优化根本不应该存在的东西。（问题或需求本身是愚蠢的）

Step One:

Make your requirement less dumb.

让你的要求不那么愚蠢。

Step2:

Delete the part of process step. If you are not deleting the part of process step at least 10% a time, You are clearly not leading enough.

删除部分流程步骤。如果你一次没有删除10%的流程步骤，那么你显然不够有领导力。

Step3:

Simplify or Optimize. The 3rd step, not the 1st step. The reason is because it's very common... possibly the most common error of a smart engineer is to optimize a thing that should not exist.

简化或优化。第三步，而不是第一步。原因是它很常见。。。聪明工程师最常见的错误可能是优化了一个不应该存在的东西。

Step4:

And then finally you got to Step 4 which is accelerate cycle time. You are moving too slowly, go faster. But don't go faster until you work through the other three thing first. If you are digging your grave , don't dig it faster. Stop digging your grave.

最后进入第4步，即加速循环时间。你走得太慢了，要快一点。但不要在你完成前三件事之前跑得更快。否则你就像是在在给你自己挖坟墓，给自己挖坟墓当然不要挖得更快。别再挖自己的坟墓了。

Step5:

And then the final step is automate. And I personally made mistake of going backward on all five steps multiple times.

最后一步是自动化。我个人犯了一个错误，在所有五个步骤上多次倒退。
