Coding Fast and Slow: Applying Kahneman's Insights to Improve Development Practices and Efficiency

How does behavioral psychology connect to coding? This talk explores how understanding and managing your mental energy can transform the way you work. Using accessible research, including Daniel Kahneman’s concepts of “fast” and “slow” thinking, we’ll dive into how different types of thinking impact decision-making and productivity. We’ll also discuss how to conserve mental fuel, so you have the focus and clarity needed for critical tasks—even at the end of a demanding day.

In addition to understanding how our minds work, we’ll talk about practical techniques for managing time and allocating mental resources effectively. This includes strategies to reduce context switching, avoid wasting mental energy on low-priority tasks, and stay focused on what really matters. By using your mental energy wisely, you’ll be able to maintain productivity and avoid burnout.
