  Biggest drawback these days is funding (Govt. is not liking research with all fund cuts) and long term opportunities for folks doing research.

  I want to watch the presentation, is there a recording, does anyone know? When the Overview slide starts with "Don’t do overview slides, it’s bad practice", I feel like I'm missing quite some context here.

  This seems like a pile of generally good, and some non-obvious advice, that's also useful outside of the boundaries of ML (it would also apply to a PhD in Neuroscience for example).

  The best research advice is always unsolicited. The official version tells you how it is supposed to work, not how it actually does.
