It's pretty amusing to see this post coming from a guy who's publicly stated:
> I can't read a balance sheet or income statement or anything like that. I have to have someone explain it to me, every Board meeting.

- domdip 11y agoThere's no hypocrisy there. He's probably had to personally be super-cautious about opening his mouth about things like this.
- cwp 11y agoAs an engineer it's pretty easy to get used to dismissing opinions about technology from people that don't understand it. At times that's reasonable, but it's also easy to take it way too far. Sam seems to have a healthy respect for his own ignorance, and encourages others do to do the same, particularly in areas where that ignorance can have significant practical consequences. That's not "amusing", it's commendable.
