What did they mean by this?
It deserved mentioning and it took up a couple paragraphs but at no point was it ever made clear what exactly needs to be mitigated or handled, other than vague statements about how it is undesirable in a start-up.
- tomalpha 9y agoThe bias bit comes across (to me) similarly to the rest of the piece and seems to boil down to: ask questions and make observations to make sure that it’s the right fit for you. That is to say there isn’t necessarily a single right answer but there’s probably a right answer for you. Not that there aren’t plenty of pretty universally wrong answers too...
- ihsw2 9y agoWell, after giving it some thought, it seemed the author was trying to encourage awareness of emotional decision making. Being too attached to a product that has no business model, for example, and deluding yourself into thinking "I just have to explain it the right way and people will love it!"
