Even if you're a New Yorker-calibre writer, you won't be able to write anything of "quality" in less than an hour.
Now imagine if you're not a New Yorker-calibre writer!
(I'm a pretty snobby reader and still like the occasional techie-founder post. You don't have to be a copywriting wizard to write something substantive, but it isn't enough to just commit text to the page. You can tell when someone has thought deeply and laboured over a piece of writing. The idea that you can write something worthy of other people's time in one hour is cut-and-dry clickbait.)
- ozim 8y agoIf someone has some insight and just writes about it and I get some value from it, like it is neat idea that is quality for me. Long post with a lot of research in area that turns out is not interesting for me does not have quality for me. Maybe quality would be that person writes first paragraph in a way that makes it clear it is not interesting for me.
