Comments like the ones you link to are the reason I blow so much time on HN. I have read everything patio11 has written about consulting , twice. As I've said on HN before his writing has changed my life in a few dramatic and interesting ways. Specifically this guy: http://www.kalzumeus.com/2011/07/08/business-psychology/ http://www.kalzumeus.com/2011/07/08/business-psychology/ I somehow missed that link you posted by tptacek but it truly is a gem. I'm at about stage 2 of that now and it's exactly what I needed to hear.
