- strlen 12y agoReally looking forward to a reply here! Pg did write a bit about what he has learned from tlb: http://www.paulgraham.com/gh.html http://www.paulgraham.com/gh.html (see the "Recognition" paragraph)
- endlessvoid94 12y agoThere's arguably no single greater environment than learning from great people. Communication, choosing your battles, patience, emotional intelligence, just to mention the managerial and partnership aspects. Too many technical / marketing skills to name. I come from a 100% technical background, and I can tell the skills I've acquired in the past year will last me a long, long time.
- tlb 12y agoSeveral, including pg and rtm. The hardest skill is knowing what could be simplified, and what's good enough.
