Some people on here are probably going to flame this idea because it glorifies someone showing off what they are doing, but I think they are missing the point: this is just a tool to keep yourself accountable (a la the Seinfeld calendar). F

I was expecting a more in depth look at the different markets these two play in, like how much was the search market worth and how much was Google capturing at IPO vs. twitter's relative numbers. I think really the hard part in compari

Disingenuous meaning not truthful, which it was not.

I get the snark. But using their own words against them is very disingenuous. Recognizing people for being good people, as the author did, should be completely separate from a product that you believe is a bad product.

I don't know how to define "willpower" so I found the initial thesis of his article off-putting. However, Mr. Adams then appears to go into how he manages broad terms that are vague (like willpower) by structuring that term a

MM is a commonly accepted abbreviation. My reasoning is that I am a biologist and m stands for mole and M stands for mole. Confusing? Yes! So I separate the two!

Trivializing her position to accessory-driven conclusions is misleading the $26MM/year salary she was receiving at Burberry. Clearly her role was something bigger like strategy and making the brand memorable. I would hope that is the p

Admittedly, I am not a Burberry-china strategist, but it appears a direct quote from her in this article seems to say the exact opposite of China being a growth market for Burberry: "She added that future growth would likely come from

Oh, sorry, I completely agree with the last part about stagnant positions and the need to create new divisions/branches within companies. The reason I used the word ego in this individual's case was bc this is technically a "

For sure! It's like a head coach of a small school going to be a co-offensive coordinator at a major school: like Texas A&M :) (shameless former student analogy)

Firstly, a little aggressive for my taste, but you're welcome to your own thoughts. Secondly, no I did not catch it, it had to have been a minor footnote; care to educate me?

Why link to this Forbes article when it adds zero value to the original article? (which isn't long either) The author of the Forbes piece literally writes an exact replica of the original article and doesn't teach us anything new.

"Egocentricism" Aggressive term. He may be being egotistical, or he may be mentioning his specific device to give clarity on what was actually prohibited in his experience. No need to call him egotistical and it surely wasn't

Thank you very much for the breakdown! The connection to the article would be that we shouldn't overgeneralize a percentage of success for an individual?

by TheBiv 13y ago
Color me dense, but I don't understand this point. The author clearly had aptitude to be successful, but if we were to randomly put a percentage on his aptitude that weighted him above the average, it would still probably be less than

This link told me nothing about "how". I learned more from HN comments than I did from the link. Shame on link-bait.

Awesome example of a company that doesn't try to be everything to everyone and just focuses on the one thing they do very well. Just please don't try and emulate their success in your startup, bc it likely won't work. These g

This is going to be not good news for SEO people that just have affiliate ads and used to do things like Celebrity Net Worth bc now the user does not have to click on their site as Google will give them the answer they need.

This feels like TMZ. Other than critiquing and learning from the things he says in response to it, I see very little value in this. I also don't like fun; so there's that! :)
