Nice post. If I may add one coping skill that may work well for folks, especially those who strongly exhibit the "hyperactivity" in ADHD: One alternative to stream-of-thought writing when getting started is stream-of-thought spea

Big fan of Fred. But I am struggling to connect all the dots on the FCC statement and what the various companies responses will likely be and how long that will take?... Basically, there's new people at FCC, where will we see the effec

Thanks. I took a first quick look at the 3 sites you mentioned and will check them out again. I can see the value investing tilt and how that lends itself more to such discussion forums; as value investing can sometimes have this cool sort

Such fascinating comments on here. I think it would be interesting to find a provocative quote said by a computer scientist about art and then see how artists debate/discuss the quote's meaning. My 2 cents on this quote: 1. This q

I dig this comment. I think it speaks to the idea that when it comes to improving one's decision-making skills it's important to share your opinions / decisions with others when possible and also unabashedly share how you re

I second jbpetersen. What was a class on symbolic economies like? Sounds fascinating, even to know what was on the syllabus.

This is a great question. Sorry in advance I don't know of one. But it is something I think about often. I tend to read math and economics research papers (have PhD in the latter too if it matters) and have published. I think there are

I don't know what you do at Spotify but I have seen some of your company pitch books and your two paragraph analysis is one of the best succinct descriptions of the company I have read anywhere. Hope you're in management, if not y

In my experience they do know. Not every broker, not every trade you might ask about. Still even if your broker doesn't know, if there's enough guys on your trade floor someone is going to be able to call or message someone who do

Title says it all. Saved you a click. Personalities and skills impact a given team's success. Pretty sure this was already obvious. What is not addressed in this article is the implications of this. It might not be very PC to research

Don't worry Doc, your job is safe. Machines replacing high-touch specialized professions like doctors is not the risk here. The bigger immediate risk may be from machines making these jobs much much shittier, and then there's fall

If you have to ask this question, I would strongly suggest looking for a co-founder who already understands this stuff. The technical steps to do customer research and iterative product development can be taught, but in practice you are ent

Agree with this. The article seems quite focused on politics and Trump. It even ends on: "Most likely I will not watch The Sound of Music again for a long time, four or maybe even eight years..." Italics mine. In addition to the

Does Apple have a lead in innovation to even keep? You may be right, being on the ropes and declared dead can be a catalyst to motivate innovation. But that's not much help here. Apple is nowhere near the ropes or being declared dead;

Can't tell if this post is for real, but either way I respectfully disagree. Ever worn a Rolex? 99% of people won't recognize it. From those ppl that do recognize it and know the price, some will think its expensive and some will

Well that's for sure wrong too. That 3% for the industry is outdated, and whatever the current % I think it would refer to % of swiss watches not % of swiss mechanical watches. Anyway COSC is just marketing bullshit in my opinion, I do

I believe the % from Rolex that get certified is 100%. Not 3%. Most major high-end movements are better than -4/+6 seconds a day anyway. Mechanical watches are not trying to be accurate compared to quartz watches. Rolex watches could l
