I understand your point of view, at the same time when I read that : >For me to expose my company to the liability of doing business with your company, e.g. give you credit terms, I would rather like to know your financial soundness. I&#

I've incorporated in the UK but I kind of wonder if I made the right choice. It's a fantastic country, but one thing that bothers me and that I discovered too late - only a few weeks ago - is privacy. This is a real one, pay atten

I see your point, but this can happen both if you created a want-based venture or a need-based venture - and marketed the product correctly in the later case. Perhaps this is out of the scope of the article as it doesn't concern itself

>The argument that unexpected collaboration happens when people are forced to go to the office is a joke and certainly not worth protecting when you consider all the other negative effects of commuting and working in a central location:

I understand the reasoning but the need for capital depends on your situation. For example if you want to start a software business and are a good developer you need no capital. The only thing you need is time to work on your venture. It mi

If the Facebook OAuth module is closed, if their comments module is closed, or if their advertising platform is closed overnight sure there will be waves. But the part you mention actually refers to the easiness to close a Facebook account

A speculation will remain a speculation my friend, no need to try to make it look scientific. I think the point is correctly argumented, then you might agree with the arguments or not.

I love your reasoning, very insightful thanks a lot for sharing. This is the kind of wisdom and out-of-the-box thinking I like to read.

by r2dnb 11y ago
Amen. I think the reason people are afraid of sharing is that very few people practice continuous learning. They keep using what they learned 5, 10, 20 years ago, therefore - to their mind - if they share it, they are left with nothing. I d

I didn't know people were so generous. The experience I have is that all people want to keep their knowledge for themselves. In all the companies I passed by - including Fortune 40 ones - the documentation was non existent. In one of t

Yes you got it all, now the next logical step is : "Stop being a technical person only", this is what PG is saying. My advice is keep doing your stuff, but aggressively start building your product-based business on the side. I enc

Your point makes sense, however look : You develop a software and are the PM / product lead. You get paid 8 months, while your client makes $8,000 per month during the next 5 years. This is the market rate. The market PG refers to is n

I agree 100% on your point about flexibility. I personally value three things : fair compensation (both because I know I'm good and because I don't like to let people make a number on me), the company's mission and it's

As reserved as I've been with the "Refragmentation" essay, I have to say that this one is the kind of PG's essay I like. I'd add that with governments printing billions of dollars a year, it's intriguing to eve

Interesting article, the insight of PG is much valuable but I find his attempt to depict a fragmentation model unconvincing. While this model captures the dynamics at play, it fails to explain them and to introduce an easier way to act on t
