This is a very nice piece: bit.ly/2TcSZz1. @johnsalvatier points out a fundamental feature of #invention, whether in research or creating technology (thread)
You have a problem and can see/measure misc. details of it. Some of these are key to solving the problem, and they are right before your eyes. But they are INTRINSICALLY not distinguishable from the rest until you know how to solve the problem=which ones are important.
As we search for the key details, we need both hard work, careful scrutiny of facts, constructing and testing models of reality, AND thinking about what we're not thinking about. And it'll be excruciating along the way.
@ekelsic @samsinai @hannu @srikosuri @LindaBGoodman @lexrovner @atraydixit @rmstoner @rhomsany @HanadieYousef @GaurabC and everyone else in #deeptech startups; It's not you, it's #invention.
