1/ Success at startups is about moving from religion to science.
@rickygervais and @StephenAtHome are going to help me prove it (with a supporting clip from Sean Bean and Robert De Niro).
2/ At the moment, startups are essentially religious in the beginning. They are founded and funded based on two factors:
1) a strong belief that isn't commonly held 2) their ability to convince others to believe likewise
1/ “She just thinks about what Ivan must think his chances are…and she wonders why men are such terrible emotional statisticians.” @charles_yu
This is a thread about reading.
2/ I have odd reading habits. For at least the last ten years, I have read only fiction (except for journals, papers, news, and such). It is my belief that non-fiction can be summarized and that if I wait, someone usually will. And I say that as the author of a nonfiction book.
