Confirmation bias is twisting the facts to fit your beliefs. Critical thinking is bending your beliefs to fit the facts.

Seeking the truth is not about validating the story in your head. It's about rigorously vetting and accepting the story that matches the reality in the world.

The problem with rewarding people for writing code is that sometimes the most productive thing you can do is remove code.

Most of us are politically in the middle. Don't let the far left or far right convince you otherwise.

Bugs do not appear by magic. Somebody was paid to write them. Somebody was encouraged to work in a way that bugs would be created. The inevitability of bugs (beyond a very small number) is a myth. Their presence reflects the culture.

[Lex Fridman @lexfridman]

I am not right wing or left wing. I am a human being who listens, empathizes, learns, and thinks.

People want to assign labels to each other so they can judge without trying to understanding a person.

Labels lessen our capacity for empathy and free thought.

[Julia Grace @jewelia]

One of the largest sources of confusion & frustration:

1) a decision needs to be made
2) it's unclear who has the *authority* to make the decision
3) it's unclear who will be *held accountable* for the decision

Chaos ensues.

A paradox of leadership: the more successful you are, the less obvious your involvement will be (and less praise you'll get). The opposite is also true.

[steve blank @sgblank]

Exploitation of existing business models requires relentless execution. Exploration of new business models requires agile innovation. They require different leadership skills and different organizational design

An expert is not a person who knows everything. It's someone who stands the longest to sensibly understand the relevant unknowns.
