"People that might have been ham radio operators, people that might have, you know, worked with large computers were all gathered together to share. It was very exciting. And there was not a month that would go by where some breakthrough didn’t happen." - Steve Jobs, 1990
The telltale sign a man is narcissistic is this: he is insolent, yet also thin skinned.
Narcissistic men are quick to offend others, yet they themselves are easily offended.
They are arrogant on the outside and neurotic on the inside.
Those who are truly self aware are hardest to offend cause you rarely provide them any information which they haven’t known about themselves.
Offense is usually felt when your belief and truth has some distance in it which you want to avoid facing and someone pricks the bubble.
India has a large population of young men who have never dated or even spoken to a woman

"If the big companies made the product that was right, then most of theses things wouldn't have happened ! If with Woz, we went down with 2,000 bucks and bought an Apple 2, why would we have built one? We weren't try to start a company, we were trying to have a computer !" —SJ,97
Speed matters.
If you and your competitors are equally good at every task, but they are 1% faster than you, you will lose every single time.
Almost every activity where money can be made is a race, either against time or against competitors.
Humans are instinctively tribal; strong ingroup solidarity and outgroup emnity.
Forming one's ingroup on the basis of racial, ethnic, or national group is something more typical of Low IQs than High IQs.
The less ideological you are, the better decision-maker you will be.
Fools think in terms of principles and ideology.
The wise man thinks in terms of real world available options and real world consequences.
Being rude might give you the illusion of high status.
But in reality, it's a low IQ strategy to feel important.
Smart strategists are actually the most polite and well mannered people on earth.
