“They saw their injured country's woe;
The flaming town, the wasted field;
Then rushed to meet the insulting foe;
They took the spear, - but left the shield.”
Sam Altman created a new post on blog.samaltman.com: What I Wish Someone Had Told Me
Optimism, obsession, self-belief, raw horsepower and personal connections are how things get started. Cohesive teams, the right combination of calmness and urgency, and unreasonable commitment are how things get finished. Long-term orientation is in short supply; try not to worry about what people think in the short term, which will get easier over time. It is easier for a team to do a hard thing that really matters than to do an easy thing that doesn’t really matter; audacious ideas motivate people. Incentives are superpowers; set them carefully. Concentrate your resources on a small number of high-conviction bets; this is easy to say but evidently hard to do. You can delete more stuff than you think. Communicate clearly and concisely. Fight bullshit and bureaucracy every time you see it and get other people to fight it too. Do not let the org chart get in the way of people working productively together. Outcomes are what count; don’t let good process excuse bad results. Spend more time recruiting. Take risks on high-potential people with a fast rate of improvement. Look for evidence of getting stuff done in addition to intelligence. Superstars are even more valuable than they seem, but you have to evaluate people on their net impact on the performance of the organization. Fast iteration can make up for a lot; it’s usually ok to be wrong if you iterate quickly. Plans should be measured in decades, execution should be measured in weeks. Don’t fight the business equivalent of the laws of physics. Inspiration is perishable and life goes by fast. Inaction is a particularly insidious type of risk. Scale often has surprising emergent properties. Compounding exponentials are magic. In particular, you really want to build a business that gets a compounding advantage with scale. Get back up and keep going. Working with great people is one of the best parts of life.
Not dumb, not idiot like Derpy -- able to consult with dictionary. But still... knowing definition. And understanding subtle cultural diffs...
R NOT same thing.
So... you made me flabbergasted... with that claim about celebs. (is DiBi are celeb? do I like... it?)
Well, it's like that coan -- can someone be called follower/fan/liker/believer of X... if that one even dunno what X mean?
Well... there is such thing. Like in Christianity. You know... Kinda Samaritan. Which was epitomes of Good Christian... but YET, we call themself Good Christians... NOT Good Samaritans, isn't it?
That is eternal dichotomy between "be" and "be named".
And it seem (from my point of view) that you caught in an infinite loop of that never-ending and multi-many-layered game "Be Named". ;-)
Have you interest? into such "lost in pre-moderation" screeds? Or I just overindulge myself, with copy-pasting em here?

\\Blogger Shaw Kenawe said... Wokism, BTW, unlike religion, doesn't advocate flying planes into building and killing \\thousands of innocent people or throwing acid in young women's faces who seek education.
That's... just for now.
Religious bigots are all the same in that regard -- want to kill all "infidels".
So? YOU really want us WAIT for wokism to became much like that mullahs???
With all power of civilization in its bigoted hands???
Mullahs... they for at least INCOMPETENT -- unable to make A-Bomb EVEN while all blueprints available.

\\The first image that came to mind when I read that was the East Germans trying to get over the wall and into West Germany and the Communists shooting to kill.

There WAS NO border. USA-Mexica -- there IS one.
That was FORCEFUL separation of what was unite. Are you one with mexicans???
THAT IS -- power of Woke Bigotry -- when FACTUALLY OPPOSITE things -- suddenly became similar, and even THE SAME.
"Because only Facts are unambigious. And Logic is the ONE and ONLY."
\\ S.K.: Here are some unambiguous facts: Joe Biden won the 2020 election.
Is that fact disputed? Seriously? By me, especially?
Well... you know, there is crazy people that say that Earth is flat, like that pancake.
So, What... every time when questions of astronomy will be discussed -- you, and people like you will be pointing to that same FACT "see, there is such crazy people flat-earthers" AND DECLARE own victory on that base?
And HOW you are different from that flat-earther? ;-P
They ALSO have a shortlist of FACTS... or just "facts"... they like to use as a club against opponent.
What a troglodyte's discussion tactics. :-))))))
\\ Donald Trump was found liable for sexual assault/rape, and is a tax fraudist.
And NOT put in jail? ;-)
\\And the current GOP want him to be POTUS again.
That... we dunno yet. Given that moronic prohibition to appear on primaries ballots...
\\I wonder how they would welcome visitors who insult them and LIE about them?
Yep.
Especially if they "lie"... with Unbearable Truth. ;-P

Look, if you need a VC guru, Altman's your guy. He can sell any Silicon Valley venture. But look what he did to OpenAI.
