very good read. I get into the same discussion sometimes with people. If you're successful you're automatically labelled as "lucky".

There are successful people that failed many times before being successful. Somehow these days, previous failures and persistence seems to be ignored and they focus just on the luck you got on the 20th try.

same do unsuccesful ones. They usually overappreciate luck of succesful people from what I see, as a way of coping, many say "that guy was just lucky, i was unlucky". If you dig deeper, that person wasn't just "unlucky", they lacked the persistence, work ethics and other qualities compared to other succesful ones.

Of course, there are degrees and exceptions on every side, but the coping mechanism is very strong among people.

i tried these fractional hires, they performed much much worse than a dedicated full time hire, it just slowed us down. Their productivity is low, they don't have time to understand the business, product, team, etc. I tried 2 times, one fractional CMO and one fraction CTO, bought with amazing stats on paper. Even though they were smart guys and capable, just because their attention is split into multiple places, they can't immerse themselves enough in your business.

It also tracks investments, deployments, robots or jobs. Maybe it's useful for some of you.

I'm passionate about robotics so I made this in my spare time. Took a while to normalize all the data even with AI.
