Agree but topping out is similar to saying that the slope changes. Maybe after hitting 75k, it takes another $400k to make an appreciable difference. It may take a another $40mm to make a difference at $750k (100x for a 10x change)

It must be non-linear. Surely the 20th billion isn’t as good as the 5th

People don’t want to give up their info and create an account to try it out.

The pro is that chatGPT would probably quickly surface many okrs the user would not have thought of, and could answer questions about the pros and cons. It could also answer questions about how many wild be suitable and sub okr that may feed into the main okr and so forth

I assume someone cracks a “waiting for” joke every time there are is any update from them.

That could just be part of the secular trend of re-assessing the records of "conquerors" across the world. Some people consider Napoleon, Alexander and so on to be glorified warlords who happened to win but are essentially mass murderers like non-western conquerors (Attila the Hun and so on).

If that’s what prompted this I can see why you recommend videos. It’s the #1 recommendation for any startup advice source.

But … you must have come across it before. What made you not pursue it? ie why was it a blind spot?

The issue I have here is that it’s not clear how to identify the mini games to improve.

This is an article of where blind spots might be but not about how to find them.

One of the suggestions is to find a coach — for instance online videos (not exactly a live coach) — but if you don’t know the mini games you should want to improve , how do you know which coach/video to invest in?

Yeah but it seems strange: make a law that you cannot speak against the government and of course we politely obey and keep quiet. Ask us to remove something and we will debate it, fight it and expose it.

I think the second approach is right even if the request were “innocuous”.

The myth of the myth of the myth of the 10x programmers.

This is just argument by assertion. You would still hope someone would demonstrate the existence of 10x programmers. A lot of these one-off anecdotes in the comments are closer to 1.3x to be honest.

"Every damn body" knows this in retrospect. At the time -- when we were washing our groceries and we weren't sure if the IFR was 1% or 10%, and if it was airborne or if it was morphing into something worse -- our new reality might have been very different.

Because then your boss would just give you 99% of your salary as a gift.
