It's just mad skills.. I don't believe simply putting in huge amount of time in front of the machine is adequate. Neither is simply being smart. Is it just a combination of being smart, sinking in a lot of time, interests etc?

Many of the comments here, however, seem to misunderstand his point about the propensity of creative minds to continue the refinement process and "not knowing when to stop". One (codeulike) apparently thinks simply being "bored" is what drives abstract thinkers. Let me assure you that is not the case, nor is it an inability to code. Many architecture astronauts started out as wiz coders. I think you are just reading something that's not there.

> My advice to serious young software engineers is to not accept ''m and imprecise thinking as acceptable standards for their chosen vocation. Hmm? What straw man are you attacking?

- TikTok ruined Trumps rally

- Facebook is threatened by TikTok growth in US

- Zuck testifies before congress, pointing fingers at China and companies like TikTok

- Zuck met Trump, shaked hands under the table

- Trump asks TikTok to sell

- to Oracle.... best US company to curb TikTok growth

- Facebook does nothing about Trump posts

- Profit for Trump, less competitor for Zuck

- Things probably staged. What is one reason TikTok "chooses" Oracle over Microsoft?

Things like 'A successful startup do X/Y/Z', 'A good founder normally X/Y/Z', and usually X/Y/Z is not that an obvious trait people think that contributes to the success.

He might be right to make the conclusion since he has worked with so many startups and thus has a better classifier than most people, but I can't stop feeling these assertions miss the point and nuances, and is mainly something counter intuitive that he witnesses working as VC. It might be an overfitting issue.

His essays though are usually a good read, lots of times calling out an idea that people sort of experience internally but fail to concretize. He is very good at writing digestible essays.
