It really depends on the perspective you bring and what you're comparing it to. If the equivalent alternative to working at Google on AdSense sales is working as a consultant at McKinsey or at Goldman Sachs as an…

It probably depends on what kind of a company you are trying to start. Groupthink or an approach that over-emphasizes engineering in place of value prop / understanding the market you are serving can hinder you, and…
Yes, this test is actually referenced throughout "Blink" -- Really interesting when you look at the results.
"Yet because ugliness is harder to define than race or sex, some argue that anti-discrimination laws are impossible to maintain." Anybody else find the premise to that statement a bit short-sighted? I just read an…
