If you read the book you'll notice that I-messages are a rough approximation of the tools. Sometimes I think this summary does more harm than good by presenting it without the rich…

I think this summary offers template solutions. They are an approximation of the insights of the book. The book is more about relating a human experience to a conversation,

Read them all. The ROI is so high you may as well

I've personally found this book more valuable than any other mentioned in the thread and I challenge skeptics to read it.

There are a lot of bad communicators on this thread

Sadly I'm talking about a city in the top 5 VC funded cities.

I'm sad my comment came off as snooty. Its not meant to be. I'm not the smartest guy in the room by a long shot. I've just seen things that people in smaller ponds haven't. ICs at …

Thanks. Its not a shortage of recruiters or available positions:)

I don't have prestige, I'm not a 10x coder, I'm not special. I'm sure you have reasons for what you do. I don't like SF or the bay and I'm happy you have a great family.

I'm not saying people other places are bad or lesser, I'm saying the opportunities in SF are that much greater.

No, only that your career and development will benefit from staying in those places

You can also become very 'senior' in level without exposure or experience that would be comparable to somebody in SF. Its a bummer when you live there, but the whole city lives and…

Having just moved from SF to a smaller market with a 'lower cost of living' I can tell you DO NOT DO IT The value you lose from your current and future network alone is so devastat…

Hahaha. Its nice HN will give a voice to Neo-Luddism even if its content borders on trolling

I could be lead to that conclusion, but I see this another way. Running the business of a multinational pharma company doesn't qualify you to judge primary literature in microbiolo…

It is interesting. Theranos appointed high-profile people who were incapable of doing due diligence on their product. I wonder if this is another one of those.

This. Try to find a single diagnosis, treatment, or illness listed in their claims.

Does it bother you that those 'free' tests are just another unnecessary cost burden on our medical system?

I gave my data files from uBiome to a microbiologist and was told 'these data are too low in quality to analyze'

It sounds like we've figured out what'll cause the bubble this time around

The grapevine says this place is a dog and pony show.

I love this story. It captures my experiences there.

You're placing your own values on the event. People get mad because they don't think its "green enough" too. Or "vegan enough" or whatever. There are lots of things people can do i…

I think this is one of the best descriptions (or defenses?) of the festival I've ever read. Every year there are articles about how Burning Man has 'lost' or is 'done'. Every year …

I think you're right that if FP is a trap at one end of the fallacy, pure OOP exists at the other. Interesting point about software having uses outside of programming a machine to …
