How To Find Great People to Work With - UBI & Talent Distribution

How To Find Great People to Work With - UBI & Talent Distribution

This reminds me of a very similar lesson I learned when hiring in cybersecurity over 20 years: exposing people to training and encouragement makes the stars stand out, but it doesn’t turn everyone into stars.

Ambition & UBI - Why People Are Working Less

Ambition & UBI - Why People Are Working Less

The idea that Universal Basic Income (UBI) reduces the need to work isn't new, but recent studies show it doesn't lead to better jobs or more education.

Google Current State A Waste of Money & Talent

Google Current State A Waste of Money & Talent

Google is slowly getting rid of all the best things it has. The main thing Google is growing is its graveyard. Such a colossal waste of money and talent. Their failures should be studied for centuries as an example of what happens when you don’t lead with UX-focused product management, rather than “throw shit at wall”-focused engineering.
