Division of labor
Division of labor is an idea I’ve been learning about in the past one year, and I’m starting to think there’s a ton of power in less control, and more freedom for some (carefully chosen) people to think, do, screw up, iterate, and ultimately drive and lead certain parts of what you do. I think the test of that particular brand of person is when you don’t tell them to do...

What else would you be doing?
My friend Turbo asked me this today. 你不是做網路公司的話，你會想做什麼？ Translated: If you weren’t doing a software company, what would you be doing?

The Art of War
26. Now the general who wins a battle makes many calculations in his temple ere the battle is fought. The general who loses a battle makes but few calculations beforehand.
