This instilled in me an urgency, what I call “publish before I perish.” Essentially, I recorded everything that I learned during the day. First on cassette tapes—many of you don’t know what that is anymore—floppy disks—okay, a few more—and then finally the Internet. The Internet is still around. And along the way, I discovered something profound. If you publish something perfect on the Internet, people just click “like” and then they scroll away. But if you publish something imperfect on the Internet, everybody comes out and argues with you.
