MODERN RAGE
"When people look for the special sauce that helps some sites displace others — why Google trumped Altavista or Facebook beat Friendster — they miss the obvious fact that “simple” and “works” go a long way."
"The lesson to be learned here is that first to market is not as important as sometimes claimed. Most successful Internet platforms are second or third generation versions of an earlier idea."

"May, for his inaugural international flight, hadn’t slept in more than twenty hours and had eaten only a Charleston Chew. A gun was frequently pressed against his head by a man dressed as a priest. “It was not the best setup,” says May."
"When the gun went off, I didn’t even look at the guy,” Wright says. “I don’t even recall him falling. I was just desperate. You dig? I didn’t want to lose my job. It was a stupid, non-thought-out process. I just needed a dollar and a quarter for the bus."

"Writing appears more forgiving because there is no compiler or interpreter catching your its/it’s issues or reminding you of the rules regarding that or which. Here’s the rub: there is a compiler and it’s fucking brutal. It’s your readers. Your readers are far more critical than the Python interpreter. Not only do they care about syntax, but they also want to learn something, and, perhaps, be entertained while all this learning is going down. Success means they keep coming back - failure is a lonely silence."
