I'll blame writing on my phone while on the bus. With my stop coming up. :)

That said, probably nothing too deep. I certainly wasn't aiming for it.

My main points:

  * Most of us in engineering focus on intrinsic measurements of our code's quality.  These don't generalize well to product quality
  * Nothing wrong with being a builder, instead of an artisan.  Especially when it comes to building.
  * Most people that succeeded fall to survivor bias and think they know why they succeeded.  They are usually wrong.
