After having an opportunity to talk 1:1 with two of the most revered personalities/founders/ceos in tech, I’ve come to the conclusion that they are as much full of s** as the rest of us. Probably even more.

I know the sample size of 2 is not scientific, but it was enough for me to not have any illusions about the nature of things.




Are they really going to tell you the "privileged" stuff 1:1 if they don't know you well, or the stupid stuff that they tell the public?

At that level, trusting people you don't know is even more risky.


You don’t need “privileged” stuff to get an idea about how the other person thinks about things. Also, I am not talking about some “met at a conference” or “did an interview” kind of a setting, this professional work environments kind of a setting.
