"..charla que Warren Buffet dió a los alumno del MBA de la Universidad de Florida. Creo que realmente vale la pena perder los 18 minutos la hora y 20 minutos que dura el vídeo ya que es una gran lección, a la altura de la que dió Steve Jobs en Stanford..."

Releyendo a Paul Graham
Acabo de conseguir eliminar una de esas torres de documentos por leer que se reproducen en cuanto te descuidas y he encontrado estas notas que apunté sobre los essays de Paul Graham en algún momento.
Nota: No pongo "italica" porque hay algo de rephrasing y no son citas originales
- People at startups work harder because retribution is binary
- Disruptive technologies are created by disruptive people
- Switching a company from consulting to product revenues is hard
- When a startup is bought 6 months down the road for 3M$ its more a sign on bonus than an acquisition. Companies are beginning to merge recruiting and product development
- On the Internet anything genuinely good will be spread by word of mouth

Maddog en ICAI
Jon "Maddog" Hall, presidente de Linux International y gurú del Software Libre ha dado hoy una de sus charlas evangelizando sobre su visión del futuro del software, en la Upco. Sin duda merecía ser escuchada aunque sólo sea por su medio siglo de experiencia como programador.Es un presentador con un humor muy ácido y argumentos muy sólidos sobre por qué tiene sentido evolucionar el software hacia estándares abiertos. Por cierto, me ha alegrado bastante enterarme de que IBM, empresa para la que he trabajado en el pasado, esponsoriza "su cruzada".

You've got to find what you love
Me estaba planteando que llevo demasiadas madrugadas seguidas en la oficina (me costaría contarlas en este momento) cuando he vuelto a leer un artículo que enlacé hace unos días en El Mundo Real de los Negocios. Corto y pego los mejores trozos: hay gente excepcional que tiene el talento de motivar a cualquiera y tengo el privilegio de trabajar con muchos de ellos
(....) You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.
(...) Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it
(...) For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important
(...) Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life
(...) Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary
