“Musicians are the only craftspeople that get to create something at the exact same time their audience consumes it” – Sharif
“Personal service is consumed immediately upon their production. There is no “stock” in this sphere, since the goods disappear into consumption immediately on being produced.” – Murray Rothbard
I think writers are doing the same with musicians.

- Paul Graham’s emphasis on writing is generalized to his basic stance where he repeatedly push startup founders to launch version 1.0 products as soon as possible. The reality of both writing something and launching product he says has many things in common.
- RUL3 - Love bad news. Always question to falsify your idea and theory. Invalidate ASAP. How fast you can invalidate matters as much as how fast you can build them. Rule out bad explanations.
- The longer and slower the interval, you don’t see the result, and it adds up (think of bad habits)

- If you got some results you didn’t want, the world is telling you at least one of two things: (a) you were unlucky; (b) your ideas about how things work were wrong. If you were unlucky, trying again with the same approach should lead to a different outcome. When you repeatedly don’t get the outcomes you want, though, the world is telling you to update your understanding. And you have to accept that, and act accordingly. Remember: 1-1a5b4.4 Real-time calibration (i.e., recalibration) lets you adapt to the changing landscape.

- To increase your curiosity is to indulge it, by investigating things you’re interested in. Curiosity is unlike most other appetites in this respect: indulging it tends to increase rather than sate it. Questions lead to more questions.develop
