One of the best parts about your article is the story of your apprenticeship to Perry. What a blessing to have had someone like that in your corner, really teaching by giving you your own experience. But my very favorite thing in this whole article is the quote by Paul Graham. “all other things being equal, the best plan is to let as few things into your identity as possible”. An identity is like a definition, a label, and ”the more labels you have for yourself, the dumber they make you." Stumbling on this in your post is like finding a $100 bill by the side of the road. Thanks for your article Silvio!
