“Conditioned” is one of my favorite words when I think of humans in general. Let’s see how well you fare in the puzzle attached.

Read Michael Lewis “The New New Thing” last week, a biography of Jim Clark ( Founder of SGI, Netscape, Healtheon among others). Engrossing and highly recommended to anyone interested in the Silicon Valley during the 90s.

Two things stood out in the book:

  • derisively referring to a company called Google getting 75 million dollars in funding from KPCB during late 90s
  • Jim Clark’s accidental spotting of the “Juliet” (a boat) hastened Netscape’s IPO and resulted in the Internet revolution.
