Filling in the gaps
Even when you know with all your heart your project has merit and can make an impact there’s nothing like hearing it from someone else.
So I would like to thank Chris Ellis (@MrChrisEllis) for this message he sent us recently, we couldn’t have said it better ourselves.
“Your start-up is going to play an important role in the stories we tell ourselves about the past. As Taleb said if we tell ourselves the wrong stories about the past we lose our future. But you can’t just watch Hollywood films of that old battle. Learning comes with experimentation, forming a hypothesis and that’s what your product does; it lowers the marginal cost to experimenting with the past, it allows us to fill in the gaps in the time line with what we know to be true”
