Yeah.
And when you're dealing with an old problem, expertise is usually the answer, which is like find someone who knows, hire someone or mentor or whatever.
And then you have these new problems where there is no blueprint in our industry.
It's a new challenge.
So experimentation is the answer.
Does that like broadly hold in your mind?
Oh, 100%.
Yeah, I like to say test everything except drugs.
Like we're always testing.
It's the basis to everything we do.
But do you test when it's an old problem?
Can you give me an example?
So like things like cash flow management, hiring principles around like probation and notice periods, a lot of legal structuring and deals.
Things with like a well-established president.
Well-established presidents where like nothing has fundamentally changed in the world that makes that invalid.
Yeah.
I think if it's an old problem, I look to an example of someone within the last decade that solved it in an interesting way.
And I'm more likely to copy that.
Like in hiring.
Traditionally, companies will spend hours and weeks or days hiring, going from round to round to round, person to person to person.
