You want to build that tolerance really fast because if you don't build it fast for the smaller things, like the baby steps, then you're not going to have it for the big things.

And if you can't do that on the grander scale, right?

And the grander stage, I guess, then you're going to fully collapse.

You can ask them, like, I try to spend a lot of time on, like, tell me about your life.

Like, what do you want to do?

What do you like doing?

Like, tell me mistakes you've made, things like that.

Like, you can do it in the hiring process, right?

What I like to do a lot is I go through, like, a Google Doc and I do, like, a live editing process.

So I'll, like, come up with a Google Doc that has, like, a bunch of questions or, like, a project to do, and we'll do it live async.

Part of that is because I really like to work async, and so I need to be able to work with someone async.

And it's a good, like, litmus test to tell that.

The other thing that it does is...

You can tell when some people like take too long, like they'll write like a 20 paragraph response to something.

And you're like, you're just hedging constantly.

Like this was basically a like option A or option B question.

Right.

And you can tell that if they're massively hedging like that, what are they going to be like in high stakes decisions?

it seems like we now live in a world where a very slight difference in skill is leveraged to a degree it's never been leveraged before talk crazy about that yeah that's what i'm seeing across our company just massively where like the people who were i already thought were like 10x are now 100x um and so i do think you're you're seeing like the power law of

ability just increased by a lot, right?
