- 7:16And
- 7:17especially
- 7:17if

- 7:17it
- 7:18in
- 7:18the

- 7:34context
- 7:34and
- 7:35that
- 7:35setting,
- 7:35it
- 7:35almost
- 7:36becomes
- 7:36understandable
- 7:37to
- 7:37me
- 7:37why
- 7:37stolen
- 7:38valor
- 7:38would

- 7:45It
- 7:45also
- 7:46then
- 7:46creates
- 7:46this
- 7:47behavior
- 7:47that
- 7:47I've

- 7:51you're
- 7:52standing
- 7:52up
- 7:52a
- 7:52new

- 7:53Why
- 7:53people
- 7:54get
- 7:54so
- 7:55emotional
- 7:55around
- 7:56where
- 7:56we

- 7:58what
- 7:58red,
- 7:58yellow
- 7:58and
- 7:58green
- 7:59actually
- 7:59means
- 7:59because
- 8:00they're
- 8:00concerned
- 8:00about
- 8:00how
- 8:00that
- 8:01might
- 8:01reflect
- 8:02back
- 8:02on

- 8:02Right.
- 8:03You're
- 8:03right.
- 8:03These
- 8:04are

- 8:11it
- 8:12loses
- 8:12its
- 8:12steam.
- 8:13And

- 9:12the
- 9:12right
- 9:12thing,
- 9:13but
- 9:14that
- 9:14should
- 9:15not
- 9:15be
- 9:15the
- 9:15exception.
- 9:16The
- 9:17right
- 9:17thing
- 9:17for
- 9:17the
- 9:18business
- 9:18should
- 9:19be
- 9:19what
- 9:20we're
- 9:20measuring,
- 9:21not
- 9:21an
- 9:21exception
- 9:22to
- 9:22what
- 9:22we're
- 9:23measuring.
- 9:23Right.
- 9:23Which
- 9:24it
- 9:24seems
- 9:25like
- 9:25there's
- 9:25a
- 9:25lot
- 9:25of
- 9:26that.
- 9:26And
- 9:26then,
- 9:26you
- 9:26know,
- 9:27if
- 9:27you
- 9:27get
- 9:28somebody
- 9:28who

- 9:32the
- 9:32shape
- 9:32of
- 9:33your
- 9:33jib
- 9:33or
- 9:33whatever
- 9:34it
- 9:34is.
- 9:34Right.
- 9:35It
- 9:35could
- 9:35be
- 9:36used
- 9:36as
- 9:36a
- 9:36negative.
- 9:36So
- 9:37I
- 9:37think
- 9:37it's,
- 9:38it
- 9:38feels
- 9:38like
- 9:38it's
- 9:39kind
- 9:39of

- 9:41are
- 9:42trying,
- 9:42but
- 9:43we're
- 9:43still
- 9:43getting
- 9:44caught

- 9:46I
- 9:46mean,
- 9:46Maslow's
- 9:47hierarchy
- 9:47of
- 9:47needs.
- 9:48You
- 9:48know,
- 9:49you
- 9:49have
- 9:49to
- 9:49meet
- 9:49your

- 9:50your
- 9:50needs
- 9:50first
- 9:51before
- 9:51you're
- 9:52self

- 14:56It
- 14:57basically
- 14:57undermined

- 14:58credibility
- 14:58of
- 14:58the

- 15:03even
- 15:03though
- 15:03I
- 15:03was
- 15:03actually
- 15:03certain
- 15:04about
- 15:04the
- 15:04recommendation.
- 15:05I
- 15:05think,
- 15:06you
- 15:06know,
- 15:06those
- 15:06environments
- 15:06we
- 15:07talked
- 15:07about
- 15:07before
- 15:07lead
- 15:08you
- 15:08to
- 15:08want
- 15:09to
- 15:09hedge
- 15:09sometimes,
- 15:10right.
- 15:10And
- 15:10you
- 15:10have
- 15:11to
- 15:11bracket
- 15:11it.
- 15:11Right.
- 15:12Everything
- 15:12is
- 15:12about
- 15:12bracketing
- 15:13it.
- 15:13So
- 15:14you
- 15:14could.
- 15:15You
- 15:15could
- 15:15go
- 15:15like,
- 15:16hey,
- 15:17like
- 15:17this
- 15:17is
- 15:18one
- 15:18thing
- 15:18you
- 15:18could
- 15:18do.
- 15:19And
- 15:19I
- 15:19know
- 15:19your
- 15:20recommendations
- 15:20are
- 15:21good,
- 15:21so
- 15:22it
- 15:22was
- 15:22the
- 15:22right
- 15:23thing.
- 15:23But
- 15:24probably
- 15:24in,
- 15:25you
- 15:26know,
- 15:26in
- 15:26the
- 15:26background
- 15:27of
- 15:27your
- 15:27mind
- 15:27as
- 15:27you're
- 15:27delivering
- 15:28it
- 15:28or
- 15:28typing
- 15:29out
- 15:29the
- 15:29deck,
- 15:29right?
- 15:29You're
- 15:30like,
- 15:30well,
- 15:31if
- 15:31this
- 15:31person
- 15:32does
- 15:32this,
- 15:32if
- 15:33they
- 15:33actually
- 15:33stick
- 15:33to
- 15:33it,
- 15:34if,
- 15:34if,
- 15:35if
- 15:35they're
- 15:36ifs,
- 15:36right.
- 15:37So
- 15:37those
- 15:38become
- 15:38assumptions,
- 15:39those
- 15:39become
- 15:39risks.
- 15:41And
- 15:41we
- 15:41can
- 15:41give,
- 15:42you
- 15:42know,
- 15:42our
- 15:43best
- 15:43guess,
- 15:43like,
- 15:44and
- 15:44maybe
- 15:45be
- 15:45wrong,
- 15:45but
- 15:45it's
- 15:46based
- 15:46on
- 15:46the
- 15:46information
- 15:47we
- 15:47have.
- 15:48So
- 15:48hope
- 15:49is
- 15:49definitely
- 15:49not
- 15:49a
- 15:50strategy.
- 15:50But
- 15:52like
- 15:52I
- 15:53said,
- 15:53something
- 15:54happening
- 15:55and
- 15:56you
- 15:56doing
- 15:56something
- 15:57like
- 15:57a
- 15:57correlation
- 15:58that
- 15:58doesn't
- 15:59correlate,
- 16:00that's
- 16:01also
- 16:01terrible.
- 16:02And
- 16:02there's
- 16:03people
- 16:03running
- 16:03around
- 16:04with
- 16:04a
- 16:04bunch
- 16:04of
- 16:04bravado,
- 16:06very
- 16:06little
- 16:06data,
- 16:08and
- 16:08kind
- 16:09of
- 16:09getting
- 16:09away
- 16:09with
- 16:09it.
- 16:10So
- 16:10like
- 16:10I
- 16:11said,
- 16:11there's
- 16:11something
- 16:12in
- 16:12between.
- 16:12Hey,
- 16:13I'm
- 16:13very
- 16:14humble.
- 16:14Maybe
- 16:14this
- 16:15will
- 16:15do
- 16:15it.
- 16:15I
- 16:16hope
- 16:16it
- 16:16works.
- 16:17And
- 16:17this
- 16:18is
- 16:18the
- 16:18answer.
- 16:20It's
- 16:20two
- 16:20sides
- 16:20of
- 16:21a
- 16:21coin.
- 16:21If
- 16:21we

- 16:22coin
- 16:22vertical,
- 16:23we'll
- 16:23be
- 16:23okay.

- 16:33any
- 16:34direction
- 16:34and
- 16:34angle
- 16:34through
- 16:35it
- 16:35and
- 16:35then
- 16:35try
- 16:35and
- 16:35claim
- 16:36correlation
- 16:36from
- 16:36it.
- 16:36If
- 16:37you

- 36:59between.
- 37:00It's
- 37:01like
- 37:01a
- 37:01cloud
- 37:01engineer
- 37:02who
- 37:02understands
- 37:03data
- 37:03structures
- 37:04but
- 37:04also
- 37:04understands
- 37:05the
- 37:05front
- 37:05end.
- 37:06And
- 37:08that's
- 37:08what's
- 37:09happening.
- 37:09So
- 37:10that
- 37:10design
- 37:10thinking,
- 37:12you're
- 37:12always
- 37:12going
- 37:13to
- 37:13attach
- 37:13yourself
- 37:13to
- 37:14value.
- 37:14You're
- 37:15always
- 37:15going
- 37:15to
- 37:15be
- 37:15able
- 37:16to
- 37:16figure
- 37:16out
- 37:16a
- 37:16way
- 37:17to
- 37:17satisfy
- 37:18your
- 37:18clients.
- 37:18I
- 37:18think
- 37:19if
- 37:19you're
- 37:19focused
- 37:20on
- 37:21how
- 37:21do
- 37:21I
- 37:21deliver
- 37:22you
- 37:22value
- 37:23and
- 37:23how
- 37:23do
- 37:23I
- 37:23tell
- 37:23you
- 37:24how
- 37:24to
- 37:24scale
- 37:24this
- 37:24value?
- 37:25Because
- 37:25those
- 37:25are
- 37:26the
- 37:26two
- 37:26sides
- 37:26we
- 37:26need
- 37:27to
- 37:27do
- 37:27and
- 37:28we
- 37:28don't
- 37:28want
- 37:28to
- 37:28sit
- 37:28there
- 37:28forever
- 37:29and
- 37:31boil
- 37:31the
- 37:31ocean.
- 37:32And
- 37:32we
- 37:32also
- 37:33don't
- 37:33want
- 37:33to
- 37:33build
- 37:33a
- 37:33house
- 37:33without
- 37:34pouring
- 37:34a
- 37:34foundation.
- 37:35So
- 37:35it's
- 37:35like,
- 37:35how
- 37:36do
- 37:36you
- 37:36find
- 37:37the
- 37:37middle
- 37:37part
- 37:38of
- 37:38that,
- 37:38the
- 37:38middle
- 37:39ground?
- 37:39And
- 37:39it
- 37:39should
- 37:40all
- 37:40get
- 37:40faster.
- 37:41And
- 37:41also
- 37:41the
- 37:41other
- 37:41really
- 37:42empowering
- 37:42thing

- 42:45it
- 42:45wasn't
- 42:46hallucinating.
- 42:47It
- 42:47was
- 42:47predicting
- 42:48the
- 42:48next
- 42:49token,
- 42:49which
- 42:50it's
- 42:50supposed
- 42:51to
- 42:51do.
- 42:51You
- 42:52were
- 42:52the
- 42:52one
- 42:53that
- 42:53was
- 42:53putting

- 42:57Graham.
- 42:57Like,
- 42:57we'll

- 43:05your
- 43:05own
- 43:07organizational
- 43:08software?
- 43:09Sure.
- 43:09Like,
- 43:10you

- 43:11but
- 43:11if
- 43:11you
- 43:12don't
- 43:12know
- 43:12how
- 43:12it's
- 43:12supposed

- 43:14you
- 43:14shouldn't
- 43:14be
- 43:15doing
- 43:15that.
- 43:15I
- 43:15think
- 43:16the
- 43:16nature
- 43:16of
- 43:16work
- 43:17changes.
- 43:17The
- 43:17work
- 43:18doesn't
- 43:18change.
- 43:19It's
- 43:19like,
- 43:20I
- 43:20think
- 43:21we
- 43:21will
- 43:21get
- 43:21to
- 43:21a
- 43:22point
- 43:22where

- 43:29But
- 43:30always
- 43:30checking
- 43:31it
- 43:31out.
- 43:31Right.
- 43:33It
- 43:34doesn't
- 43:34solve
- 43:34for
- 43:34that.
- 43:35And
- 43:35if
- 43:35it
- 43:35does,
- 43:35we're
- 43:36all
- 43:36in
- 43:36trouble.
- 43:37I
- 43:37mean,
- 43:38I

- 44:21and
- 44:21this
- 44:21is
- 44:21the
