"I spent too many years working in Silicon Valley, under a venture capital system,
wherein people were made to compete with each other and even worthwhile projects
were abandoned if they did not produce enough wealth for the principal investors.
It was often a system of divide and conquer, where individuals competed with other
individuals. Yes, there was cooperation, mostly within the team producing a big program,
but it was shoe-horned into the larger competitive system. I like to think that my
pre-existing values were sharpened by watching a system that worked a different way;
by learning how not to do things." PR
