Ben Horowitz’s Three Steps Guide To Hiring -Don’t judge a book by its cover

Source: The Rosen Group Finding talents has always been a major challenge for many companies, especially in the field of artificial intelligence. Even big companies have to mobilize their celebrity CEOs to hire top talent. For example, JP Morgan Chase’s Jamie Dimon just poached Professor Manuela Veloso from Carnegie Mellon University as their Head of Artificial Intelligence Research. Most startups do not have a celebrity CEO and cannot offer a lucrative compensation package like tech giants. In his book The Hard Thing About Hard Things, he discussed the challenges of hiring a VP of Sales when he was the CEO of Opsware. After interviewing about two dozen candidates, none of them had the strengths he sought. Then Ben interviewed Mark Cranney. Mark did not have the stereotype of a hard-charging sales executive. He was not tall and went to a school Ben never heard of — Southern Utah University. Mark also made people feel uncomfortable. However, after Ben spends more time with Mark, h...

What You Should Do To Prepare For The Next Downturn?

How To Prepare For a Downturn With the dot-com bubble burst, a lot of us have the perception that most of the dot-com companies went out of business and got liquidated. The truth is that 48% of dot-com companies survived through 2004, albeit at lower valuations. One notable company that survived the dot-com bubble burst is Amazon. The question is, why could many companies endure the crash, and why did many not? What have the companies that survived done differently? Cash Is King But … Many startup companies' lifespan is measured by their burn rate , the rate at which they spend their existing capital. If we ask people how to prepare for the next high-tech downturn, most people will probably say a strong cash position. But the problem is we don’t know when the downturn is coming and how long it will last? If the recession lasts much longer than the cash you have on hand, it won’t matter anymore. Ben Horowitz discovered this when one of Loud Cloud’s biggest customers, A...

Content Delivery Network (CDN) Is The Magic Inside Disney’s Streaming Services

Disney’s streaming platform has become a top competitor in an already crowded field. Credit: Scott McIntyre for The New York Times Disney+ has skyrocketed to over 100 million subscribers in just 16 months since its launch in November 2019, as user growth exponentially throughout the pandemic. See Figure 1 (Feb 12, 2021.) It also tops Disney’s original projections of getting to 90 million subscribers for Disney+ within four years. This is a very impressive feat. However, people overlooked the infrastructure behind it to support the huge spike in subscribers. How did Disney do it? C ontent D elivery N etwork ( CDN ) is the magic behind Disney’s Streaming services. Disney+ doesn’t own any delivery infrastructure; they use third-party CDNs. To support the huge surge in subscribers, Disney+ relies on CDN providers such as Akamai, Lumen, Limelight, Edgecast, CloudFront, and Fastly for its video content distribution. Read More..
