'''REMINDER: I will not communicate to anyone (including Steve & Erin) about any of this until we have over 100 users and are on the production platform. I don't mention anything to Steve & Erin about transparency. For now, limit to Gavin, Elias, and their friends.'''

In 2011, I graduated from the Executive MBA program at Duke University. For each course, students were given a three-ringed binder notebook with the reading and assignments. We were not allowed to have laptops in class, so all my notes were hand written right on the pages of those binders. I moved to New York City after completing the program to a tiny apartment and didn’t have room for them anymore, so I went through each one and transcribed the most important notes into a digital note taking tool. I took this picture after I stacked them all in the refuse room of my apartment building. Although I had copied the most important notes, I knew that I was losing a tremendous amount of knowledge.
