  No no, this makes sense, you literally need to cheat.

    It works for the crooks in charge.

    But the people paying for these kind of alpha boot camps aren’t ever going to be in that position. They’ll just put on blinders and “hustle” like a good little worker.

  Alpha in the software sense: pre-release, lots of bugs, definitely not ready for production, sale, or wide public viewing.

  But that is how CEO assholes work (or try to until they can’t get away with it)

  To be fair, though, if you were in a game of chess where you could make 10 moves for every one move your opponent makes, it would be really easy to win that game of chess.

  I don’t want to ruin this meme, but he’s saying a real thing in a confusing way. You have to think 10 moves ahead of your opponent and also the repercussions of each move at every step.

    Zero points for saying it wrong, though.

    “You miss every shot you take”

    “The only thing we do not fear is fear itself”

    “Interrupt your opponent when he is making a mistake”

    No, he said a real thing in a completely factually wrong way, and that’s assuming that this “entrepeneur” actually understood it correctly, which I doubt.

  I gave up on playing chess. The game has become such a metaphor, such a fetish symbol for intellect, so every dude “knows how to play”, but won’t risk the humiliation of loss, and therefore won’t play. I don’t enjoy online chess, so I just don’t get to play.
