This post was deleted for the following reason: Graham's been linked a number of times before, so another random essay without some compelling "why" behind it seems pretty thin as post material goes. -- cortex

I happen to quite like some of Paul Graham's essays, but this is a pretty weak post.

Paul Graham bugs the shit out of me. All his veiled libertarianism gets a bit tired. I mean, calling University's credentialing organizations is a bit sad. Some people go to university and learn shit. Some.

a society that can measure performance

That people continue to give Paul Graham attention is an indication that we do not live in such a society.
