The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Michael Lazerow no published score: only 2 usable exchanges on raw tape, and a fair score needs 8+ record → ← everyone

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Um, he was an entrepreneur, is an entrepreneur, and I saw kind of the disastrous effects of, you know, kind of not having money. He fell in some hard times, had some mental health issues. And so I got into this entrepreneurship not to create like a billion dollar business like we did at Buddy Media. Got into it just to have like freedom and the ability to kind of control my destiny. You wouldn't have started an internet business in 1994 if you really liked money. The only people who started internet businesses when I did back in the early nineties really hated money or didn't like money because there were only thirteen million people on the internet. There's no commercial internet. Netscape had barely launched. There was really no commercial browser. Yahoo was organizing the web with people. And at the same time as a journalism major, I just, it felt like it was going to be big. So I was early, not too early, but I was young, right? I was 19 when I started my first internet company at Northwestern where I went. And then once I started, I just n…
