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 →

Todd Fisher no published score: no 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.

Q Okay. And what were you, as you mentioned, Ruby on Rails in the bio, was it, were you just kind of contributing to the open source community before that, or what were you doing before 2012?

A Uh, yeah. So, um, I guess I really got my start in 2005 at, uh, Revolution Health Group. Uh, we sort of spearheaded the initiative to have that product be built in Ruby on Rails. Uh, 2008 left, started trying to start like a consulting company, uh, which became Captico, uh, which we didn't know what we were doing. We were just like all over the place. We had no idea what we were doing, but we, but we had a good team, uh, and we, we tried really hard Uh, but these aren't the things that create success, um, unfortunately. Um, and out of that though came this idea that I'm, uh, I'm not very good at asking people for money. Uh, so if I have a webpage that accepts a credit card, that I would have much more success. So March first, 2011, we had a webpage up that accepted a credit card that surprisingly, uh, started to grow rather quickly. Uh, but, uh, but I had to, uh, uh, actually Yeah. 2010, March first. Yeah. And then, uh, 2011, I had to take a job at living social, uh, worked there for about a year. And then in 2012, uh, Lori and I, uh, Lori had been taking calls during the day.
