Interview with Malcolm Gladwell about his new book, Outliers. Rather depressing stuff in some ways. I gather that not only do I NOT work hard enough, but I was born at the wrong time of year, not to mention with the wrong background/ role models/ etc. On the other hand, while 10K hours (or 10 years) of practice seem dauting at my age, there must be something in my bag of talents/ tricks that I can leverage. Maybe. But the example of Chris Langan remains depressing, regardless.
