This CS 183 class has a slew of spawned classes like cs183b (Sam Altman), #cs183c [Reid Hoffman]and three cs183e classes<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Because VCs took poly Sci but lecture in engineering are confusing AF<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">This 3-star review nails it<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">https:\/\/a.co\/d\/3w95Vyo&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Other 3 star reviews need to be solved<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Problem: This book is ivory tower<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Problem: VCs talk about quarter baked ideas<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Problem = The counterintuitive truths founders know and then execute are not stressed in this book. Peter Thiel recommends executing on the counterintuitive truths engineers know. And then distributing {#cs183d interestingly got skipped!}<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Distributing the future<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Distributing the counterintuitive truths your cofounders know to be true that will be executed true is HOW TO UNICORN<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Distributing PayPal was a story and case study Peter Thiel and Blake Masters knowingly edited out.
