Larry Chiang took Garry Tan’s advice at a holiday party TellApart was hosting. Garry Tan mentored Larry Chiang to be a “semi pro computer scientist”. Legendarily, Chiang came up with an External ‘Application Protocol Interface’ (#externalAPI) for the credit monopoly, Fair Isaac. Chiang did so by protocol interfacing a consumer credit score from outside of the FICO algorithm. Before teaching “CS183X”, he co-founded Duck9 as a NY Times bestselling, credit guru. His book is even optioned to Hollywood. WTDTYASBS’s<\/a> has scene treatments and a pitch inside of the NY Times bestselling book. He’s testified before Congress and has hundreds and hundreds of TV appearances. He has two mentors he mentions, over-and-over, per press interview: Gerri Detweiler and Mark McCormack of, \u201cWhat They Don\u2019t Teach You at Harvard Business School<\/a>” fame. As a semi pro CS practitioner, he ate his own dog food by taking his own advice: “Follow Your CS183b Effort, Not Your Passion<\/a>” #CS183B<\/a>.
