a16z(@a16z):Patrick Collison's advice to people in their 20s: find where the highest standards are, and go experience them firsthand. "When I talk to people in other domains, this is so frequently the thing that I hear from them." "That when they worked with X person or Y organization or in Z environment, they learned what great actually is, and that just permanently changed their sense for what their own standard for their work ought to be." "Maybe one version of what people in their twenties should do is... figure out, where can you learn the highest standards? Where are the highest standards embodied, and where can you go and experience that firsthand?" @patrickc w/ @dwarkesh
