IT知名企业家和投资大佬Keith Rabois说他从另一位大佬Peter Thiel身上学到的最重要的建议是，不要雇佣超过30岁的人，”You can’t hire anybody over 30.”。他们的理由不是30岁以上的人不能996，而是到了30岁，有能力的人从简历上可以清楚地看出来（30岁的我还在学校读书，博士没毕业🫤）。这样的人会被大公司重金争抢，创业公司没这个资金和实力，也没有必要去和大公司抢。抢到了，功成名就和看重薪酬的牛人也不一定还是很好的builder。SpaceX的1号员工Tom Mueller评论说，马斯克招他去研发火箭时，他41岁，以后一段时间，他都是公司年纪最大的员工。网页链接我的观后感：重点不在于我们老年工程师会被创业公司”歧视”，而是年轻人不要只想着去谷歌、脸书、苹果这样的大公司，小公司也许机会更多，成长的速度更快。附上原话”Peter might not say it exactly the same way today, but basically, what he was trying to say is this: by the time you’re 30, everyone on the planet knows how to assess you pretty accurately. There are enough data points on your resume—back then, it was your resume, and today, it’s your LinkedIn profile—so that everybody can come to a consensus view about your abilities.But if you come to a consensus view about everybody’s abilities, guess what? Google is going to spend a lot of money on that person. Or OpenAI is going to spend a lot of money on that person. Or Meta is going to spend a lot of money on that person.And, when you’re a startup, you can’t outspend large companies that are very profitable or have infinite money like OpenAI. You need to be much more disciplined, much more frugal, and you may not even want to hire these people. The people who are motivated by that much compensation may not even be the right builders. I took that advice with me literally from November 2000, and I’ve been trying to apply it for 24 years now.”#职场##科技# 硅谷陈源博士的微博视频
