Yo, this post really got me thinking—artists keep it tight, huh? It's wild how much they can create in just a few hours, but that’s what makes it legendary. Respect to the real craft.
It's kind of both at the same time: I often see videos of artists creating a song in a couple hours or a couple days, or videos of people putting something together live on video, or a band jamming and coming up with great stuff.
So it can be very fast.
But most artists release very little music. So it's kind of puzzling to try to reconcile both sometimes.
About the 4th point: Guess it depends on a variety of factors such as: industry, timing etc. where speed of execution (i.e. first mover factoring) is more favorable, rather than say, investing over a longer period of time. Thus we make the important distinction in business where startups vs established players tend to choose different pathways to market.
Great write-up, always look forward to your summaries
Absolutely. All advice is context-dependent. The trick is to have memory banks full of good advice that you can pattern-match to apply appropriately to what you're facing, or you can remix and modify some of that to fit your own situation. Rigidity rarely gets you anywhere in this probabilistic, complex adaptive system we're navigating!
Amazon logistics growth is crazy. Out of interest, how are deliveries in Canada? In London (UK), on the one hand it's amazing that you can get stuff delivered next-day, but otoh, the service can be quite mixed - some people practically throw it at you to keep schedule, others leave on door and don't bother to ring bell (& in inner city, things like that can get taken). More often than not it's fine, but I just wonder whether the speed of growth & maybe underpaying makes things not quite as good as it could be. Just thinking aloud - thanks for the inspiration.
I can't only speak for where I am, but it's usually next day or maybe 2 days if it's something they didn't have in the local DC, and the packages are generally handled very well by the last mile delivery.
