The points I learned：
- Doing something fun although that was not what you are supposed to be doing.
- Just do it. It was not the prize itself that mattered. It was the recognition. It was that someone had noticed and said thanks. That was what I wanted.
- Innovation can only (?) come from the bottom. Those closest to the problem are in the best position to solve it. I believe any organization that depends on innovation must embrace chaos. Loyalty and obedience are not your tools; you must use measurement and objective debate to separate the good from the bad.
- Creativity must flow from everywhere. Whether you are a summer intern or the CTO, any good idea must be able to seek an objective test, preferably s test that exposes the idea to real customers.
- While reading these posts I am shocked that Amazon was working on recommendation systems, machine learning algorithms, distributed computing and etc. back to that early times. Looking at myself, I am still on the learning path of those funny things. Keep going man..
