I love reading outsiders flail when trying to understand something like Quora by thinking in terms of naive, business-as-usual lenses.


I love it when insiders flail thinking they are rewriting the rules of business. I also love it when they completely misunderstand the term business-as-usual.

The opposite of business as usual is a project. A temporary , uncertain venture with a defined finish point.

By your statement Quora is simply a project, not a business.

Keep up the superior attitude; it's working well for you.


So in your narrative, who are in the insiders? And in what terms are they thinking as opposed to the 'outsiders'?
