How to Be an Expert in a Changing World [Paul Graham]

When experts are wrong, it's often because they're experts on an earlier version of the world.

The winds of change originate in the unconscious minds of domain experts. If you're
sufficiently expert in a field, any weird idea or apparently irrelevant question that
occurs  to you is ipso facto worth exploring. Within Y Combinator, when an idea is
described as crazy, it's a compliment—in fact, on average probably a higher compliment
than when  an idea is described as good.

Another trick I've found to protect myself against obsolete beliefs is to focus initially on
people rather than ideas. Though the nature of future discoveries is hard to predict, I've
 found I can  predict quite well what sort of people will make them. Good new ideas come
 from earnest, energetic, independent-minded people.
