Like germs in the air, harsh weather, and invisible contaminants—violence is endemic to the human social condition, and if you do not have the resources (public or private) to secure protection against forces of violence, you are not safe, and your well-being is not secure. In fact, your ill-being is quite assured.

The Locust Effect

Gary A. Haugen, Victor Boutros

Several variables contribute positively to the innovation-inducing values variable, such as trust, the willingness to take initiative, the desire to achieve on the job, teaching children to be independent, and the acceptance of competition. In addition, economic freedom is important. One variable—an emphasis on teaching children to be obedient—has a negative impact on the latent values variable; hence, it may reduce innovation.

Edmund S. Phelps, Raicho Bojilov, Hian Teck Hoon, and Gylfi Zoega

Team Size This is a very practical principle. The minimum size for a product team is usually two engineers and a product manager, and if the team is responsible for user‐facing technology, then a product designer is needed, too. Fewer than that is considered below critical mass for a product team. On the other end, it's really difficult for one product manager and product designer to keep more than about 10–12 engineers busy with good stuff to build.
