What Mark Pincus actually said

  1. Mark Pincus Founder and former CEO of Zynga
    we have these instincts like in our gut, these human level instincts that are pretty much always right. And then we put these ideas on top of the instincts that are usually wrong. And my rule of thumb is your instincts are right 95% of the time.
