Aimless is right--Tumblr refined the blog in quite a few ways but yes scaling (and keeping performance metrics) were high on the list of accomplishments. Mainly I would suspect the management skill was managing engineers and sys arch people. 175 employees is no easy task, not to mention 100million visitors. Tumblr found the sweet spot and kept adding users (until last November, when they started to lose them).

i'm told that the vanderbilt ad is also the vice chancellor, so i guess that makes a little more sense

point of the map is that we should all aspire to be coaches on the college level.
where is the fucking reality show for that?

when we meet irl, ask me again
― markers, Sunday, 26 May 2013 14:24 (ten years ago) link
the short answer is yes
From 2000 to 2012, the annual production of master’s degrees jumped 63 percent, federal data show, growing 18 percentage points more than the output of bachelor’s degrees. It is a sign of a quiet but profound transformation underway at many prominent universities, which are pouring more energy into job training than ever before.
interesting way to put it
― iatee, Sunday, 26 May 2013 15:08 (ten years ago) link
GWU awarded about 3,900 master’s degrees in 2012, ranking 18th in the nation. Hopkins, with about 4,800, ranked ninth. Among others in the top 20 were New York (2nd), Columbia (3rd) and Harvard (15th) universities. The online unit of the for-profit University of Phoenix, which awarded about 18,600, ranked first.
