The Blog of Harald

“I linked”:http://blog.cfrq.net/chk/archives/2005/07/25/out-of-context/ to a “Joel on Software”:http://www.joelonsoftware.com/ “article”:http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/HighNotes.html about the difference between average and best in software developers.

I finally tracked down “an article”:http://www.newyorker.com/fact/content/?041206fa_fact I read months ago, on the difference between average and best in healthcare (specifically in Cystic Fibrosis clinics, since they collect enough data to measure the difference).

It’s a fascinating read.
