Excerpt:
Getting It Right by Betting on Wrong
Imagine driving from Denver, Colorado, to Death Valley National Park.
You get on I-70 and head west, climb the front range, cross the high peaks of the Rockies, descend Colorado’s western slope into Grand Junction and then make your way across the Utah dessert to Fishlake National Forest, which, if it’s springtime, is likely on fire. Here you collide with I-15 and turn left to head south.
In the deepest dark of night, eleven hours into your drive and two short of your destination, the long smear of the Milky Way Galaxy fades behind the neon lights of Las Vegas. Against your better judgement you stop and wander into a casino. They immediately recognize you as a programmer and force you to choose one of two sides in a permanent bet.
