Herm takes its name from Hermes. This section is about people who have had a significant influence on me.

It began with Andy Grove. The first book of his I read, Only the Paranoid Survive, remains the book that has influenced me most deeply. It was the starting point for many things, so his section will always stay pinned at the top.

Everything here will draw on published, widely available sources or firsthand material released by the people themselves. I will include links and source references alongside the relevant material so you can trace it back to its origins.
