first 7 min = bios, a bit repetitive

Would you try another book from Mahbubul Alam and Neeli Prasad and/or Tom Kruse?

This is an interesting overview and worth the 66 cents. However, there is repetition between the early and late parts of the article, it feels like two authors wrote similar info and then combined instead of edit out duplication, and the first 7 minutes is incredibly boring bios of the authors. It should have been edited out.

What aspect of Tom Kruse’s performance would you have changed?

I personally find his reading boring, but then again, the article might just be too try and informational.
