The bar next to each date shows how long ago it was said: 7d is days, 4yr is years.

Zvi Mowshowitz loved it
Tyler Cowen will often praise a book by saying it is interesting on every page. Together with Daniel Gross, he has written a book that very much matches this description.

José Luis Ricón liked it
In succeeding at explaining what sort of things to look for when finding top talent, the book also succeeds as an example of the fundamental importance of tacit knowledge in making these decisions.

That little bar

It says how long ago something was said, so you can tell last month from 2014 without doing the arithmetic. Full and green is recent; it drains and cools as the date gets older, and empties completely at about 6 years.

A striped bar means the date itself is an estimate — the source did not carry an exact one. An entry with no date at all gets no bar.
