Interesting article but I wish the author would be a little more concise. Rambling on about football picks when the topic was teaching was a bit annoying even though he tried to tie the two together.
The topic was inability to measure and rate people for a given profession. The recent (and ongoing) discussion about why great programmers don't get paid more is equally relevant. It's about information asymmetry which prevents efficient allocation of resources. But my sentence there was nowhere near as entertaining as Gladwell's anecdotal writing.
