The Wire Season 1 - McNuggets
Will Ambrosini
A two-minute clip from The Wire season 1 in which D'Angelo explains, using the McNugget, that having an idea does not get you paid. It is a short monologue about who profits from inventing something.
HN posts it as a classic scene whenever threads touch on ideas versus execution or who captures the profit from invention.
