It’s not why I did a PhD . . . but to lead a team like this, I need academic qualities . . . ” For once, he struggles to explain himself. You need credentials that are unimpeachable, I say? “Unimpeachable. That’s the right word.” Heroes: Charles Babbage Alan Turing --- *Source: [Original Google Doc](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1I28ptnaIRfrdGQj72k8cH4Wqm0b-BvRcwdHsaSJszjo/edit?usp=sharing&sa=D&ust=1596495076378000&usg=AOvVaw0TjtfCuTUJFfxxU8vNgXf4)*
