Hubbard together…

Hubbard together with some friends in a book club setting. Previous parts…
Reading How to Measure Anything, vol. 2
(Summary in Finnish: Oppimispäiväkirjamerkinnät jatkuvat, hitaasti mutta kumminkin. Aiheena luvut 3 ja 4; luvusta 3 löysin paljon sanottavaa kun aloin kirjoittamaan.)
