Hugh Hefner has died

I know Steve Jobs is (still) idolized and discussed often among founders as a role model, but the truth is he was great at marketing and surrounded himself with the best possible people he could to be successful.

Hefner's story is far more fascinating of a case study. There's adversity, adoption to radical industry and cultural changes, there's controversy, and ultimately there's success through hard work and iteration. So, if you're a founder just now learning about Hefner because of his death, I strongly encourage you to go and read about him and his company's story.
