I haven&#x27;t figured out what the (self taught) part brings to this equation. The way I interpret it is that self taught has a factor &gt; 1.0 which is better than someone who would have learned in college or some other form of learning? I get the (human communication skills)... that makes sense in the equation. Care to explain it? I figure if you take the time to write an equation, it might as well be explained in terms more formal? :)
