@ReasoningShow @allstacks Good episode. From the PM side, we see the same thing. This really shines a bright light on teams who produce documents for the purpose of producing documents. A PRD's job is to drive alignment between PM and eng. If you can do that with a prototype, why wouldn't you do that?
@EODHappyCaptain Is that MRAP in the picture the one that hit the IED? Amazing that it got blown up but is basically in once piece and all the guys inside walked out.
@RealCynicalFox You could have had 100 desalination plants running and the firefighters would STILL have run out. The issue was distribution, not supply. California is not short on water, certainly not in January.
Every reservoir in the state is at or above historic average, including Castaic
@dieworkwear That's the beauty of the marketplace. For some folks, it's a 911 for others it's a massive F-250. Generationally, younger consumers seem be less focused on cars as status symbols which seems like a problem for brands like Jaguar.
@samhogan It's one of those hyperbole things you say to be sure people get it. Ideas <> Thinking. Thinking and planning are super important, the "idea" part is just the spark and most orgs have way more ideas than they can build. So, value of a single idea approaches zero.
@maz_jovanovich Ya, in the USA elections are actually run by the counties for all practical purposes. States set the rules, but counties do all the work. In my county, it's a five minute thing. Insane that some counties can't run elections.
@mandhistorian I did that when I was 14, doesn't seem like that much weight. If you have a good pack and get the weight on your hips, you can carry that easy. It's all about how much vertical you have to climb. Flat trail? Piece of cake.
@maz_jovanovich No, just noise. You cannot repeal a constitutional amendment. They could pass a new one, but that requires 2/3 of congress or 3/4 of states. No way that happens.
@lucyqrow@WZG1889 NO. You get ONE ballot. It is assigned to you and has unique code on it. You cannot vote again because you only get one ballot. This is tracked by the election officials. System is very secure and has been tested over years. Almost zero voter fraud in USA.
@Techonosophy@levelsio Actually, if you invent the future and fail to commercialize it you've basically captured the entire essence of Xerox PARC. Well done.
@JustAnotherPM I've seen some super sharp political operators crash and burn. I would state it the other way. Support across the organization is a precursor to your product success. Achieving that is a political exercise by definition.
@damengchen @fahirmdz While Bay Area houses are insane, they aren't that insane. I just checked and there are 40 houses on the market in Redwood city right now, 3bed 2ba at less than $2M. Fremont, another 100. Don't get me wrong, $2M is nuts, but paying $3M is a choice you make.
