PM, 🙈 Privacy @meta

[cantlin @cantlin]

@mhudack @SlingMoney Need to reinstall from US App Store for that. Nothing will break if I do that right?

[cantlin @cantlin]

@mhudack Was just writing sitting here writing a 22 digit IBAN into a wire transfer thinking this is the dumbest thing in the world. Remembered @SlingMoney, had 10k USD in GBP in <60s. Magic!

[cantlin @cantlin]

Off to NYC today, starting a month in the US meeting the new team. Also taking a trip to Oregon to 🏃‍♀️ run Hood to Coast while we’re there. It’s gonna be a ride. Can’t wait!

[cantlin @cantlin]

@theefer @mhudack Totally!

[cantlin @cantlin]

@mhudack Curious what you mean by ‘outmoded notion of “fairness”’?

[cantlin @cantlin]

@mhudack In other words, the fact that rail services don’t participate in a consumer market isn’t the problem (or rather, it’s an inescapable reality).

The problem is public sector employees don’t generally work in a transparent internal market for good ideas, speed and execution.

[cantlin @cantlin]

@mhudack In fairness, I don’t think this is totally wrong. But with a couple of simple changes you can have a public institution that also works:

1. Public services must have public dashboards with metrics and targets
2. Performance and pay are tied to success (as in the private sector)

@mhudack Feature request for whoever picks this up 😇

"Quick Sync" – make an async ask to a team member for a 5m VC. Customizable urgency level. Hangs around until "Picked Up" or retracted. Attendees go into "Ducked Out" state from current meeting. 🦆

[cantlin @cantlin]

@neillyneil The space before the double question mark really lands additional impact. Like the pause before a "...you what?"

[cantlin @cantlin]

There’s absolutely no limit to this transformation. X will be the platform that can deliver, well….everything. @elonmusk and I are looking forward to working with our teams and every single one of our partners to bring X to the world.

[cantlin @cantlin]

@thommeread Great to hear, thanks Tom!

[cantlin @cantlin]

@willguv There are some good reasons https://t.co/I0DMZ7zz8z might want an app – lots of countries have useful ones.

The red flag here is that the “priority” is “build an app,” not articulating the underlying value to people.

[cantlin @cantlin]

Product is marketing. No one understands this like Apple.

[cantlin @cantlin]

A critical organisational asset to anyone, especially PMs, is to have people you can talk to *before* you can frame the problem. When it's just a mess in your head. These trusted folks accelerate getting to framing, where you can scale the solving exercise.
