Even worse incompetence: they accidentally fired, then apparently today un-fired, hundreds of the people who manage America's nuclear weapons.

Strategy vs. Execution makes zero sense.
It is just ideology porn.

Instead, replace the vs. with an &.
Differentiate. Do the work.

Being a PM is just saying these things until you retire:

What is our goal here?

Is there an agenda for this meeting?

I'll take notes

What is the status?

Promising idea, but not now

Biweekly, as in every other week

Any way to get it done faster?

We should sync more often

You need to accept that a lot of what gets you recognition at a given megacorp doesn't actually matter elsewhere

After a few years at a megacorp, many of the new "skills" you gain are irrelevant for delivering customer value in the outside world.

So operate with this awareness.

Underrated idea:
Create a Work Stress Journal
Even if you don‘t normally journal

When you‘re facing a very stressful situation at work, write down the situation, how you‘re feeling, how you‘ll cope. Helps focus.

There‘s a bigger, long-term benefit from this practice.

Beyond satire.

It's 2020 and customer support is still a huge advantage if you want it to be. Nobody is expecting the founder to respond at odd times of the day within a few minutes with a fix that turns around within a few days.

Easy way to build really loyal, happy users.

People say I should break my 12-year Twitter hiatus to share my latest animated COVID chart. It compares state cases factoring in partisanship since June 1, when science had proven methodology as to how to stop the spread after the initial sucker punch. https://t.co/FvifckA30f

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

There he goes, projecting again.

[Shreyas Doshi @shreyas]

After talking to each customer about the problem of support costs, he should have asked them to stack rank that problem vs. all the other problems they were trying to solve for their business & for their organization.

THAT is where the real truth could have emerged.

Time spent has nothing to do with job done.

[Shreyas Doshi @shreyas]

We spend our entire careers working towards being “in the room where it happens”, only to discover that hardly anything actually happens in said room.

2/ The Bias-for-Building Fallacy

We don’t take the time to thoroughly understand the problem, domain, competitors & other determinants of product success because we feel compelled to be in constant motion. We tell ourselves we must begin building & just iterate based on feedback
