@MartinGTobias Love this.

I also am a big proponent of not moralizing things as good or bad.

Before school I love telling my daughters ‘make strong choices’, so they don’t have to unlearn it later in life like I had to.

People don’t make money mistakes.

Change the defaults and everything changes.

@rauchg @TomasVorel I heard from early travel site aggregators like Hipmunk that adding latency / spinners (with progress messages) made the app feel like it was working hard and conversion went up.

@darrenmarble @RichardsJourna1 Accountability yes, approval no. Approve the plan and be accountable to it. If a slurpee machine is ‘on-brand’ culturally and maps to culture / lowering attrition, great.

@DanEbs @m2jr @HarryStebbings Paying customers would be very upset if your solution didn’t exist because there are no sufficient substitutes

@venturedan @_jacksmith @billcom Great response.
