I see more great products built out of empathy for those suffering the problem than passion for a solution.

Amazon's Oracle data warehouse was one of the largest (if not THE largest) in the world. RIP. We have moved on to newer, faster, more reliable, more agile, more versatile technology at more lower cost and higher scale. #AWS Redshift FTW!

TIL: The music industry is being evolved by the metric of skip rates - what % of listeners will move to another song after 30s. 20% is good, 40% is bad. That & Spotify cares whether you add songs to personal playlists & then play it from there. Nobody can escape from retention.
