Also average response time is a bad metrics. For one, the average is a bad measure if the variance is high. So I'll probably use 95% time instead of average. But as a PM I have a different question. Which is the impact of the response

I agree with your comment. Amazon has a problem of 1) how to police all this long-tail product, 2) how to onboard the number of sellers that needs to fulfill the demand for long-tail products. I'm pretty sure that if someone were to se

Mmm... 2.2B MAU. When you think about how they counted them, probably they used HyperLogLog. In usual configuration, it has a 0.7 - 1% error. Basically a medium-sized country... Or the number of users that any startup founder will die for..

Wow! You are saying no one in the US expects, or at least consider that could be an obstacle on the street in front of you? It doesn't mean necessarily a pedestrian. An animal? Cargo lost by a truck in front of you? It is the responsib

I read your comment. And I stand my point. Even being very very friendly and interpreting your comment in the way you clarified it, there is an assumption in your comment. The assumption is that Tesla will be able to bring their car to Leve

Nope, GM has already self-driving cars on the street here in San Francisco. Remember they own Cruise. So, GM has decided to go to Mars as Tesla did. It has acquired the tech to go to Mars and started testing it. In the meanwhile realized it

I think they have a problem with the location database. For instance, the location of my home, according to GMaps, is not on my street but on the parallel one. They have probably tried to do some smart optimization and f *d up. The only is

Going public by taking over a publicly traded company is a legit way to avoid the costs and complexity of an IPO. There are examples in the past, the most famous is probably Berkshire Hathaway, Warren Buffett's company. That said, a pr
