Agreed. That book is the bible in applying innovation diffusion theory to your marketing and product strategy.

I use to be in sales before I became an MLE. There is a theory called diffusion of innovation. The simple explanation is that there are 5 different cohorts of buyers. Early adopters, visionaries, pragmatists, conservatives and laggards.

I’m not a big poster at all, but ran into this precise issue. They analyze the video posts on instagram. If they detect the video has even a small amount of commercial value, they classify it as branded content and you need to pay for it t

Great article. I def experienced this new form of burnout. I’ve gotten use to working with AI systems to produce code, mainly the velocity of code production. It took me four months to develop an intuition of how to maintain a healthy pa

Im fortunate to live in an area dense with traditional taxis and Ubers, no Waymo yet. I rarely take taxis, the exception is when I have to haul my gear to the studio for a jam session. I always take a taxi, because it’s cheaper and faster

You completely missed the crux of the story. I'm speaking specifically to the example given by the author. He was approached by an engineer that saw a critical flaw in the software that goes beyond simple "backlog prioritization&q

I don't see things the way you do. You look at gaining recognition for good ideas as a zero sum game that requires self promotion. If you develop a good original idea that solves a problem and it gets implemented, you have created posi

I was wondering what preclinical models meant. It would be more accurate to call it animal models. I read roughly 3% - 5% of compounds move from preclinical cancer therapies to fda approval. That’s a tough success rate.

Very funny! I believe the concept of public decency is entirely cultural and has less to do with courage. Where I live, if someone is being loud in public, you usually keep to yourself. So long as they are not being overtly offensive or pr

It is for this reason I am grateful to be a gen xr. I was at the end of my 20s when social media blew up, so it wasn’t a meaningful part of my personal development. I cannot bring myself to look at IG and the hot mess it serves up daily.

No I’m not. Please read the first sentence of my post. I agree, it’s tough to be honest when you’re vulnerable. Expressing vulnerability exposes how people really feel about you.
