   I feel like we have phrases in software like bikeshedding particularly because these sorts of problems are common in teams. It’s not about being idiots it’s about software being more art than science and these things just being hard and peo

   Most of them do this. Like in the recent bashing of a bunch of senators for market insider trading a few of them had their money in blind trusts invalidating the criticism. One of them was Feinstein.

    I think if you can't get statistical significance than the growth team model is probably too early. You mostly need to be in the "invest" stage and not the "test" stage. That's not to say you can't try to

    It all comes down to knowing how a company makes decisions. What's the thing that sells. At most companies it is revenue, so you basically run experiments that correlate to revenue strongly and then use that causation to adopt new metr

    I think disrupting slack is a mistake. They are still in their infancy and have clearly built a solid product. Disrupt spaces and industries that don't have that :)
