This is the best thread I've ever read on HN. It's like going to a conference without the time and cost spend. How about a product that does this thread once a week. Half therapy half happy hour.
- ThomPete 10y agoI started the original thread last year:https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9799007 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9799007 and the discussion was so valuable and resulted in this essay https://medium.com/black-n-white/the-problem-with-problems-47ee63bb3511#.7gt7sglel https://medium.com/black-n-white/the-problem-with-problems-4... We been talking about doing it monthly. And I have been talking with a few people about creating a conference around it. No pitches, no ted-lets save the world speaks. Just problems and people who are looking for problems to solve.
- mathgeek 10y ago> No pitches, no ted-lets save the world speaks. Just problems and people who are looking for problems to solve. What ideas have you come up with to efficiently match up the problems with the solvers? Seems like pitches would still be involved somehow.
- ThomPete 10y agoI am thinking that pitches are for solutions. So I don't think that would be a problem. The problems would be conversations.
- vit05 10y agothis topic reminds me the time I worked for GE. I was continues looking for something to use on Kaizen.
- ThomPete 10y agoI am pretty sure if you did exit interviews with people at GE before they went on retirement you would be flooded with problems and insights.
