And this: "Not to be outdone, the software team challenged themselves to complete the full user experience so that our customers would fall in love with the way they engaged the product and actually experience joy as they used it."
- taberiand 9y agoSeems like that's the goal of all companies today - turn everything into a skinner box aimed at directly stimulating the pleasure senses while stimulating a stream of money from your bank account. Maybe it failed because the lock was sold as a one off payment instead of a subscription model, and didn't sync (yet) with a dopamine-dosing brain implant.
- TeMPOraL 9y agoIndeed. That's why I'm skeptical when they say they care about the customer. Most of the times, they don't give a flying fuck about the product itself and whether or not it actually does anything useful for customers - the whole point is to get into someone's wallet; the product is just a proxy (and often customers themselves are a proxy too, to get more money from the investors). Getting paid for building something valuable seems to be a dead concept in the startup economy.
