Wow, you’ve drank more Kool Aid than the Kool Aid Man.
I would strongly encourage placing less of your view of self worth outside of your “velocity”. That’s not the real world. Products will fail and it won’t be because you weren’t agile enough, it’ll be because the market is a jerk.
- bitL 8y agoLet's say if you move slow, your probability of failure is 99.8%. If you move fast, your probability of failure is 97.3%. Which one would you choose as a company owner who wants to be a top dog? The whole Valley is based on velocity when you talk to and observe actions of VCs, disposeability of young programmers and how companies structure their own internal operation, inspired by military.
- b_tterc_p 8y agoI would probably choose the company owner that wants to treat me like a human being? I actually haven’t heard much in the way of military analogies besides Palantir if I’m going to be honest, and I’m pretty sure they’re up there amongst the least desirable companies to work for in my eyes
