I agree that 'lousy team' could describe a team that can't deliver squat. In that case market will get what it needs from somewhere else, because the pull is that strong. Maybe i'm going too far, but i interpreted this

A great success by the threes team for sure. But I have to wonder what if that final version had been banged out in the first weekend, would it have been recognized as the winner? Would a team then stop innovating and switch to build it (an

Bigger takeaway from the article: it takes Google 3 months to fill a specific engineering position. "Google, for example, took an average of 97 days to fill computer-related jobs (primarily software engineers)" I'm a dev not

just a thought & playing devils advocate, but maybe think of it the other way? Non-techies might want analytics to feel more techie? Analytics isn't a rare term nowadays, especially for anyone interested in your product. AB test

I agree that it is similar, but that's the nature of all businesses, right? Prior performance is used all over the business world to justify decisions. I'm sure you've heard "Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM"
