Well put. There is a huge simplification and again, very North American centric. I beg you, HN readers, apply what he wrote to other societies. I read on the top comments of people getting worried about the US becoming like former Soviet S

"It's futile to fight a war of words over who is right or wrong - let's instead use the economic success as a proxy for truth." Even though, that's the one of the core tenets of capitalism, I could show you that is

You brought up good points where for B2B and big corp type of product development requires different best practices. Also the politics from big corps or in B2B environments are very different than B2C. As simple as reviewing if you product

I do exactly what you do. I write up the cards in Jira and then the devs will have further discussions from that point and beyond. They also feel validated and they do bring good ideas.

I think if you are building something extremely technical such as products for devs, or Fintech stuff, you have to understand some APIs just to know enough that you know what you are able to deliver.

I agree. Most of the "best PM advices" are usually related to B2C facing products. How about PMs who develop tools for internal use? I think the recommendations also changes - not from the point of "know your customers"

I think there are many different types of PM and the "Great Product Manager" you are referring to is the PM who owns an ongoing Product and who is responsible for some of the business goals. I think most cases, including my own, t

I think it's not a dichotomy if it's good or bad, when you think from which stakeholder perspective you are using, the answer is diametrically opposite: "Outsourcing devs to India" - this may be an oversimplification - S

Not just about this title for this particular subject but dismissing people by telling them to just stop using or go elsewhere is also bad for almost everything else in life. Applying the same logic for: - "Whining" customers: jus

Your point is correct. There is no way the Liberal gov wants to get a fight at this point with both Conservatives and NDPs.

Only issue in your rationale is that the savers are usually the ones who own the "Capital". I'm not in the circle but my boss social economic strata, his type of people are buying Ferraris during Covid. Not sure how can an av

Not sure if I understood your comment, but for sure the employees once having nowhere to go back will be more "available" in the market just like many others in similar situation.

There are support for business to pay up to 75% and for small businesses a $40K loan with $10K forgivable. At least in Downtown Toronto, those support won't do much specially because the rent is super expensive. Expensive in the range

Being in Canada, I think that helped a lot of my friends who had expensive rent to pay in Downtown Toronto. But, it's not clear how the financial aid will help the small businesses; I can see that a lot of the restaurant in Downtown ar

Just one more thing, I noticed that companies that are trying to hire Technical PMs tend to be more familiar with the idea of PM who can code.

I think this is a great recommendation. Before going with lawyers, I think it's important to share your vision of how beneficial you are to the project. At the same time, you must know a bit more about the sales and the new potential o

Normally that does the trick, but it doesn't tell what went wrong so it could repeat again.

I'm sharing from Product Management perspective. - Director and above level PM can earn above: $140K CAD and beyond in major cities like Toronto. - Sr. PM can earn: above $100K CAD easily but harder to be above $150K CAD. - Bay Area -

Most opinions and suggestions are based on the "standard path of success". If we use beauty contest as an analogy of success, only one will be the winner and all losers. In case of North American perspective, success looks like th

I had a different experience than you had when I was working in Google Brazil. I was the first AdWords Product Specialist in the office - also, the office only had 50 people; it really felt like a startup in 2006. At the bottom of my heart,

I am trying to think some solutions but the crux is that users may be expecting to have a unique story tailored specifically to them. If that assumption is false, then we have some solutions: - save top or similar stories and make them pre-
