I think these two are two dimensions. You can have any combination of: a) single branch vs feature branches b) code review as a norm vs not required (I'd rather draw a line with code review being/not being a norm, rather than whet

YC couldn't care less how well these companies fare post-IPO. Post-IPO, their job is essentially done, and they cash their investment. They're probably busting champagne if the peak valuation is instantly after IPO. That means the

Sure, it was way easier to move at Google in the early 2000s than it is now. Yet, one has to admit they still keep trying. The list of products that they tried and killed doesn't show signs of stagnation: https://killedbygoo

The last YC batch was like ~170 companies, correct? Each year, there are like 150 million startups. So let's not take YC stable for the whole startup ecosystem. And I'm with you with a critical view on their all-in move toward AI

OK, let's assume you can get food for free (or close enough). Like if you were super rich, and the cost was absolutely marginal for you. How many dinners a day can you have? You would still rely on alternative proxies, like recommendat

Big Techs do have ways of rolling out new services step by step. Paul Buchheit's stories about Gmail and AdSense are good examples. I was an early Gmail user when it was invitation-only and invitations were scarcely distributed (only a

Of course, Big Techs have leverage of their bottomless coffers. What they can't develop, they buy. What was the last successful product idea coming from, say, Facebook? Or on a smaller scale, what's the last genuine Attlassian suc

My experience correlates with this assessment. The closer we are toward prototyping, the bigger leverage we gain from quickly generated swaths of code. It's simply because we don't need to care about all the quality guardrails. Af

In no part was that suggestion addressed to software design/architecture. It is telling that, while the article's theme is product management (and its relationship with the pace of development), that context is largely ignored in

I would actually challenge you to read/reread Lean Startup with the following filter: Disregard parts that explicitly assume that they are relevant only because, in 2013, development was expensive. There are very few parts that you w

I heard that before. No, Lean Startup is not about working around the cost of software development. It is about designing good experiments, validating, and learning, so that when we're down to development, we build something that'

Sure. And yet, last time I checked, we've had plenty of applications for maps. I like this metaphor. Looking at a map, we may get a pretty good understanding of whether it's a place we'd like to spend time, say, on vacation.

Oh, development sure does mean the whole package. Architectural design, automated tests, coding, refactoring, code review and post-review changes, deployment, manual tests, etc. A question: what if all those activities are to build a featur
