I meant, they're going to become MORE the drivers of success. Not saying they haven't been drivers at all, I meant their role is going to become more and more important.

My guess is that as technology progresses, engineers are going to become the "main drivers of success" for many other industries as well: the airline industry, the automobile industry (self-driving cars) and so on.

Wondering why they've launched this as part of their Search App (and not as a stand-alone app). Maybe they're afraid of (yet another) anti-trust lawsuit?

"I didn't know that black-hat content marketing existed" (from the Twitter thread) I haven't laughed so hard in months :))) I've talked with over 150 founders (I'm running a website that deals with acquisition

Agreed. I'm really surprised why so many founders don't use it intentionally (like paying big-names to be 'powered by' their SaaS).

Author here. I disagree. When introducing something new, I want to start with HOW I came to the conclusion. Just my style. I understand you if you don't agree though.

Hey, author here. By "first users" I didn't mean they got their first users FIRST. But yeah, got your point. Changed the headline to "Powered by" - An Acquisition Channel Nobody is Talking About".

Don't get me wrong. I love the modern world we live in. But I miss the old days (1968 in this case) when the world was a big, mysterious place. The only analogy we have now in 2020 is space (but we're so far from "truly"

Well deserved. Love the simple animations (it reminds me a bit of Khan Academy).

I keep reading the same rehearsed arguments: Quantum mechanics, computer-related analogies, yada yada. Can we just state the obvious about free will: We still don't know if it exists.

Wow, just wow. I flagged your comment for a personal attack. I actually got around 7 people in the past 24 hours reply and say thanks, so at least add "I think" in front of your accusations. Anyway, I don't plan to get down t

Hey, sorry I wasn't clear. I meant 100s of approaches for extracting that knowledge (using questions from "The Mom Test" and so on). You've mentioned asking people about their sleep, what they do about it, what did they

Can you be more concrete? This all sounds good on an abstract level, but that's where it stops. 1) What approach did you take to "truly understand" your target segment (there are 100s of them) 2) How were you able to reach th

That's the problem with writing on a "first-class" publication. They won't allow you to cover the "dirty stuff" (what? posting on a stupid classifieds website? Let's talk about the beauty of SEO/AdWor

Wow, 7 years. Talk about persistence. I'm not really into violins (I play a piano, and have an ear for music so it takes me <10 minutes to hear something & play it). Seems it's the TOTAL opposite with a violin, and really a
