Yeah, there's a lot of bad product folks out there. It's a valid criticism. I hope I'm not one of them.

As someone who is in the product realm, one thing that has frustrated me about engineers is how difficult it can be to get Engineers to see see where the puck is going, let alone to skate to it. Many seem to want to operate much like a comp

You missed the takeaway of OP's message - OP is saying that the message, as it was broadcast, was not authentic because it was a long, meandering explanation, burying the part where people are losing their jobs in the last sentence of

Of all the boogeymen that have been attributed back to China, I think the one that's potentially most insidious is the taproot Tiktok has into the captive collective. Just imagine the kind of power you'd have to be able to turn t

I didn't understand why my parents seemed so ambivalent when I'd come to them with the early fruits of the internet and try to get them to buy in and get excited. Now, I'm doing the same thing when people try to "explain

I was a paid customer, and I still support ProtonMail's mission, but the app experience drove me to cancel my paid subscription and go with FastMail instead. The mobile client and desktop were never in sync; I'd swipe an email to

I believe that clear, concise communication should live at the top of every message. Thoughts, feelings, explanations; that stuff goes down below. "Today, I have to announce unpleasant news: in the coming days, Klarna will be downsizin

I don't think you need to be brutal about it, but being more direct would have been better here. Someone else already captured the essence, but this was all over the place and still didn't really convey that 700 people were losing

Good riddance. If you survived on cheap cash burn and never bothered to shore up the fundamentals, well, the free ride is over now, kiddos.

The consumer shouldn't have to parse whether or not their goods are genuine... that's squarely in the wheelhouse of the merchant. This is Amazon's problem to fix, don't you even for a second suggest foisting this onto th

I do love the Marathon watches - they are truly a tool of timetelling. I just happen to like my Tudor more :D

I came into collecting modest watches around 2010. There was certainly a renewed interest in mechanical watches at the time, a lot of it being driven by things like MaleFashionAdvice on Reddit. I believe MFA had a significant hand in rescui

I have repeat purchased from vendors on eBay for different items based on previous experiences. eBay makes that easy - Amazon is the complete opposite. They hide the vendor as much as possible.

I used to drive this route regularly a decade ago - as a closeted av-dork, I always loved it. This streetview angle just gave me one of those memory-powered dopamine dumps. Thanks :)

As a BUYER, the FB marketplace experience is TERRIBLE. Seriously, it's beyond bad. Searching for an item gives you different listings every. single. time. It's a dice roll if the faceted search works. And that's on top of the
