So not only Slack didn’t kill email, but massively increased distraction. I’ve seen people using it and I am astonished by how much it impacts productivity (and battery life). I keep avoiding its use as much as I can > https://t.co/kTwFrwrair

“10 years ago, Amazon found that every 100ms of latency cost them 1% in sales. Google found an extra .5 seconds in search page generation time dropped traffic by 20%..” https://t.co/0LafaIWCyF

A wonderful internal research on software procurement highlights, once again, how much I don’t know and I want to know.

In late 2019, I tried the @udacity class “#AI Product Manager Nanodegree” to see what is being taught to professionals entering this space or looking for a career change. Software quality used for training (Figure Eight) and submission reviews are poor. Absolutely not recommended

Strategy requires an enormous amount of patience.
You plant an idea, and then you need to wait for it to become a realisation.
You find a pattern, and then you wait for others to see it too.
You expect a specific event, and then you wait for it to unfold.

Years of patience.
