I’m going to share with you all something I shared with someone on an advisory call this week: Stop rewarding the academic theater of PM best practices. I’m tired of folks thinking you put insights into a magical PM framework and a great business spits out the other end.

"We decided to move our entire codebase to Rust [..] what did we learn? We all expect performance and dev processes to improve. Those indeed happened. What we didn’t expect was the extent to which dev velocity increased and operational incidents decreased."

In the 80s the news ran a segment about how Apple was failing because they made "toys" and they weren't business-y enough -- they were "flaky laidback California" and had a "prickly" founder.
