@RussWakelin Sorry if I'm spamming you, I will stop after this... Russ, is there anyway I can contact you about a predictions project I'm thinking about? The d6g e-mails seem to be bouncing back undelivered, and I can't DM you on X, I guess because I'm not a paying member...

Received my first ever “ducking via mail.” These two guys showed up in a mail pouch with the return address of #duckduckjeep in Michigan. I had to take a pic with them on my snowy NH Jeep immediately. Thank you secret MI Jeeper!

As a #productmanager I feel the need to challenge the assumption on why the original campaign failed. It COULD be that fractions are counter intuitive but: - Was it more expensive? - Was the quality better? - Does a larger portion = more sales? #productmanagement

In the 80’s, A&W launched a 1/3 lb burger to compete with the McDonalds quarter-pounder. But it flopped because people are bad at fractions and thought 1/4 was bigger than 1/3. (Cause 4 > 3, of course) They’ve now resurrected it as the ‘3/9 burger’. qsrmagazine.com/news/aw-turns-…

@lennysan “This idea does sound impactful. Let’s take a look at our current priorities and see what it should replace.” (Always have your current priorities & top backlog items too if mind for these conversations)

PMs: When you find yourself often having to say *no* to execs, what's a technique you've found effective to maintain their trust and not become the "no" person?

@tabletopteek @bopinion Yes! Great call back. I think I predicted this for 2019 so I was a few years off but better late than never.

It sounds completely implausible: a technology that could replicate the chemistry of the stars, unleash nearly unlimited clean energy and safely power the world for centuries. Yet we’re headed in that direction trib.al/E070hkF
