Seeking product market fit isn’t a fine art; it’s wielding a blunt instrument to strike gold. Part of my concern about some of the more academic takes on the practice of product management are that they almost make building great products feel like an inevitability. Smart people

The faster you are, the less good you have to be. See a problem, fix 60% of it in an hour? You're a rockstar. See a problem, hold 3 meetings, spend 2 weeks researching, and use 2 engineers to fix 90% a month later? You're a problem. Velocity is sustenance for a startup.
