Turns out, if a social platform lets people pay for a premium profiles & promote their content over others... You get flooded by people who WANT to amplify extreme views and drown out the middle. interesting, agandaless posts also get swamped. I'm @rogernort on that other app

i enjoyed this very nuanced perspective on a very practical, but still exciting, future of powerful AI could look like https://t.co/nQlQY9IX3A

The richest guy in the world (who runs 5+ companies and a political campaign) being top 20 globally in Diablo 4 says more about how it's pay-to-play than any brilliance on his part. #JustSaying

But locking baskets to user over addresses is not it.

That behavior would help my wife and I in the CBD, but also allow parents to share grocery orders with their kids. I could review my mom’s order, add flowers and pay. An office can have a shared list that the admin person auths. So much potential…

Here’s what I’d love to see: - create user account - add address - send invite link for address - shared shopping list with product search - “order” list with checkboxes to uncheck - highlight what’s not in stock - pick alts. or skip - place order on card linked to account

Here’s how we use it in my household: - we both login with my wife’s account - I add my discovery CC for the rewards - we both intermittently add items to the basket over a few days - when we need milk/bread we fill it and order. - in your new app I keep needing a pin from her

@peopleinproduct now has a private and exclusive channel for product leaders and industry experts in PMgt.💃🎉 We’re focused on keeping the initial group small for obvious reasons. If you’re a senior PM, product leader or you know someone, DM me for the link to fill the form!🙏

I can't help but think that the MKBDH app is the perfect example of the 💩 generated by AI code. Turns out you'll need professional software devs for a while still...

I wish there was an 'ignore' option for AI bots trying to join a video call.

This final footnote is probably more important than the rest of PGs founder mode post. I'm surprised it didn't make it into the copy...

Gall's Law is one of those statements that just keeps hitting harder and more deeply the more time I spend with it. At first it seemed false, then a truism, then an interesting insight, and now a foundational belief about the world.
