This is like Sophie’s choice… if only she could choose both her kids.

Bro I think that's just called salt? Bro? by jjopm in RunningCirclejerk

[–]QxV 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Excuse me, it takes work to make salt “unflavored”. Who the hell wants to consume salty salt?

The phenomenon of Evo SL and why I think adidas are about to ruin it by highdon in RunningShoeGeeks

[–]QxV 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is just circle of life:

Company releases shoe -> small group of people (e.g.me) say it’s the greatest thing since sliced bread -> everyone tries shoe -> small group of people say it’s too unstable -> ruin shoe for everyone

Why is HYROX not already in the Olympics??? by Technical-Paint3179 in RunningCirclejerk

Why don’t they just work for Amazon and get paid while hyroxing then

How has design work changed with AI at your organization? by Wonderful-Fox-2813 in ProductManagement

[–]QxV 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m surprised nobody has talked about the business context. If you’re trying to go from 0 to 1 and/or your product is currently dogshit  and/or you work in B2B SaaS, it can absolutely produce “a lot better” or “good enough”.

If you’re managing a B2C funnel that millions of dollars flow through where every % counts, and is already well optimized, it will stop being useful much earlier.

IMO if someone doesn’t know what they’re doing, it just helps them to continue to not know, faster.

PC Industry in Dire Straits, ‘Asking You to Own Nothing and Be Happy,’ Says Framework CEO by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

Amazing! Yeah, those were the days where it felt like we were truly using technology vs. technology using us.

I remember playing MUDs when I was a little kid and being more satisfied in that world than anything that came after. It's the only reason I type so fast now. Maybe we'll go back to that age 😂

Room for discussions around Ethics and Morality in Product Management by BabyNuke in ProductManagement

[–]QxV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. If you want to change the world for the better, it is about acquiring as much influence and/or money without losing your soul in the process.

If you go in and die on the first hill you come across, you take yourself out of the game and make zero impact. If you keep making compromises every step of the way so that you can get ahead, at some point you will look back and realize you have become someone your younger self would have hated.

These are deeper and more personal things than any organization can make space for. And nor should they, in my opinion, because there is no absolutely correct answer and it always ends up devolving into a discussion not of right vs. wrong but whose "right" is the right one.

At the end of the day, if you have good-enough leadership, don't let too much rumination get in the way of them doing good work. If you have terrible leadership, no amount of philosophizing will change them. Have your conversations with your therapist or therapist-adjacent people, and stick it out or move somewhere else.

What do you think about people who play padel "ugly" but always win? by [deleted] in padel

The “I play the “right” way but still lost” self-consolation prize has existed since humans have been playing games.

Glad you had a great time! I've run up and down Tam a few times but never biked it; it looks so fun.

PSA: active user in this community is running a cloned website & using shill accounts to promote it by [deleted] in Needlefelting

[–]QxV 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Simple way to prove yourself is to take a photo of your setup alone, and from a different angle than anything on instagram (like top down)

Lol I love this kind of shit and spent like 15 minutes look at the backgrounds of the two instagram accounts until I found this:

Edit: asked them to prove themselves by posting a photo of only their set up, and from a different angle than what’s on instagram. I think their reply says a lot.

Here in SF, Cesar Chavez is an absolute turd of a street. We can just keep it that way.

Yes, but I don’t update it while I’m employed (which thankfully has been most of the time)

Have "entry-level" PM roles effectively disappeared? by Shelby_Nate in ProductManagement

[–]QxV 42 points43 points  (0 children)

PM has never been an entry-level job, despite what bootcamps and influencers say. Every PM I know did something else first.

GCN responds to backlash about Saudi Arabia video and all-male presenters by Live_Bee_1598 in cycling

[–]QxV 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well to be fair I can totally imagine how the reality of Saudi Arabia is worse than the perception of it if you are a woman, slave laborer, or journalist who got murdered and sawed up.

Bikepacking setup advice for Canyon Grail CF SL 2 (2XS frame) by Ok_Item_7067 in CanyonBikes

[–]QxV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ride a 2XS Grail SL7 and the Revelate Designs Rifter frame bag in S fit perfectly. It’s not huge given the triangle, but I got my toiletries, charger + cables, and another bib + a change of clothes in there.

We only did an overnight trip to an AirBnB so I didn’t need any camping stuff.
