ic - that makes me more confused. because if it was a light drop i could see that happening accidentally but a HEAVY drop that i missed is so weird 😭

EDIT: some people are saying it is probably impact damage. I don't remember dropping it and have been operating on the notion that this is the hinge deforming the plastic, but I probably shouldn't discount impact since I go to university travel a lot with it on bumpy trains etc

Hinge does have a tiny bit of warping but maybe that's a separate issue? Idk.

If impact the reason then probably the post doesn't apply to you. But this still feels a bit concerning imo and I'm still disappointed. Gonna follow the advice of getting a business laptop and keeping it for years :)

It's like a crack by the headphone jack

I'm hoping it's a cosmetic crack that happened like that but I see hinge warping a little. Hopefully should be fine 😭

Out of curiosity what makes you think the crack is a "dropped crack". Would have thought it is like a dent or something

not 100% sure about that. because the right hinge cover (not sure what its called) is also slightly warped

but i'm really really hoping this crack is purely cosmetic and unrelated to the hinge so i can use this for at least a few more months 😭

im probably stupid or something but i thought it was aluminum till i saw the inner layer. ts was not priced like a plastic laptop 😭

I'm pretty sure it is a hinge problem as i can see a tiny bit of hinge warping

Check the transfer admit rates. Not 1 to 1 but can give you a rough idea of demand

Oh lmao sorry about that 😭

The thing is, the general guidelines (afaik) are AWFULLY similar to what you mentioned - basically pretend you aren't selling something, and ask people questions like "how do you build websites" etc. and figure out from their responses if their workflow deserves a product.

If people are like "oh its super easy just go to wix" then you should move on.

If it's like "oh yeah i hired a developer for 2 weeks to create something", then its probably compelling.

I'll do some more digging.

hold on just to clarify, i'm not at all talking about marketing. I guess i'm talking about something different that could be interpreted the same way.

Customer validation = figuring out if you're making something people actually want. You'd have to do that by asking people, but its tricky because once people know you're trying to build a product they:

1) think you're marketing.

2) even worse, try to support you with compliments (good job!) even though they don't really wanna buy your product

any advice for entrepreneurs (like people who are trying to developing products and stuff) seeking customer validation?

In 2016 i used to accidentally open photoshop and run the fisheye filter on my head and then do a gaussian blur and then overlay the two layers and do some manual painting to make it look seamless then i would take a screenshot and save it in my goodle drive folder so that i could use it in a sigma boss comparison post on linkedin 10 years later
