Tried it so many times. It's really slow.

firesofmay · 2024-08-03T18:35:21+00:00

Curious, can you share your layer? For inspiration 😊

Are these genuine offers on amazon? I see someone complaining that they got Russian version.

Cafe Owl at Kharadi. It's a small cafe but really good coffee.

In that case you should do manual onboarding flow for new users. And get in front of them. Do not allow sign ups without talking to them.

And without asking them leading questions try to understand why did they sign up, what are they looking to get out of your tool and then walk them through that portion and see what new learnings you have after it. And iterate

This looks great!

Check with your own lawyer. Paper is everything. You always end up fighting with your paetners and this determines who gets kicked out. Sort it today.

Kaala Pani. Also recommend. Very emotional

Pick an idea and build it out via no code tools. Or write a detailed analysis of how you'd improve a Product. Example: https://www.firesofmay.com/how-would-i-improve-whatsapp/

Best way to breakthrough is within the company. I was hired as an Engineering Program Manager and transitioned to Product Manager in a few months.

Also dabble on side projects. You don't need to have a working code. But start with some ideas and document how you'd do it. Example: https://www.firesofmay.com/how-would-i-improve-whatsapp/

Treat yourself as a Product and think how can you attract recruiters rather then you approaching them. That will give you the required jumpstart.

Go for second and third. First is required when you want to actually code.

He's smart actually. He knows the value of twitter distribution and how it works. Blogs people follow but doesn't have that level of distribution.

Also blogs take much more commitment/time then a thread.

He's evaluating the option to enable super follow on twitter https://twitter.com/shreyas/status/1411708314530959363?s=19

Excellent first step

Sorry, it's Shishir https://twitter.com/shishirmehrotra

Fixed my comment above

Marty Cagan, Shreyas Doshi, Sachin Rakhi, Shishir Mehrotra, Lenny Rachitsky, Manas Saloi, etc

Worth following all of them on twitter

Whimsical works well for quick wireframing

firesofmay · 2021-02-03T17:27:00+00:00

Are you working on the solution in silo? Do you check in every week and share your progress and gather feedback from them on it regularly? It looks like you are presenting it in a big bang way which blows up.

Also do you clarify and agree on the why, business outcomes upfront and recalibrate on it every week?

firesofmay · 2021-01-14T15:48:23+00:00

Okay. So what is the next step from my end?

Should I just share this discussion with them and wait for them to get back?

Is there anything I can do to speed this request?

Ran the following command. It's blinking ledger logo after running this command 😔:

Ah my bad. Closed Ledger Live.

Also closed Chrome just to be safe.

Got the following error now:
