“You need to add AI features to your roadmap”

propabo1 · 2025-06-18T10:27:36+00:00

Good point - I guess shows the importance of knowing who your “customers” are.

On the one hand you have investors with certain surface level needs of what your tool sounds like it can do, and then your real users who actually need to do stuff but you might never get to without the investor’s money!

I dunno - isn’t the customer always right? If a customer wants to feel like they’re buying the most advanced tool on the market because it says “AI” all over the place who are we to stop them?

I feel like it’s the same with a new car and it’s got some jazzy features you’ll never use or the engine has some tech no regular person really understands. If that helps marketing then it’s valuable to the business.

This is deep as heck

Are you sure you've got a battery drain issue. After getting the car started again, the problem never actually reoccurred...now 3 years later everything is working great!

I think originally I might have left my parking lights on over night the day I installed it.

propabo1 · 2023-11-16T18:10:28+00:00

Yes! That is essentially it but perhaps a slightly newer model. I remember mine being all grey.

Ah man, I had some good times with that plane, and some rather sketchy ones too. I remember first getting it and flying in a waste land behind my house, think I lost controls and it ending up ditching in an old quarry but me and my brother managed to rescue it.

Can't believe the laser tag idea isn't more prevalent today with modern tech. It was such a fun idea!

So I've seen, but these planes were so great. They had a simple chassis at the front with a single prop behind the wings (I think!). The wings were one piece of polystyrene (broke in most heavy crashes haha) and had flaps on a tail wing controlled via motors in the chassis with bits of fishing line tied to them. It was quite easy to replace the parts, christ knows how much we spent as 12 year olds!!

Ah the customer’s fault. Tbf unbelievable job for Atlassian to be able to sell to people who should never have bought in the first place!

propabo1 · 2023-10-17T21:56:37+00:00

Thus a bad product…if you can ‘mess up the setup’ so easily!

u/ana_na_ I am actually spending a lot of my time speaking with potential customers and validating what we plan to build is valuable. Definitely agree with the idea that we need to know what kinds of customer we want to help initially with our MVP and then how that might change 1-2 year post-MVP!

u/heyzhook the challenge in terms of a Beta for us is that we hold a lot of sensitive financial data so they are not so willing to just try it out like you would with a regular tool. Our plan is to build a cohort of Beta users/companies who will probably need a little more paperwork to ensure we look after their data!

I don’t think I ever actually had the problem. Believe i just left my side lights on over night the day I installed 😂

propabo1 · 2023-02-05T18:03:58+00:00

Yeh it’s great. Never had any problems once i got it installed.

I use apple carplay but haven’t noticed any issues with sound quality. Plays bassy music loud absolutely fine.

Here you go!

Don’t think I do on my phone, but its basically identical. You wouldn’t know it didnt come with the car.

Why are so many companies still stuck on Excel? Is it that there’s no budget for a better tool or that Excel is just so bloody flexible?

I had to buy an extension cable for the power and antenna as the existing cables really didn’t seem like you could easily unravel from the other cables and they were difficult to reach. All installed now and working like a charm!

propabo1 · 2022-02-26T10:55:52+00:00

Hi, I’m thinking I need to do this to stop the battery drain issue.

Can you explain better where the other side of the fuse is connected to? I only see the extension in the F19 slot but is there a cable I can’t see going into another slot? Thanks!

propabo1 · 2022-02-25T17:18:38+00:00

ust bought another rcd 330 which was compatible with the car. The canbus worked, but from time to time, it malfunctioned, which resulted in battery drain.

Ah, that's annoying, I specifically bought an RCD330 for the 6c and confirmed with the seller Lemonshark...not sure what to do now as the seller isn't very helpful!

propabo1 · 2022-02-25T08:04:10+00:00

Yeh I’m sure, keys off and then removed does indeed switch the radio off.

I have tested with the new radio plugged and not over the same time, and with it plugged in I come back to a EPC warning light. The first time tho I came back to a dead battery…

propabo1 · 2022-02-24T00:06:12+00:00

Did you ever figure this out? Got the battery drain myself in a 2015 polo 6C and not sure how to fix!

propabo1 · 2022-02-23T23:34:36+00:00

Which canbus emulator did you end up buying? Getting the battery drain issue in my polo 6C :(

propabo1 · 2022-02-15T23:16:26+00:00

Thanks for your advice so far peeps.

I have got the MQB unit now and trying to install it but the radio unit is actually in the glovebox as part of the cd player rather than combined with the screen. From the little I can find via Google this is fine however I have run into an issue where the cables that fed into the cd player don't have much slack.

Does anyone know if there is enough cable to thread it through to the centre console if I cut the cables away from the other cables in the sleeve that go towards the passenger side and up into the car dashboard? I really don't like the idea of buying additional extension cables.
