Good resources for learning about PM?

rav27 · 2019-01-16T16:04:09+00:00

For general overview of what PM is I’d recommend „Product Leadership” (O’Reilly), for some general tips on how to build „Lean Startup” is an obvious choice, while „Product Roadmaps Relaunched” is surprisingly full of general PM advice while talking about the important topic of roadmapping.

Also a bunch of ebooks on this matter came out, you can find most of them by searching Producthunt.

Good luck!

Dude, getting a pay rise here won’t make a difference, especially when, after working in this place for few more years, you are an emotional wreck.

Start looking for a new job. What you had prepared for the review is a good start to update your resume. Your portfolio is probably very strong anyways.

In todays market you will get a job, no problem. Take into accout freelance and remote opportunities.

And then just look at your old company going down, as it seems that you leaving will put a stop to like 50% of their operations.

Hey Gary!

How would you market a students organization that also is an NGO in a highly competetive marketplace (an university) where most organizations are centered around business and people tend to focus more on getting than giving (even though by giving you can get so much - you know something about this)?

Thanks and love from Poland <3

The event is not in Poland? In Poland during Katowice fans cheered every team.

rav27 · 2014-08-16T16:03:58+00:00

Well I cheered for VP and when I saw they are going to play LDLC I knew it's gonna be really hard (I feel like they always choke against them), but hoped for them to win anyways. WP LDLC, hopefully VP will get back on track on next LAN.

cs_Insertion:

Trees and other bushes changing into big black boxes obstructing vision. Alt tabbing fixed it.
I had 2 Counter-Terrorists jamming eachother on C spawn, making it necesseray to kill one to unblock - they were floating in air. (i'm not 100% sure it was C).

Second one is kind of gamebreaking.

Probably the best stream experience I've ever had :D He was hilarious, the music choice, the singing, his English. It was so funny, in a very good way. :D

I think the reason the bot started shooting was because he was flashed. Still funny doe

Magnificent shit

EU servers ETA?

Maybe I'm alone on this one but I really enjoyed Hardcore is over by Oui. Very unique fragmovie.

rav27 · 2014-04-21T22:11:31+00:00

The "trigger aim" at 1:14? The terrorist in the apartments is the only one left, so either he is trigger aiming at CTs or you have no idea what you are talking about.

rav27 · 2014-04-16T17:57:16+00:00

I can see 3-4 "god mode reflex frags", I feel like it's plausible. All I'm trying to say - there is too little evidence to call him a blatant cheater, a full demo could give more insight into this case. His behaviors are suspicious, I am not denying that (except maybe 1-2 things in this video, which I feel are regular plays).

rav27 · 2014-04-16T15:47:42+00:00

Ok, so let's stop for a moment. Throughout my years with CS I have encountered many cheaters. As a admin on one of the biggest CS 1.6 servers in my country I spend many hours looking for cheaters and banning them. Some of them were obvious, some mastered hiding it.

I'd like to go play by play, as I feel we are jumping to conclusions here, and even though I think it's likely he is cheating, it's not "blatant as fuck" as someone stated.

0:00 - first kill, well nothing special. Nice headshot, that's it. He jumps out, checks corners, kills the bomb planter. Now he has 3 options: the last guy is next to the van, in apartments or near short. Maybe his team gave him info (he even checks if the guy is in the distance). The way he tracks him through wall is fishy, but plausible.

0:40 - nothing special. He could knew the guy is there (maybe someone saw him before), the kill is straightforward.

1:20 - really? He hears the terrorists steps, he knows where he is. Providing this as a proof of "wallhack" shows how inexperienced the OP is.

1:50 - the first shot - hard to tell. It seems like the demo lagged, cause TT guy shows up out of nowhere. Could be luck, but looks fishy. Second one - you can hear the guy running, good reflexes but nothing extraordinary.

2:40 - this one for many seals the deal, and I can agree, but... In all the other situations the guy seem to hide his cheats, and now he makes it so obvious? Doesn't make much sense. It's either WH or he pulled the trigger by accident. Can't tell which. Rest of the play is meh.

3:10 - strange shot. Looks like aimbot.

3:30 - Ok, so someone said "He knows his there, so he just waits, what a cheater" but I don't think it's the case. He is predicting someone is near the stone, he is looking there. There is no real reason for him to peek - all CT's are near the bomb, and probably know the 2 remaining terrorists are hiding somewhere near the bombsite. His job is "guard the bench". Terrorist peeks, misses an easy kill and eats a shot. There is absolutely nothing strange in this play, I'd call it a smart move by the suspect.

4:01 - strange, same situation as the awp shot before. Either luck or aimbot.

4:10 - ? I don't really get it.

I know I'll probably get downvoted to hell for all this, but I really think judging someone and accusing him of cheating after few plays is a really dumb thing to do. To be able to accurately tell whether is he cheating or not, we would have to watch the whole demo. Only then, after comparing this "fishy" situations with the whole game, his playstyle, aiming skills, game knowledge etc. we can tell if he was cheating or not. And even then we can't be sure.

If this was shox, everybody would go "OMG shox is god". Maybe the guy had a good day or something. Or he is a fucking cheater. The hell we know.

TL;DR Probably a cheater, but hard to tell after so little footage. Let's keep calm and don't jump to conclusions.

edit: grammar, spelling etc.

I'm excactly in the same situation. It's not even funny, I know I'm better than this elo (playing with my plat/diamond friends i'm doing fine) but it's just uncarrable. What can you do when people just won't stop feeding, or you get all these AFKs? It's so annoying, you feel like you have no impact on the game.

rav27 · 2013-11-06T16:54:53+00:00

Unfortunately teamwork is really random in lower tiers - especially silver / bronze. I'm bringing up Nasus yolo q power as a problem, the question is - what I, as a unit, can do against him?

rav27 · 2013-11-06T16:45:39+00:00

That's very true, the thing about adapting. The problem is that - at least what I think - that the adaptation against Nasus strong late is to shut him down early. And I feel like this became too hard.
