Based on my many years experience, I’ve developed 24 laws of ad tech product management. These are “laws”, meaning they are always true, everywhere. Thread...

The emergence of many new hypocrisies typically heralds an emerging new cultural synthesis.
Are you disturbed that you agree with one of those viewpoints? Or perhaps that other people you respect do?

Let me offer a framework for thinking about things like this, something called an “Omega Event.”
It was first described to me by Erik Martin, one of Reddit's first community managers:
In governance, Omega Events exist due to the fact that no system of beliefs, no worldview, no set of rules, can account for everything that will ever happen.
Eventually someone (or some group) will do something that lies outside the scope of all existing rules, and you will have to make decisions again from first principles.
Sometimes the Omega Event emerges from the confluence of many unrelated factors. When it does, it is wholly different from anything you’ve encountered.

20 Most Important Lesson of 2020
// A THREAD //
It was a fast and weird year.
The year of change.
My life changed a lot and I learned even more.
Here are the 20 most important lessons - which will shape the upcoming decade for me.
1. Systems Are Better Than Goals
In the past, I failed many of my goals.
This year I've realized that it could be caused by the fact that they were goals, not systems.
Thanks, @ScottAdamsSays for helping me realize this.

2. Use Notion More
@NotionHQ is definitely the most useful tool I've discovered this year.
I use it for:
- Twitter
- Freelance CRM
- Content Creation
- Website project management
And for personal use, it's completely free.
3. Email Is Immortal
This year we saw on social sites:
- Shadow bans
- Normal bans
- Decreasing reach (e.g. during the presidential election)
That's why I believe building an independent audience e.g. email list is mandatory.
