Brief interruption.

It’s important to understand your preferred learning style and go all in on that learning style (vs. struggling / procrastinating as you force a non-preferred learning style)

Twitter is an invaluable resource for product people, much better than LinkedIn content.

Use it, and tell your PM friends to use it too.

But whom to follow?

I’m a fan of product/UI/strategy teardowns as a way to "learn-by-doing".

One teardowns resource I’ve recommended for a while is https://t.co/BSeVzFZSNG

There are a few out there (fellow PMs, please share more teardown resources below).

Lastly:

Be sure you want to be a PM. It’s a great role. I love it.

But PM isn’t the “step up” that ppl think it is.

There are other paths to success.

So choose it for the right reasons & be open to cutting your losses if you find out it isn’t for you

All the best!

Or, you could let us know when you figure out why it was trending yesterday and the users are complaining which is why Vice wrote about it. Why I'm saying what I am.

There's an assumption here that this problem is fixed bc it was already hacked.

It's not.


We have ppl freezing and dying in TX right now because some ppl who thought they were really smart never spoke to anyone with actual experience with energy systems in extreme cold climates.

Texans are waiting for a solution to a preventable problem.

Farmers are saying that now, not during a crisis, they have to wait for a JD tech to arrive to help them.

The assumption that bc SOME farmers said screw this and used hacked firmware to get around that obstacle doesn't mean that all farmers are doing that.

If all farmers were using hacked firmware we wouldn't be discussing this right now would we?

Of course no one has pointed out that another issue here is that no one at John Deere has figured out they don't have enough staff to quickly and reliably SOLVE problems.

The locked firmware is just one of many issues here.

By not giving people a fast solution they're causing this and other issues.

So what I'm saying is somebody at John Deere needs to examine all of this.
