New study looking at markers of cardiovascular disease risk.
Most important risk factor: fibrinogen, a protein involved in blood clotting and inflammation. Cholesterol barely registered.
Interestingly, after diabetes, the biggest risk factor is being a white male.

A dumb PM will stare at an onboarding funnel for hours, fabricate problems, create months of work for engineers, and ultimately improve conversion by 5%.
A smart PM will look at funnel in a minute, make a button bigger, and improve conversion by 20%.

Don’t sell a product.
Educate someone on why it exists, why you created it, and how it’s going to help them.
Make it their decision to buy, don’t force it
