Every question on govt web forms has a "help me" button Clicking it connects you with a case worker over live chat ... and adds 1 vote as a "hard" question Hardest questions evaluated & reworded monthly New question language A/B tested continuously ^ An entirely possible reality

Highlight of my first @PCAustin unconference was @DanCorbin's "What Engineers Love About Great Product Managers." Far from just ๐ŸŒฎ and ๐Ÿฉ, PMs should provide context ๐Ÿ“š, cover โ˜”, and compassion ๐Ÿ’™. "The reality is that PMs need engineering more than they need PMs."

In case you need a reminder, science is profoundly poetic. @FrankWilczek, a Nobel-winning theoretical physicist, asks "Does the world embody beautiful ideas?โ€ @onbeing, I adore you. onbeing.org/programs/frank-wโ€ฆ
Random thought for PMs and anyone else who manages humans: Your team members are the users of your PM process. Treat them accordingly: with empathy and respect, understanding their needs, and as if they may leave for another team at any moment. #ProductMgmt #ProjectManagement

Thank you, @rodneymullen, for being the first to bring tears to my eyes at #cfa2018. I had no idea there were so many vets and active military skaters. #whydidiwearmascara ๐Ÿ˜ข xitter.cf/mpbrown716/status/1002โ€ฆ โ€“ at Oakland, CA
"You leverage technology to bring old ideas into new dimensions and what you do changes lives." @rodneymullen at #CfASummit connects civic tech with skateboarding. "The vast majority of what we do is fall and get back up"
