Still processing from yesterday's event (one of the most meaningful days of my life)— more to come—but a few quick things for now: 1. Thank you to everyone who came. You are what made it special. 2. There's so much need for IRL community. I've rarely felt this kind of pull for anything I've done. Wow. 3. All of the talks will be posted to my YT channel in the coming weeks. Get excited. 4. An unbelievable thank-you to the @Stripe team for helping me put this event on. It takes something special to create an event with 1,000+ PMs that has such great vibes. If you think they're great at payments infra, they might be even better at design and event production. High talent density over there. It's no coincidence that I've had more people from Stripe on my podcast than any other company. Thank you, Stripe. (A few photos from the event, more to come.)

I’m going to Lenny & Friends Summit in September to meet people whose work has taught me product for years. It feels like a reunion for a school I attended through books, articles and podcasts. So I made an unofficial yearbook.

The questions I’m bringing: 1) If AI makes it possible for almost anyone to build almost anything, what is a product team for? 2) How do we make each person’s work reusable by the team so its capability compounds over time? markedobservations.substack.…

There’s something hypnotic about swim tournament warmups. A pool packed with a ton of swimmers all getting into the zone.
Hoping for some clear skies over the next few nights
Flight attendant: Is there a doctor onboard? Dad: *nudging me* that should've been you Me: Not now Dad Dad: Not asking for a Product Manager to help, are they? Me: Dad, there's a medical emergency happening right now Dad: Go and see if “let’s have a follow-up meeting" helps
