Episode notes
Shipping Good Work
- Ship only good work, exceeding a minimally viable product.
- Articulating a high standard allows for rejecting subpar work.
Good vs. Viable
- Minimum Viable Products (MVPs) don't yield good feedback because of incompleteness.
- Evaluate complete, smaller ideas instead of partial, half-baked versions for better insights.
Contextual Confidence
- Base your confidence level on both team and criticality of the problem.
- Avoid uniform testing rigor; calibrate it to the potential consequences of issues.
