I can corroborate this - am on the same train and also freezing. Coffee in a pot was cold in under 10 mins.
Replying to @AvantiWestCoast
@AvantiWestCoast hey team just a quick one. Staff and passengers alike currently travelling on the 807002 train to Euston.. It's freezing, as ticket prices rise could you do the same with heating please.

I can’t believe it’s been 2.5 years since we started Angel Squad. Thank you, TechCrunch, for helping us highlight our amazing community. From the very beginning, Hustle Fund and I wanted to make angel investing more accessible.

Call me old-fashioned, but I'm not interested in constantly wearing giant VR goggles on my face.

I think I have a blog post in me on this topic as a PM who has done *a lot* of UI work over the last 11+ years. Here are some first thoughts... #1 - If your UX improvements are not in any way business outcome-oriented, you should NOT be pitching or doing them.
If your company’s OKRs are primarily business outcome oriented, how do you get UX improvements prioritized that don’t move a business metric?

#8 Point out the objective of a feature or the thing you all agree you want users to do to make the case for UI updates. For example, if it's critical for a user to fill out a form, but how/where to do/finish/complete it correctly isn't well represented, it needs to be fixed.

Good overall UX and a well-designed UI are really important to me and to every product, but don't throw your business acumen out the window. Prioritizing design should never mean disregarding business outcomes. Hope this was helpful! /end

Appreciation post for @canva, one of my absolute favorite products. Great functionality, easy to use, makes even me seem like a good visual designer (which is a FEAT!).

Ran a poll recently on concepts #productmanager s without an eng background wanted no-code explanations for. One of the top requests was #apis, so to start, made this infographic: przd.me/api-infographic. Enjoy!

For folks in or aspiring to #productmanagement roles who don't have an engineering background: which of these topics would you most like explained in plain language, without any code? If the topic you'd most like to learn about isn't an option, please put it in the comments!

Possibly controversial opinion: telling #productmanagers from non-engineering backgrounds to #LearnToCode to fill in knowledge gaps is like telling someone who wants to learn to speak French to study Latin. Sure, it could help in the long run, but there are better approaches.
