@Carnage4Life I agree 100%. Customers don't buy solutions to hard engineering problems. They buy solutions to their problems.
@Carnage4Life Is the product really all that terrible?

@Carnage4Life No one wants to buy technology that does not solve any problem.
@Carnage4Life Profound examination of tech culture. All work ain’t good work.
@Carnage4Life I dunno, I think both takes are right here. Figuring out how to do this stuff is very valuable and can be leveraged in some way
@Carnage4Life Hard work is necessary but not sufficient in business. It's a human characteristic to expect a reward for hard work. That's how we train our kids. We never train them to think about the outcome of the work.
