    Thank you for asking a question that you were afraid to.

    You could just have easily moved on, but instead you give others the opportunity to share their knowledge and subsequently you give other people opportunities to learn.

    Maybe one day we can have an internet not so full of snarky replies, and instead one where everyone is given opportunities to learn, and ask, without fear of being belittled.

    In order to give those with knowledge the opportunities to share, we need to ask questions that are indicative of our current understanding (or lack thereof).

    It may sound silly, but asking questions really is a vulnerable act. Genuine questions are often met with unjustified and unhelpful hostility on the internet.

    tl;dr: Thanks for asking! Now I’m wondering the same thing.

    edit: a word











  • You mean these reasons?

    1. It’s important to start small and iterate The film centres around Dr Heiter’s ambitious plan. His MVP involved “connecting” 3 dogs. The experiment didn’t work out well but gave him invaluable information for his next attempt. PM takeaway: Start small & iterate

    2. Concentrate on the problem, not the solution Dr Heiter spent so long trying to determine whether he could perform his operation that he forgot to coherently explain why he even wanted to do it. PM takeaway: Don’t get obsessed with technology. Concentrate on use cases.

    3. Sustainability is important It didn’t take long before the victims of his scheme started to suffer from his short-term thinking & poor hygiene practices. PM takeaway: Even the best product has tech debt - you need a plan to mitigate it

    4. Communication is everything Dr Heiter reduced his chance of getting timely user feedback by only allowing one of his victims, a Japanese man, the ability to speak. Crucially, Heiter didn’t speak Japanese. PM takeaway: Give everyone a voice & be aware of cultural differences

    5. Where there’s a will there’s a way Dr Heiter was eventually thwarted through a combination of the efforts of his victims and local law enforcement. They battled incredible odds to “win” the day. PM takeaway: Even when times are hard, sometimes you have to keep pushing
