Hinweis der Redaktion
- No Resources We had about 6 months of run away in our personal bank accounts. We’re running a Ad model, scale is the only way to make revenue. Time is your enemy
- Reduce Impact Reduce Chance
- test everything with sideline experiments We use ads, with this we can get the price point people will purchase ads at. Fake features, e.g podcasting
- Developers have 100% access to anything. Responsible for your own code Breaking the site is fine, just fix it, now There is a sense of urgency, deployment cycles are 5-10 times a day. Speed is everything, launch fast, fix it later
- don’t poison the well, particularly new starters
- Often people obsess about this, Different browsers don’t all need to look the same. Once you embrace this, you can do some very cool stuff. The site for a new user should be different to the site for a long term user… On ramps
- canary / test early safe launches, no deploying code product wise, dog fooding as we’re building. We can see the metrics tech wise, we can push risky features into production quickly.
- 80% of experiments fail AA tests, to self calibrate test suite We often run AABB tests, to confirm data
- 10% improvement monthly, will give a 300% increase Speed is everything.
