How to build a product that sells itself:
1. Convenience: (Is it always there?)
2. Reliability (Does it always work?)
3. Does it do the basics *really* well?
Products that did this for me in 2018:

@metabase
@Bose QC35 headphones

1. Find solution to a specific problem.
2. Solution imposes structure and creates a habit which solves the problem.
3. Over time the habit created becomes pathological, extending far beyond the original problem.
4. You’ve transitioned to starting at the solution, not the problem

@visakanv Nice! I think also when people see their identity as being fixed over time, "I'm just being myself" can be used to justify being an asshole, or being too nice. There are many parts of “yourself” that can change over time. I think mine would be: “Be sincere and communicate well"

@colmtuite By "Need" in this context I mean market need - people often buy things they don't actually need. I think creating full fidelity output will always require more detailed knowledge of how browsers work, so the need will come from people who don't have the time/will to learn

@colmtuite That said, maybe I've been lucky but I've yet to meet a designer without the ability to grasp the front-end concepts which would be required to create full fidelity output, particularly considering how much more intuitive modern browsers have made them.

@colmtuite There will always be a need for tools that create output that's higher fidelity than pen and paper, but lower than production ready front-end code. It's a real need, particularly at conception phase of a project and on smaller teams

Most humans desire the same things (acceptance, safety etc.), and respond remarkably similarly to their environment, incentives and disincentives. This is, as usual, very well articulated by @THUNKshow in his most recent video. Well worth a watch: https://t.co/WXSPdzGsFi

Another popular similar sentiment is "You can't understand everyone, some people are just crazy", which I think is also given too much airtime. You can swap out the word "please" with "understand" in the above thread and the conclusion holds.

The disciplines of Designing, Programming & Writing have a lot in common.
The best practitioners split their time roughly:
40% human behaviour/cognitive empathy
40% thinking clearly
20% learning tooling & creating output
Realising and emulating this can be game changing
