Teams that do regular debriefs (meetings focused only on learning from past team performance) improve team performance by up to 25%, but they are often infrequent, conducted only after things go wrong or big projects end.

Worth noting that 1870 was close to peak; a time where work weeks were 70hrs and it was common to see children in factories.
By comparison, 14th century casual laborers worked about 1400 hours and 15th century farmer/miner worked about 1900.

Capitalism has so permeated our existence that "average hours worked" has been consistently declining for decades.

As well as pressure from the labour movement, reduced work hours gained popularity during the great depression because it meant there was more work to go around.

NEW: I’m not sure people fully appreciate how dire the US life expectancy / mortality situation has got.
My column: enterprise-sharing.ft.com/redeem/75e5e3d…
And some utterly damning charts.
1) at *every* point on the income distribution, Americans live shorter lives than the English.

kind of can't believe this isn't table stakes by now, or built into the platform. I remember @aaryte spending a bunch of time making this work on Gmail Chat, circa 2006.
A li’l quality-of-life update:
Before, you had to be really precise with your cursor so menus wouldn’t disappear on you. Should feel much more polished now 🫡

One of the most common mistakes even experienced managers make is assigning tasks, rather than assigning accountabilities with tasks included. I’ve made this mistake many times. Thread >>

Start-up life = hard won insights. Here are my top 10 for this year.
1. Doing well at a start-up is not simply about skill, it is about mentality.
A start-up mentality values action over correctness, results over process. It suits those that value autonomy over clarity.

California has had a best-case-scenario fall season.
Not only did we escape having a severe fire season, but we've had a huge start to the wet season, with the state snowpack over 200% of normal.

👇My framework for what makes a great product manager. I think this works for about 70% of companies but may look a bit different depending on your industry, business model and size. Is there anything you would add or remove?

Hopefully not calling it too early, but can we pause for a moment to acknowledge that we got off fairly lightly with the California fire season this year.
300k acres burnt, or less than ⅕ the 5 year average. And no days in SF where the sun didn't come up.

@natfriedman Have seen great things get built with and without the intensity you're describing (and I agree it can feel incredible).
The challenge is separating the cases where it happens for the sake of *looking like* something great is happening. Greatness and cargo cults look so similar.

We need more than just ideas of things we wish to avoid.
We need more than a moral mission or even the search of truth.
We also need an aesthetic longing that calls us: a sense of beauty, of good taste, of inspiration, of creativity.

We called this hybrid rendering in 2011. patents.google.com/patent/US82451…
When you visit a site with Universal Rendering, at first it behaves exactly like a server-side rendered app.
The server processes the request, and sends the rendered page back to you.
But here is where it's different.
