Product R&D engineer here. I have a product manager who only knows how to give one piece of feedback: make it smaller and slimmer. What requirement is driving this? Can't say. What user need are we trying to address? No idea. But smaller=better for some reason.

Can't you just kill him? You know, for the greater good?

A slurry can be made very, very thin.

"Fun" little tidbit, the Mexican cartels call the guy who reduces bodies to a slurry "un pozolero" (a soup-maker) when they need to get rid of a body. Actual Pozole is quite delicious though.

One thing people who don't build products tend to imagine is that PMs are constantly doing market research, data analysis, focus groups, etc.

That may be true at some companies, but IME they can be clueless beyond belief because their real job is to be salespeople. They sell dreams to executives. Whether those will actually sell is a much lower concern.

I bet that once upon a time, this was standard operating procedure.

Have you considered arranging an office white water rafting trip or perhaps cave diving, where a terrible misfortune may befall this person?

Thinner until I can shave with this thing.

At least they'd be adding a function to a phone for once.

You're gonna have to hone it to keep its edge. Wonder if it'll come with vendor locked honing stones

[–] Honytawk@feddit.nl 3 points 2 days ago

Ask them why then.

Fuck that person. They don't need to exist.
