Companies don’t grow for two reasons: they don’t know what to do or they can’t execute effectively. Strong product management solves this by clarifying direction, charting measurable paths, and balancing speed with accuracy. Growth depends on aligning teams around the right goals, measuring progress, and sequencing work deliberately—not just shipping faster.

When new features are rolled out, testing remains the biggest bottleneck. n Typically, the workflow goes something like this: build a feature, create a PR, push to CI, skim through some screenshots, and hope nothing breaks in production when the user hits. n Now, don’t get me wrong, shipping new features quickly is great, but … Read more

We analyzed 170+ million residential proxy IPs over a 90-day period (86M IPv4, 87M IPv6) and discovered two patterns that explain why fraud detection is so hard: 46% of residential proxy IPs appear across multiple provider networks simultaneously (70% for IPv4, 22% for IPv6). The same compromised infrastructure, infected routers, malware-laden devices, bandwidth-sharing apps, is accessible … Read more

Engineering teams are shipping more code than ever, driven by distributed systems and AI-assisted development. Defect prevention and resolution, however, still operate as manual, reactive work. This creates a structural imbalance: output scales, but reliability and confidence do not.

Shem Albert Photo courtesy of Seyond Machines still struggle to see. Autonomous vehicles miscalculate distances. Delivery robots stumble on curbs. Industrial sensors fail when the weather turns harsh. Seyond addressed this gap by constructing a full spectrum of LiDAR sensors spanning from 0.01 meters to 500 meters, giving robots the visual acuity needed to operate … Read more

Long before “engineering” became a formal career path, it was already part of Will Jiang’s daily life. Growing up in China, Jiang was the student teacher whom a classmate turned to when a laptop froze minutes before class. By high school, he was maintaining his school’s network infrastructure by diagnosing connectivity issues, keeping systems online, … Read more

Machine learning models often perform well during experimentation. Offline metrics improve, prototypes demonstrate potential, and early validation builds confidence across teams. In controlled environments, systems behave predictably and progress feels steady. The transition to production introduces a different set of pressures. Training jobs fail intermittently. Features arrive outside expected time windows. Historical data changes without … Read more

We got new model releases from xAI and Anthropic last week, and I wanted to give my quick impressions to help you know if/when you should care. This is just after a half day of testing, so my impressions may change, but… we’re usually locked in on the vibe pretty quickly. By the way, even if … Read more

This article argues that Substack is structurally designed to prevent guru-style power concentration. By aligning incentives around paid subscriptions instead of advertising, enabling peer-driven discovery, prioritizing ownership and exit rights, and building around long-form, trust-based relationships, Substack creates a distributed “garden” ecosystem. In an era where AI can mass-produce authoritative content, platforms that reward originality, … Read more

When Competition Becomes Clarity I’ve attended dozens of tech festivals. Most follow a familiar rhythm: morning keynotes, afternoon workshops, evening networking with samosas.
