Product-market fit is best measured by observing how customers react to your product. Better yet, observe them interact with your product. You know you’ve achieved product-market fit when the customers intuitively understand what need the product fills for them, and they have no trouble using it, in fact they enjoy using it… in fact they start telling their friends about it, maybe even telling the world about it on Twitter or other places. That’s how you know if you’ve got product-market fit.

Soleio giving an interview to First Round Review. Makes me think of No Man’s Sky, this game where everyone has a different starting universe. Interesting comments altogether.

Would you kill the fat man?
Dr Costa and his colleagues interviewed 317 people, all of whom spoke two languages—mostly English plus one of Spanish, Korean or French. Half of each group were randomly assigned the dilemma in their native tongue. The other half answered the problem in their second language. When asked in their native language, only 20% of subjects said they would push the fat man. When asked in the foreign language, the proportion jumped to 33%.
Language as a factor of utilitarianist problems.

Christensen focuses on the principle that we “hire” certain products and services to solve our problems. That’s a great perspective to define the utility value of a digital product: Look for the same qualities in that product that you’d look for in a human being doing the same job.
At first (but only at first), think of your app as what utility value it offers to peeps, not UX.

Infinite scroll ain't so bad
Some people think that infinite scroll is of bad taste. Here are the main reasons:
1. Users will lose the page length orientation – the browser scrollbar become useless. 2. There’s no ability to jump to the end of the list. 3. Your users will not be able to get back to the same in-page position in 1 click. 4. There’s no visible footer until your users come to the end of the list/content. 5. Slow Experience – You are using a lot of browser memory as the page scrolls down. 6. If you switch away from the page by following a link there’s no way of getting back to where you left off. 7. Lack of sense of completion- no closure for users. 8. There’s no SEO opportunities for content located below the first scroll. 9. You lose the ability to bookmark a dedicated point of interest. 10. Distraction – The fear of missing out on data or other options will deter your users from completing an action.
I think that a good compromise is hybrid infinite scrolling. As in you scroll, until a certain point where the website asks you to “click to load more”. This is the paradigm that we will be using for Columize.
It denies 1. since users will still have a strong sense of where they are.
It requires slightly more effort (but nothing extraordinarily unbearable) for 2.
It does not solve 3. but I don’t think it’s that big a matter.
It solves 4. and 5.
It solves 6. if you open in a new tab.
7. might actually be a good thing.
Agreed for 8.
9. depends on the type of service.
10. I think it’s actually the opposite (and it also depends on the service).
