Working BackwardsBook Colin Bryar and Bill Carr

liked

I also really like working backwards I think Amazon has such a unique way of going about Building Product and they they've been so opinionated about what matters within that that process it's great to get a really detailed window into that I was always curious about how it worked and working backwards was a great way to to understand that a lot better

DescriptSoftware

recommended

a lot of the team today is using desk script or descript to edit videos they found that to be something that works so much better than prior audio and video editing Solutions and then I've always loved balsamic I've been a balsamic user for probably 10 years now and whenever I get stuck on a user experience issue I go in I create some wireframes and it always helps we used this script slash D script I also don't know how to pronounce it on this podcast so a huge recommend of that

Every entry is a verbatim quote and a link to the public post it came from. Nothing is paraphrased. If it is not on record somewhere public, it is not here.

The verdict is what they actually said: loved and liked are explicit; recommended means they told others to get it; uses means they only say they use it; read is a book on their public shelf with no verdict; mixed and disliked are kept too.

A dashed affiliate link, sponsored or their own label means the post disclosed a relationship. It is shown, never hidden.

The shading behind a date shows how dated a recommendation is for its kind of thing.

The shading behind a date shows how dated a recommendation is, for its kind of thing. Fully green is recent. It drains a quarter at a time as the post gets older, and is empty once it reads as dated.

What counts as old depends on the thing. A laptop praised four years ago has been replaced twice; a book loved twenty years ago is probably still loved. The shading is gone after about:

Stripes mean the post carries no date and the date shown is an estimate. No date at all, no shading.
