Why do product managers make bad decisions

Shipped this week

Everything that I've shipped (aka created) since the last edition.

Hey there!

I apologize for not sending a newsletter sooner.

Now, for some exciting updates.

I've been hard at work rethinking how I want to publish newsletters, and here's what's coming your way:

1. A bi-weekly newsletter with in-depth guides.

Plus, I traveled. A lot.

1. A 1-week road-tripping-full-of-adventure friends trip in Barcelona, San Sebastian, Valencia and the unforgettable Tomatina festival.
2. A short trip to Rome with my mother, where we did as the Romans do.
