Though the only reason we are here is because senators, including some in that room, voted to confirm him despite his anti-science record and his admission that a worm ate part of his brain. My anger at that is limitless.

they want to specifically kill some (many) of us because they think america doesn’t have enough future resources for all. it’s all the making of FAIR, those who are now part of the Project 2025

it’s here in the very first paragraph: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federat...

it was retitled that in 1981, so the one #1 in ‘77 was STAR WARS and he’s right and they’re not!

indeed, it’s all in good old Godhardt's Law: "When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure"

exactly. they’re like “personas” were supposed to be: a tool to keep the attention on the right place—users.

sorry, i did not mean it to be about the framework.

it’s always about the team. a great team with good guardrails and good objectives will do wonders with prob any framework, and a misguided team with short-term, tactical minds will wreck it even with a good one.

it’s not the framework.

yes, i see your point, and it’s a valid one. and i also think that if everyone make it their job to have a better product, from research to qa, it is much less probable that these mistakes get to the light, and also more probable that the product/service is the best it can be.

in my experience, teams that end up effectively applying any sort of framework like these also have a solid or evolving set of product values that support a good interpretation of the results in context—specifically not letting it go rotten by the metric becoming the goal.

it also—like most measurable frameworks—might backfire by putting attention on the metric, while taking it from the user. not for nothing we have heaps of products with toxic addictiveness (Engagement), a pervasive focus on design systems and cute UI (Happiness)…

so they give you a sense of righteousness only because some users align with your offer but usually hinders you from knowing more on how your offer could better align to to your user needs

now talking seriously, the issues i found is that these methods measure the experience your current users get from your offer (product/service), but they hide the delta between your offer and the user needs
