So PMs aren’t safe because you need to…understand customer pain points?

Buddy, that skill is what PMs that are any good at their job spent a lifetime perfecting.

Rather, PMs aren’t safe as managers could just ask the agent to find the problem worth solving and then go solve it. But that takes us to a rather different world.

First time hearing of number of trees as a measue in forestry. In scandinavia we use hectars (100x100m). There’s also several different m3 measurements (with and without bark), that is used along with timber quality.

Finland has trees in billions. Still google should follow the laws and hand in the right permits.

Is there some way to jailbreak your tv and run som open source os on it? Or something like that?

Not exactly sure what I’m after, but the problem is acute and widely prevalent, so there has to be some solution.

My guess is just that they are quite serious about user testing the manuals. 3-4 iterations and you're good to go. Many companies would never imagine that you could test manuals.

If everything considered 'user hostile' on this forum actually was, the world economy would look very different. People love going to IKEA.
