To jump in front of a bullet that no one wants to be struck by? As a PM, I want my eng team to be courageous and stand by their decisions rather than respecting me only once I offer my self in a sacrificial ritual.

I’d prefer I’d no one was punching anyone. Just because a person belongs to a privileged group doesn’t mean that they should be subject to any harassment.

We’re smart enough to convey our viewpoints without having to insult. It only helps with our righteous self-indignation at the expense of making inroads towards actual, positive change.

Let’s not do that. I’m incredibly appreciative of OPs transparency here. As a person who is susceptible to the same degree of stress and mental health toil, let’s not make the story about the investor but rather around the stresses of being a CEO.

Or perhaps we should take a step back and design a new set of rules that can allow Twitter and other companies to moderate without having to be responsible for the content. I feel like there’s a false dichotomy being portrayed here that’s unnecessary.

That’s what’s happening. The article mentions that exact scenario.

Having worked at an OEM and in automotive I can tell that what you’re saying is simply not true.

Where would they get the money? From cutting out the middleman, from increasing sales by offering an alternative to the terrible dealership experience (spending 1-2 hours buying a car is not ok) and from gaining the flexibility to offer alternative business models (i.e. subscription models).

Dealerships are the past. They may very well be the deadweight that will cause incumbent OEMs to sink rather than swim.

I believe this was at Snap Inc. I’ll try to find the link later.

Maybe that’s the business model? It may be cheaper to train than to retain.

You’re assuming there’s only one business model.

I agree. I has the 2017 S-Line Prestige Edition and I much prefer the interior of a Tesla Model 3.

My resume is, admittedly, overboard. I created it back when I needed to stand out. I used InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop.
