  @Latterdaytruth The video clip of the TV show Cheers where Rebecca is asking why more men can’t bring flowers and is misheard as Mormons: back in the early days of of AOL I found the clip and edited it so instead of saying “I wish someone would send me some damn roses” it says “I wish someone would send me some some roses” so I could share it with my in-laws who wouldn’t have appreciated the “damn” Now my version is the most common one you can find on the Internet.

  @ChrisMizTV @CFBDirect Man, i’ve been just playing offline while watching movies and whatever because i don’t dare risk my Dynasty while watching, but it is just sad. The entire mode is slow and clunky. I feel like i’m on AOL in 1996.

  There's a line in The Lean Startup that stung when I read it last week: "learning" is the oldest excuse in the book for a failure of execution. Eric Ries tells the story of IMVU's first product. His team spent six months building an instant-messaging add-on, based on a genuinely smart-sounding strategy: piggyback on existing IM networks (AOL, Yahoo!, MSN), ride their network effects, spread virally through people's existing friend lists. Whiteboard-brilliant. They launched. Nobody used it. When they finally sat real customers down in front of the product, every assumption fell apart. Customers weren't scared of learning new software - the average teenager ran eight IM clients at once. They didn't want to chat with existing friends through avatars - they wanted to meet strangers. The "obvious" barrier the whole strategy was built around wasn't a barrier at all. Ries's point isn't "test more." It's sharper than that: in a startup, any effort that doesn't produce evidence about what customers actually want is waste - no matter how well it's executed. He calls the real version of this validated learning, to separate it from the after-the-fact story you tell yourself when something doesn't work. I'm sitting in a smaller version of that exact test right now with Owoye. One of the assumptions baked into the product is that WhatsApp and IG sellers want their invoices auto-matched to incoming payments. It sounds obviously useful from where I sit. But that's precisely the position IMVU's team was in - certain, and wrong, about what would remove friction for their customer. So this week will not be spent refining the feature. It will be spent in conversations with actual sellers, watching how they track who's paid right now - screenshots, memory, WhatsApp scrollback - before deciding whether "auto-match" solves their problem or just mine. The uncomfortable question worth asking about your own product this week: is the thing you're building solving a problem your customer has, or a problem you have with how your customer works?

  a researcher just showed CSS alone can escape the boundaries of an email and mess with the webmail interface itself across Outlook, Gmail, Fastmail, Proton, Yahoo, AOL: fake login screens, stolen tokens, hijacked UI actions, even manipulated AI assistants that read your inbox. no JS required
