  @oelma__ All. But, I never had an AOL address myself, but I've sent email to those that did. My earliest email address was via a BBS that was co-sysop of.

  We have been doing things on the internet since back when the internet first became a thing. We operated telnet systems for several years out of our Spare bedroom. Long before AOL even. It takes a special type of fool to think someone in Africa is going to help us grow.

  @citizentvkenya Sorry to say but Prof has gone AOL for too long genuinely focusing on Kisumu County which is full of insecurity though. I have no personal problem with Prof but Vision 2060 can only be real if we do the basics right.

  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?

  @Wild_Nefari @Hulex My only reason for discord usage is for streaming & community build it has far better tools for that. TG I use it for virtually anything. But damn I do miss the days of MIRC or AOL cause when you send a file it doesn’t matter how big it was.
