I went to a meetup to listen to the 2nd speaker, but I have to survive the 1st speaker first. Why?! This guy has no idea what he speaks about, not simply that he is not an expert, but his talk does not have any message, no insights, its just a series of sentences. 😡🥱🤬😤

I'm really behind Macklemore and Ed Sheeran. Punishing them for publicly sharing their opinion is a sad signal about the people in power, the owners of the stadiums. I'm writing about this as "mass" is likely the best way to stand up for them.

I learned a lot through successes and great experiences, but the biggest #learnings were from failures. I loved working at GitLab, experienced and learned a ton from successes, but even there, the biggest learning was after I left and reflected on my work. I found something I did not do. #humble

if you buy pastries, each piece is packaged in a separate plastic bag, and their face seemed rather confused when we asked them to package all the salty pastries together

there is central communication to drink a lot because of the heat, but it's almost impossible to refill a water bottle on the streets;

This is my first time in #Japan, and I'm surprised by a few seeming contradictions. It's clearly a less individualistic society than western societies are, still they seem to be doing worse in climate change related policies than the EU. See the thread 🧵 for specifics.

The world is full of #unmaintainable #architectures. We don't have to worry about AI, their processors will melt. There will be plenty of jobs in #DevOps and #operations as these solutions run on tribal knowledge. Save our jobs! Build more crap!

"Szabolcs Panyi, one of the country’s most prominent investigative journalists, also urged people to treat Sunday’s revelations with caution. Weeks earlier, he and other journalists had been told by sources... of a “Russia-backed false flag attack in Serbia targeting the gas pipeline to Hungary”."

The #elections will be in a week, and I've never been similarly excited and nervous about home #politics. Despite all the polls showing great advantage for the #TISZA party, fighting an authoritarian ruler can never be taken for granted. #Hungary 🤞

Besides GenAI, a less visible, but more impactful transformation is happening these days: climate change. Based on my experiences with adapting to GenAI, I'm convinced that climate change will bring unprecedented social unrest and political instability as our way to adaptation in the next 50 years.

Viktor Nagy @nagyv.bsky.social · 15/02/2026

I'm convinced that I have no idea of the impact GenAI will have in our jobs. Last week, I shipped roughly two weeks of engineering work in two days to production. To succeed, I needed my engineering and product backgrounds alike. How will even my reports transition to a similar approach to work?

Iteration is likely the hardest part of product management, it's about delivering value quickly, consistently and on the long run.

If you end up in #Oxford not knowing it, check out at least the Blackwell bookshop. I've spent ~2 hours there, and hardly left its basement level. #books

You still don't get algorithms optimized for consumption, and thus leading to increasingly biased opinions. Instead, you can easily look for the same topics across news sites for a more thorough overview.

Viktor Nagy @nagyv.bsky.social · 11/01/2025

With #meta removal of #fact-checking, I was thinking about the core issue. The problem is that people read opinions as facts, even worse. We read opinion websites ( #facebook, #bsky) and treat them as facts. I love reading sci-fi, but I never consider them as facts. Where do people go sideways?

I recently discovered what I consider the most impactful book on #strategy I've read to date: "Playing to Win: How Strategy Really Works" by A.G. Lafley and Roger L. Martin. I can recommend it to everyone! It's "Shorten Your Odds" section might be a worthwhile read on its own too. #productmanagement

You just argued against yourself, saying that famines are the state of nature (as they are possible today as well, for example if fertilizers are not allowed).

Viktor Nagy @nagyv.bsky.social · 05/01/2025

Famine was part of human history until very recently. ourworldindata.org/famines A few big discoveries, like the fertiliser in agriculture increased yields to unprecedented levels, and resulted in a massive decrease in famine.

Famines

In many parts of the world famines have been common in the past. What causes famines? How can famines be averted?

Viktor Nagy @nagyv.bsky.social · 05/01/2025

Famine is the state of nature for homo sapiens, not poverty. There is more and more evidence that this made us greedy. Poverty is a cultural phenomenon as shown by Sweden's XXth century. They moved from being one of the least egalitarian state to one of the most egalitarian. Culture can be changed.

I went to a #schwimmbad in #Wien. It was nice and clean, but still behind the bath culture of Iceland. I'm always puzzled how poorly cultures learn from each other even in today's globalised world. Do you have any favourite countries for bathing culture?

I love the discussion in www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uvem... by Christian Idiodi and @martycagan.bsky.social about successful #productmanagement and #humility. It matches my own understanding of our job perfectly, and it's in stark contrast with how everyone in the industry tries to sell themselves.

I just can't understand how can cookie approval popups provide value to the user. Wouldn't there be more value in removing them and offering less customized ads?
