No, I really try to not be a bad example. If the pre-read is sent 24 hours in advance, I will. If the pre-read is sent like, I don't know, one hour in advance, I'm not gonna be able to do that, right?

I think debate is incredibly important. And so one of the things, but I also don't know if talk is cheap. So I think those are two different concepts. One of the things that I really loved about the culture of Facebook when I was there can be captured by strong opinions loosely held.

One of the reasons why we were successful with the products is that we were really leaving that value, that culture. It really means two things. One is that you have to have a point of view. And to get to a point of view that you feel conviction about, you're going to have to go deep into whatever topic you're having this point of view about, right? You're going to have to do your homework.

You're going to have to spend enough time to develop expertise in that topic to have a strong point of view. And you have to share that point of view, and people will debate a lot. I was going to say the crap out of it, but that's how you get to a better outcome. And the second part of that, you should not be stuck with your strong point of view, right?

You should be open to new information as it comes in. And not just open to new information, you should go seek out new information because you know that it makes your decision better. And so that's what this culture about the importance of not being right, but it's the importance of making the right decisions. That's one thing. You talked about talk is cheap, and there I really agree with you.

I disagree with the philosophy that talk is cheap. Just because talk doesn't cost us any code doesn't mean that we need to do more of it. I think, like you said, talking costs us time, and that is the time that you can be spending progressing towards your North Star, and your teams could be executing during that time. Any product leaders who love philosophizing, for me, it's a big red flag.
