- Disqualify fastThe goal of early validation isn't to prove an idea right. It's to find the cheapest way to prove it wrong.
- Detection time is the first metricYou can't fix what you haven't noticed. Most reliability work starts with shortening the gap between broken and known.
- A first thought. Probably wrong somewhere.
- Taking shape. I’d defend most of it.
- Settled. I keep coming back to it.
