@alextoth.bsky.social When I went to the park to write I bought a coffee and found a bench in the sun. The weather was perfect. I was ready. Then nothing happened. Zilch.
@alextoth.bsky.social I sat there blocked because I had no specific problem to solve. And realised I could not write because I had no questions to answer!
It is hard to speak when you are not answering a real need.
@alextoth.bsky.social This is exactly how Systems Engineering works. You cannot just start developing a product before you define what it is. You need prompts from your stakeholders to ensure you solve a real problem.
@alextoth.bsky.social Their real needs are often hidden. You must ask probing questions to uncover them. This is what we call ๐ก๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐ ๐๐น๐ถ๐ฐ๐ถ๐๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป.
