And much like the other lectures, here are 24 quotes from Alex's lecture worth remembering: https://medium.com/how-to-start-a-startup/24-quotes-from-ale...
One reason why I think this lecture probably hasn't generated as many comments/upvotes is because there may have been too many topics put into just 1 lecture. I think it may have been more effective if the content was split out into maybe 2 or 3 separate lectures that went into a bit more depth like.. -Building a product (covering the MVP, the decision process around what features are most important and what's not, etc) - Customer Development/talking to users (the environment to interview them, types of questions to ask them, types not to ask,etc) - Growth (different types of growth, what Homejoy focused on at each stage, potential challenges they went through etc)
I recognize that since it's a Stanford course, they are probably capped with the amount of time they have during the semester as well.

You can find more from Sam Altman and the rest of the lectures there as well.
