THE WEEKLY REVIEW

One situation.
One decision.
One open question.

Five-minute examinations of the assumptions, constraints, and choices that allow product-development problems to become normal.

FIVE MINUTES · PUBLISHED PERIODICALLY

The question is the point.

Each review begins with a situation drawn from product development or adapted from recurring patterns in public inspection records. It does not prescribe a solution. It reconstructs what the system may have allowed—and leaves one question for the reader to carry back into the work.
