Get five people talking about your product - iterative feedback with Ben Vinegar
If you ship features and never hear what users actually said, this episode is for you. Kent talks with Ben Vinegar - co-founder of Modem, formerly founding engineer and VPE at Sentry - about aggregating feedback, eliminating adoption barriers, and keeping human judgment in the loop as AI speeds up shipping. They cover FreshBooks-era product engineering, Modem's approach to capturing feedback across Slack, Discord, GitHub, and support tools, and why five real conversations beat a median LLM opinion. 00:00 - Meet Ben Vinegar 01:29 - Career startup guy 03:48 - What Modem is for 06:59 - Building products for builders 12:58 - Aggregating feedback at scale 15:26 - FreshBooks and early product loops 21:34 - Onboarding and getting users unstuck 25:06 - Emerging technology at Sentry 27:59 - Buy a laundromat - go deep on users 33:56 - Support culture and intentionality 39:35 - Human connection in the feedback loop 42:27 - Hunk and accelerating taste with AI 45:12 - Human judgment vs median products 49:43 - Homework: five people talking Ben Vinegar calls himself a career startup guy - early at FreshBooks, Disqus, and Sentry (first five people through ~400 employees), then head of product engineering, VPE, and VP of emerging technology. He founded Modem (modem.dev) to give product engineers faster access to what users are saying so they can iterate. The through-line is closed-loop feedback. Successful products Ben has worked on followed make-a-change, get-it-in-front-of-users, adjust, repeat. Modem aggregates signals from Slack Connect, Discord, GitHub issues, Intercom, Zendesk, and similar channels so teams are not hunting screenshots in five tools. They talk adoption barriers, FreshBooks' support culture, and why human judgment still differentiates when agents can ship median products. Ben's Hunk terminal diff tool story shows taste accelerating with AI: he built what he needed as a "norm core" Mac user who wanted agents running while he closed the laptop. Extreme produc

A new way to replace carbon with nitrogen atoms could lead to better medicines
When drugmakers want to improve on compounds they have already created, they can replace a carbon atom with a nitrogen atom. While effective, the techniques they use to perform this chemical swap, known as skeletal editing, have some downsides. For example, older approaches often require harsh chemicals or only work on specific types of molecules.
