--
-- A product improvement engine must measure two things:
--
-- 1. Is your product built?
-- 2. Do you have product-market fit?
--
-- Let's use an analogy: building a startup is like jumping off a clif and
-- assembling a plane on the way down. As we approach the ground at terminal
-- velocity, only two questions are relevant: Is the plane built? Does it fly?
-- Nothing else matters.
--
-- So, Pie is a program that records answers to these two things and then
-- reports on whether we are making the correct progress.
--
-- This is inspired by a few things:
--
-- - YC's Startup School has a build sprint questionnaire
-- - Sam Altman's startup playbook: "You want to build a 'product improvement
-- engine' in your company."
-- - Sean Ellis' question: "How would you feel if you could no longer use this
-- product? (a) Very disappointed, (b) somewhat disappointed, (c) not
-- disappointed" and then measure the percentage who answer (a).
