Dan Milstein is a co-founder at Hut 8 Labs, a software consulting shop in Boston. He’s worked as a programmer, architect, team lead and product manager at a variety of startups over the last 15 years.

A bunch of years back, during one of those post-yet-another-failure periods when one is thinking, “OMG there has to be a better way,” he happened upon Eric Ries’s Lessons Learned blog.  He has found the set of ideas laid out therein very much worth wrestling with, ever since.
