I read the Mom test a long time ago, and I've never read Don't make me think. I'm not saying they are bad books but I don't know if they are foundational to PostHog. They will also be less relevant to anyone not doing engineering.

"Don't Make Me Think" might be too UXy.
"The Mom Test" I stand by strongly – talking with users in an effective way is not obvious, and this one condenses the principles well. Short and sweet.
(tbh I know we also list "Principles" in "Things that influenced us", but I've never read Ray Dalio and remain an unprincipled brute)
