Requires every tile to answer a stated question, since tiles without one become decoration.

Running it, start to finish
- Write the questions before choosing any metric.
- Remove every tile with no consequent action.
- Assign an owner and a way to detect silent breakage.
What you get back
The output this produces, every time.
- Requires a stated question and a consequent action for every tile.
- Establishes one primary number, rather than a grid of equally-weighted tiles.
- Shows normal ranges, so ordinary fluctuation does not trigger investigations.
Getting better results
Where this usually goes wrong, and how to avoid it.
- Convert watch-metrics into alerts. Nobody watches a dashboard continuously. A threshold that matters needs an alert, not a tile.
- Put freshness on the tile. Mixing real-time and batch data without labelling it produces decisions made on figures assumed to be current.
- Detect breakage. A tile showing stale data after a pipeline change is worse than a blank one, because it is still trusted.

Segmentation Analysis
Produces segments that are actionable and stable, since statistically clean but unusable is the standard failure.

A/B Test Design and Reading
