Ask the investor to not get paid on their management fees. They’re working for their equity too right?

It’s absolutely ridiculous and unprofessional.

You can lookup what company owns the phone number.

Facebooks internal auditing of employee data access is world class. Not sure about what it was in 2010.

And your remark about performance metrics is irrelevant to the question of, who accessed this sensitive company data?

I've just started with tRPC and for internal dashboards, there's definitely no going back.

The speed of development is unmatched. Not having to do any codegen is mind blowing.

Wow, you’ve got some stories from this company. This could make for a really entertaining blog!

You have people that care for you and will miss you. Don’t forget that.

I thought it was just me. LinkedIn, emails, calls from recruiters. It’s extremely aggressive.

Wow, I never thought of / heard anyone explain equity as a liability to pay to shareholders. It’s brilliant!

What’s wrong with that? Credit cards for businesses can be very low risk with the right KYC and underwriting controls.

Consider that startups are most often sitting on mountains of cash.

Also, having founders personally guarantee a credit card by putting up a house as collateral is not ideal for anyone.

Mercury is great! I bank with them.

But I'm not worried about Mercury, I'm worried about their partner bank.

Anyone know if Evolve is in a similar situation?

Banks don't understand startups. Startups have no history and just appear out of thin air with millions of dollars in their bank account. And then they proceed to burn tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars month on month until they die, or get flooded with more millions.

That's some weird stuff!!

A bank that understands this, knows it's not fraudulent, and makes it easy to withdraw, deposit, get credit cards, give loans/venture debt, has a competitive advantage in this niche but highly lucrative sector—given they can operate with the right risk controls.

What’s your budget for this research?

Make an eslint rule to warn when using any. They should prefer unknown over any

I’m recruiting engineers in LATAM right now.

Typical rates are $5-7k/month. So your assessment is definitely within range.

Now that we have this bot to answer questions for us, I think we can all go home!

“Time to iterate” is measuring how quickly you can get an idea, build it in code, deploy it to your customer, and get feedback.

If Rust is helping you make prototypes and iterate quickly, I’d love to hear how you’re using the language.

That’s an interesting comment. I chose Node not because I love it, but it’s the easiest to hire for as a startup.

I hate configuring typescript and having to deal with bundlers, package.json, esbuild, etc.

But Deno and Bun are just around the corner. What we need is to get rid of this a la carte mentality around tooling and just give everyone Typescript, batteries included, and make it fast.

Then Node really isn’t that bad anymore.

Marqeta’s documentation is really good for describing highly complex payment topics.

Additionally the way they structured their API responses is brilliant. The API response data structures are deeply nested which means you have to perform less API calls to get related data (which often occurs with payments data).

The keep (pun) should be used more skillfully than this.

Teleport looks like the best solution for the job. Thanks!

I absolutely hate it when people touch my screen. I can never imagine putting my fingers on my screen over using my mouse / keyboard

2/5 engineers. SOC 2 compliance forces us to use automation and peer reviewed actions as much as possible, which may slow you down in the short term, but improves reliability and security in the long run.

Go travel for a few months. Some place you don’t know the language. Change your environment to something different than what you’re used to!

It may not immediately reveal what the best option is. But you won’t regret traveling, and this sounds like the perfect time to do it.

What are your tips?

I don’t want to diminish the work the author has done. For a nice hobby project, sure hack away!

But if you are looking to give this to the world, the lack of planning and emphasis on testing is less than ideal.

It wouldn’t hurt to play with some editors and write a spec so data structures and algorithms can be planned appropriately. After all, there are tons of great examples to get inspiration from!

I do not understand how the story ended.

And that was a very odd story… he is an edgy guy.

They know this is a problem, so they’re hiring contractors to write code and label it to teach the AI.

Has this ever backfired?

This sounds like an extremely fun job (or jobs?), how can I get it?
