Why didn’t you offer any real world usage numbers to illustrate your point? I found this unhelpful.

How is that a weird reply? I literally started the sentence with "I".

I would subscribe to Max if they had a coding agent interface on web like OpenAI's Codex, but without a novel implementation like that the monthly plan doesn't make sense since you can just use API, OpenRouter, etc.

Yea crazy how long it took. Zen browser users have been waiting for them to ship this so it can be used in Zen. Of course they announce this the day I switch to Orion.

Sure, but because of fintech not as many need to get created. Fintech has made it relatively easy for new entrants to work with partner banks through BaaS platforms.

I guess I never really thought about it, but yea a lot of bangers on that list

Wow what a great set of movies too

Same. I can’t believe this is still a thing.

This makes me sad because not only did I get my current job through Hired, but I’ve also recruited several great software engineers through the platform.

Everything is a series of battles and campaigns. If the overall war is a mediocre success, you still have plenty to learn from if you're digging into those.

As a software engineering leader I can appreciate the huge amount of work it took you all to get here. It may not be super flashy because you had to start from scratch and get to feature parity with existing platforms, but IMHO Bluesky has the best app and I'm excited about all of the stuff you will add in the future. I'm rooting for you!

I think so. Sure, platforms like Threads have the raw numbers and network effects, but Bluesky has an authentic community, a solid team (Dan Abramov from the React team joining was a surprise), and they are making the right product tradeoffs. I can definitely see them “coming out on top” as the spiritual successor to Twitter in a few years.

Do you have any friends that can go through a mock interview with you? There are also mentorship platforms that offer this as a service. I am biased since I have been on the mentor side of this, but I think they are well worth the money.

Personally I'd blame HR. It's their job to fully think these things through and make sure they are being executed on in a coherent fashion.
