Nice! I was just minutes ago writing a very similar pattern with zod and GPT. Thanks for validating my approach :)

Mixpanel employee here, I actually just emailed Jitsu this morning to ask about adding Mixpanel as a destination. We're willing to work with them (or any of you!) to get the PR open. Feel free to reach out directly to [email protected]!

I believe their value lies in their e-commerce partnerships. You can effectively check out (almost) as seamlessly as a using a credit card on partner sites. I used Klarna when I bought new golf clubs. They show up right on the checkout screen. I can afford to buy them outright but it was an interest free loan for two years so it made logical sense to me.

I believe tech is still largely a meritocracy. If you think you should be paid more than someone, you should prove it with impact. If the goal of your education was compensation and your education doesn’t enable you to have more impact than a boot camp grad, then you overpaid.

Mixpanel | Austin, TX | Full-time, Onsite | Front-end & Full-stack roles | https://mixpanel.com
Mixpanel is hiring full-stack and front-end leaning software engineers for its new ATX office. This is a unique opportunity to work with top-tier talent and be compensated as such while helping us a grow our small team in Austin into something bigger.
The product engineering team creates the face of Mixpanel. We organize in small, nimble product groups (two to five engineers in close partnership with PM and design) with huge autonomy over what we build and how we build it. You will own the full stack for your product areas, from database schemas and HTTP APIs to data visualization down to the last CSS detail. A passion for product and empathy for the user are key. Our stack includes Python, Golang, and lots of JavaScript & TypeScript.
See what we’re working on: https://mixpanel.com/product-updates
PM me if you're interested, I'm the hiring manager for this role.

This is a concern with monorepo but you can still enforce the boundaries programmatically. For example you can add some simple, custom lint rules that prevent cross-boundary imports.
Another thing you can do is have your CI only check out specific directories when running tests using something like git’s sparse-checkout.

We have been using a small bit of glue code to write Web Components declaratively with Snabbdom for a couple of years at Mixpanel: https://github.com/mixpanel/panel. Happy to talk further about our experience!

Just curious, what are the reasons to be on "a bunch of metrics platforms"? Specifically, what are the various problems you were trying solve with different tools?

It's funny to me how many people are outraged at Facebook's focus on data collection and privacy "invasion" for the sake of monetization. Every company is using whatever data they can access to make as much money as possible without alienating their user base.
Facebook might be more aggressive (or perhaps just more transparent) about it. However, to think, as a rule, any company (particularly a public company) is making decisions based on ethics or your best interest is naive. It's all about revenue.

We've been using Web Components + Virtual DOM to build our web apps for the last year at Mixpanel: https://github.com/mixpanel/panel. The biggest issues have been dealing with polyfill issues (especially Shadow DOM leakage) and versioning elements (given the global namespace issue of "registerElement")

I'm pretty sure that the concept (or implementation) of virtual dom wasn't invented as a part of React. IANAL but I don't think they could patent it. Ignoring specific optimizations, a virtual dom algorithm is fairly simple.
