If I may ask: what university was this? Asking as I am the CTO of a YC startup and we are hiring junior engineers in Berlin!

Kombo (YC S22) | €70K - €90K EUR + Equity | Full-Time | Berlin, Germany | ONSITE Kombo builds a unified API for HR, payroll and recruiting systems. We're working with companies of all sizes - from Fortune 500 companies down to early stage startups - to help them integrate dozens of software vendors within a few days instead of months.

Reasons you might want to work at Kombo - Modern, yet robust tech stack (TypeScript, Prisma, tRPC, PostgreSQL, Docker, Kubernetes)

- Extremely high bar for talent - backgrounds from Oxford, Harvard, TUM, CODE; 50% of employees are ex-founders

- Grew from 4 to 14 people within a year, and looking to 2.5x next year as well

- Early enough to make a significant contribution and have the 'early stage' startup' feeling; late enough to be significantly derisked (we are already profitable)

- Strong onsite culture in hip Berlin office

- Competitive salaries and equity compensation

We're looking for senior engineers to join us in various positions and are actively hiring! :) We are into radical candor, shipping code fast and sometimes being a bit crazy. Feel free to reach out to me at [email protected] or apply at https://www.workatastartup.com/companies/kombo (mention Hacker News) if this sounds interesting!

Cool stuff and congrats on the Show HN! Out of curiosity, at what point do you see teams usually adopting something like langfuse? In regular development, you sometimes even have test-driven development - I imagine this doesn't really apply for LLMs. Do you see this changing over time as the process of building LLM apps becomes more mature?

A counter-example: https://daml.com/

Daml is essentially a smart-contract language using Haskell syntax with built-in primitives for privacy & authorization (e.g., so you don't have to either make your whole ledger public or private)

Worth checking out if you're into DLT & PLs! :)

Disclaimer: I work for the company developing this.

I don't have anything substantial to add to the discussion beyond another data point: I also relate to the feeling of wanting to be 'productive' most of the time and not really enjoying pure leisure time. I recently spent 2 weeks working remotely from a nice location in Italy and definitely would've enjoyed the time less if I couldn't have also worked from there. I also enjoy hobbies/free-time less when I believe it ultimately doesn't lead myself to becoming the person I want to be.

On the one hand, I think this is only natural if you are an ambitious person (this desire is imho exactly one of the things that allow a person to achieve ambitious feats); on the other hand, I am definitely struggling with finding enjoyable, non-work activities that recharge me.
