About jedberg

Former CEO of DBOS. We make Transact, an open source library to build reliable and durable by default applications. https://github.com/dbos-inc/

I used to run reddit.com's servers, then I ran Site Reliability at Netflix (and invented Chaos Engineering), then I worked on making Alexa faster and smarter, and then I helped build a GPU cloud.

I enjoy technology, hanging out with my daughter and son, advising and investing in startups, and some other stuff.

You can reach me at {anything}@jedberg.net, and also send me any great investment leads there!

Or you can book at meeting with me (but please tell me why in meeting request!): https://calendly.com/dbos-ceo/30min

    But a monorepo wouldn't make any of that easier. You have to make the change to service A and B, and then test both and deploy both. You haven't saved any time or effort in a monor…

    While you are technically correct (the best kind of correct), I would challenge you to find an organization that is doing the monorepo/microservice combo correctly. And what I mean…

    Many professional cooks who are building new kitchens are doing it with induction. Induction gives you even more precise control, especially since they can put more sensors on the …

    I believe that the solution to the coordination problem is good monorepo tooling (like the OP) plus AI to understand the whole codebase and help the engineers understand how their …

    I don't. I need to keep winning until I can't to keep the boy in his place. He is getting closer every time. I know my day is soon to end, and a new house champion will reign.

    Of course, that’s how all open source companies work. Everything I said applies to what you said.

    I'm sorry this page needs to exist, it's partly my fault. I created the first "large scale" SPF record (for eBay and PayPal), and agreed that this was the best way to do it. I gues…

    I've worked at a DevTools company and been the CEO of one too. Here's my thoughts: I agree that they need to be open source. But that makes it really hard to make a successful busi…

    Have you looked at their latest product? You describe your app in a text box and the AI builds it, with all the enterprise goodies like RBAC baked in.

    Yes it is, because of the way they have structured the program. This is not like a car lease. With a car lease, the total of payments plus residual is more than the cash purchase p…

    Fun story. Way back in 2008, I tried to make it exactly that. I worked on figuring a way to inject the reddit comments onto any page. Sadly at the time the JS ecosystem just wasn't…

    Except in this case you're not paying any extra. In fact it's cheaper to lease and then own an iPhone with this program because of the time value of money. It's an interest free lo…
