Is the long-term pricing model seat/usage based? Value based? Consider how much you want/need to be charging customers in 3-5 years time and work backwards from there. Be open with…

This thread on Elixir Forum is a good read if you are considering building agents with Elixir. Jido's author weighs in also. https://elixirforum.com/t/is-anyone-working-on-ai-agent…

According to Wikipedia[1] it looks like the rebranding effort from Swagger -> OpenAPI was in November 2015, but the OpenAPI Specification was only officially renamed on 1st January…

Thanks Ryan, I'd definitely be keen to see what insights you glean from that data, and I am also interested to hear which other YC startups hire global-remotely as I'll add them to…

Stock buybacks are (generally) done by companies when they think their stock is undervalued. Stock buybacks destroy the quantity of shares that are bought by the company. E.g., if …

Would you please share more details about your mental model for working with Lambda?

OP here. I've recently departed Amazon to pursue building my own ideas. I decided to share some of my learnings as I go via substack - here's my first article :) I am very keen to …
