That was one of the most defining moments of my career. We crossed paths a few weeks ago in San Francisco, I wish I had spent more time chatting with him that day. Bob was an amazing person and one of the best programmers I have ever met. He will be missed.

Early in 2013, I had just joined @Square, working out of @jessewilson ’s basement in our “Canadian office” when @crazybob called asking if we wanted to help with this prototype he was starting to build. That was the beginning of the Cash App! 1/2

@VinayKuruvila @rabois Faire is not remote first. Remote is an option but majority of our employees are office aligned

@rabois Genuine question that is not meant to be snarky: I feel Faire’s model (remote first and international hiring) is more effective than an in person culture based in a US city for a startup that is post product market fit. Would you agree or do you still feel in person is better?

Illustration of the future of technology: Faire has 300 engineers in Canada, 25 in LatAm in 3 in the entire Bay Area.

@rabois @skupor Not yet!

@skupor none yet, but Openstore has 46.
