Scaling DevTools Podcast

AI SREs are already fixing bugs that would be almost impossible to fix otherwise @lawrjones (@incident_io) @ @aiDotEngineer

Recently joined @jacksbridger on @ScalingDevTools to talk about how @ohmyzsh went from “please let my coworkers use my Git shortcuts” to… whatever this has become. We got into open source maintenance, developer experience, AI-assisted PRs, and the weird afterlife of dotfiles. robbyonrails.com/articles/2026/…

@kiwicopple @supabase Wow legend!

Supabase has raised $500M at a $10B valuation In this round we are giving @supabase employees the opportunity to cash out 25% of their vested options. We have done this in every round since inception. We do it as a “cashless transaction” so that employees don’t need to front any cash to exercise their options. This is the friendliest way we could design it until we can offer RSUs. On top of that, we give employees a 10 year exercise window: whether they stay or leave the company. The typical/default window is 3 months. IMO, equity is earned and employees shouldn't be penalized because they don't have the cash to exercise within 3 months of leaving a job (often that's the time they need the cash/certainty the most).

Cohosting an infra/devtools drinks in London this Wednesday with @heavybit... and it's on a boat

Hook first -> teach well -> sell later This is @aarondfrancis's basic formula for making videos developers wanna watch. - teach a “pop educational” nugget devs care about - don't address the nugget straight on, but package it within an application dev problem. - e.g. Nugget: background jobs. Wrapper: how to send 50k onboarding emails in your SaaS - add your personality and curiosity - let people discover your product as a 2nd-order effect

. @mattaitken from @triggerdotdev talking durable agents - @aiDotEngineer Europe

Got to talk at @aiDotEngineer conf last week about the need for collaborative AI engineering. All our current coding agents are single player. We're trying to scale up individual productivity, but creating tons of alignment problems in the process. We have no good tools for...

The Cloudflare guys really like Pi

When @nicknisi and @zackproser from @WorkOS ran their workshop at AIE, someone just got their Hermes bot to complete it and submit - and it was good

🫡 @aiDotEngineer in London was extremely good. Absolutely incredible speaker line up, great curation, escaped the Silicon Valley bubble masturbation. Would go again.

Gossip is a leading indicator of conference quality. And @aiDotEngineer London had incredible gossip - @threepointone

We'll be open-sourcing a docker-compatible cli for firecracker that will help with building your own sandboxes @mattaitken from @triggerdotdev at @aiDotEngineer

People are trying to make PRs the place to do collaboration and alignment. But they are a terrible place to do that because they're at the end of a process @Mappletons from @github at @aiDotEngineer
