Based on how great @figma slides are, when are Figma docs coming out?

@sqs @Sourcegraph @AmpCode Pumped to watch @sqs and @beyang continue to build their vision of making coding ubiquitous. And know @Sourcegraph is a great hands with @DanielNealAdler ! Congrats!

We’re making Sourcegraph and Amp two independent companies. @Sourcegraph will be totally focused on code search and code understanding for big codebases, in a world where AI is writing and searching 1000x more code. @AmpCode is becoming Amp Inc., an independent research lab, shipping our frontier coding agent and exploring the future of software development. Our mission is to let software builders harness the full power of artificial intelligence. Big congrats and thank you to the entire team, all of whom are going to one or the other—and especially to @DanielNealAdler, who will step up as CEO of @Sourcegraph. Dan has a CS and programming background and has built Sourcegraph from the ground up with us, earning tons of dev love and the top tech companies, AI labs, and big banks as customers. He has run almost everything at Sourcegraph along the way and has built a successful, accelerating business here, most recently as our CFO. He has also found time to make hundreds of (very good!) commits to our prod codebase. I’m incredibly excited for the future of code search, including more Deep Search, agentic large-scale changes, and deep integration with all the other coding agents out there (not just Amp). @beyang and I will remain on Sourcegraph’s board and are founding Amp Inc. with members of the Amp team from Sourcegraph. Our board investors Craft, Redpoint, Sequoia, Goldcrest, and a16z will continue to serve on the boards of both companies. I’m so grateful to our customers and team for their trust here. Internally, we’ve been operating more independently for the last 45 days and working with customers on the transition, and it has been going incredibly smoothly. The future is bright. This change will give both Sourcegraph and Amp more focus and will let us ship better and faster. We are all incredibly excited about the road ahead as Sourcegraph and Amp work independently to advance the frontier of software development.

It's looking like @vladtenev is going to be the Bezos of our day. The new Private Banking product from @RobinhoodApp is so well done.

The greatest of holidays.

Thank you to all of our amazing Veterans, especially my Dad. As a Doctor in the US Navy, my Dad served in Operation Desert Storm. He is a true patriot. I still remember talking to him on the phone while he was deployed, and his absence at Christmas. This photo was taken minutes after he arrived back from his 6 month deployment, it was a joyous occasion! Unfortunately, the cool flight jacket no longer fits 😀 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

Unlike Gaza and the intentional lies during war this is a REAL horrific genocide.
