"We can not use @elixirlang , because it's hard to find senior Elixir developers." Well, problem will be somewhere else.... 700 applications for senior position with US TZ overlap in 24hours. Screenshot from Elixir Slack. #myelixirstatus

There's a secret language helping Discord and WhatsApp scale to millions. I'm scared they'll come after me if I talk about it, so I found a stock image guy who looks close enough to me (new vid on the channel btw)

Something you may not know about Buffer: We've raised just $4M in total funding over our almost 14-year journey, and generated over $170M in total lifetime revenue. Our last round was almost a decade ago in 2014. For 8 of our 13 years, we’ve been profitable. And since 2017, we have bought back 21.2% of fully diluted shares. Despite being in a phase of decline the past few years, we entered that period with a very strong bank balance of over $6M. We did not have to carry out any layoffs, throughout the pandemic or when they were very prevalent in 2022/23. Not only that, we have been able to continue buying back stock from folks who were seeking liquidity. In 2023, we carried out three stock repurchases, at a collective cost of $889K. Buying back stock during a period of decline has set us up to be in a strong position. This year, we're back to growth and profitability. We're fast approaching $19M in ARR and it feels like there's a ton of opportunity in our space right now. I enjoy operating with the flexibility to go our own unique path and really build something meaningful for customers and the team. As with life, there are seasons to a company. I love that we've created a company where we can embrace the various seasons of our industry and business, rather than turn everything upside down after one tough quarter.

Todoist has made more than $100 million in total revenue, which isn't very interesting because many others have reached this number. What's interesting is that we did it in our unique way: — Fully bootstrapped. Customers have supported us since the beginning, and we've used only our revenues to improve things further. — Complete independence. Since we are customer-supported, no one tells us what we can or can't do. — Remote-first. But not only remote-first, we've hired super talented people worldwide who never went to Ivy League schools or worked at Google. Many of the early people who joined Doist have seen a 10x increase in compensation as we've scaled Doist. — Europe mixed with US mentality. We've achieved this by working 40-hour workweeks and taking 40 days of vacation per year. We only work on weekdays. The three-member CXO team has 8 kids, and we got them while we scaled Doist. The most critical personal lesson I've learned is that you can do much more than you think. I came from a refugee background and started a real school in the 4th grade. Starting and running a tech company was not even plausible while growing up. But here we are! So start learning, growing, and building! You got this 😊🚀

Here's my take on SDKs, what if instead of tens/hundreds/thousands modules you had, you know, one or two? Check out out this article where I write about this idea with the Stripe API as an example: dashbit.co/blog/sdks-with… #MyElixirStatus

A longtime friend, one of the most reliably excellent software engineers I know, just left AWS for Airbnb. His reason? Airbnb is remote-friendly, and AWS gave him an ultimatum to RTO. RTO doesn’t filter out slackers, it just pushes away the people who have better options.

Eu sou totalmente a favor de comunicação assíncrona, mas tem um problema que vejo as pessoas falando pouco: Como lidar quando as coisas têm prazo e os outros não se posicionam dentro do tempo hábil?

So the only meta service which currently works is the one powered by Erlang? 🤔 That's a good intro to #CodeBEAM

We don’t _write_ simple code. We refine code, prune code, craft it until ahhh, better. Elegant simplicity is not a direct aim, but as we’re trying to accomplish something, we can recognize the simplicity and then figure we’ve got it right.

Combine this personality with a confident, extroverted presentation and you get 90% of the Twitch/Youtube software "influencer" class.

Wirth was the creator of Pascal, and part of the earlier Algol group that in 1957 defined the foundations of modern programming languages. “Power through simplicity, simplicity through generality” was the name of the game. He made programming better for everyone.
Association for Computing Machinery@TheOfficialACM

It is with great remorse that we mark the passing of programming language pioneer and A.M. Turing Laureate Niklaus Wirth, who passed away on Jan 1, 2024. Wirth developed a sequence of innovative computer languages, EULER, ALGOL-W, MODULA and PASCAL, which provided a foundation for future computer language, systems, and architectural research. amturing.acm.org/award_winners/…
