Heroku was revolutionary and I'll always remember them that way. They made a huge industry impact. So many incredible people worked there. The final PR could've been heartfelt, celebrating memories and strongly moving to another direction, but it was a soulless void. Shameful.
If AI models were your coworkers:
Claude: The perfect CTO. Communicative, smart, opinionated, super collaborative.
Codex: The best coder in the company. Comes to the office wearing a hoodie and sandals, doesn't say anything, goes into a dark room for 2 hours, solves your worst bugs.
Gemini: A mad scientist. Artsy, talented at design, but if you sit next to them and watch them work, it's terrifying. You'd fire this person instantly.
