@Scobleizer @tidelift It was acquired by Sonar, but @dff and @havocp were making a strong go of making open source both a strong business model and worth it (financially) for maintainers, builders, and a thriving OSS community with less risk. I hope it comes back.

We're hiring a Head of Engineering at @DuckbillHQ.

We think the entire cloud cost management industry is solving the wrong problem. While everyone else is building tools for making bills smaller for startups, we're building a data platform for making them more predictable and less complex across an entire enterprise.

Given we're early days, this is a builder role. You'll be in the code every day and setting the pace for the team. You'll be leading the team on foundational decisions from day one.

The engineering problems are interesting. We're processing hundreds of millions of rows of billing data per customer per month. We're modeling pricing schemes and contract structures for every provider we support. The dimensionality reaches into the thousands of columns when you combine provider billing data with customer data and the datasets hit terabytes easily. The customer needs to not just query this data, but modify it too--faster than a traditional data pipeline allows.

We're ~12 people, based in SF, well-funded through revenue and our investors, and have the kind of customer list and brand awareness most seed-stage companies spend years trying to build.

Feel free to DM me. Job post and more details about our point of view are linked below.

The Fortune 500 thinks about AI through the lens of efficiency and effectiveness: What they should be thinking about is epistemology.

@IkonPass - while I appreciate the reminder about blackout days approaching, it’s a bitter reminder of how I won’t be using it this year given the terrible #skiing conditions.

@compliantvc Not real. Everyone knows you need at least six cars to live acceptably in Texas. More in the ‘burbs.

@TheMafiaPoint These comments lead me to believe that folks think of this movie as a documentary rather than fiction coupled with cinematography
