@IDoTheThinking Great piece.

@yenkel Gotcha - looking fwd to tomorrow!

A sample use case that would be cool to see: I have an CS LLM that uses Slack chats.

How can I use Auth0 to simplify the querying all the Slack permission semantics (orgs, channels, etc) and their implications to show the user the right data?

[arvil @arvilmit]

@yenkel 2 and 4 seem related - it's an authz challenge to query an API with the correct permissions, then display the correct information back to that specific user.

How will you handle the app-specific nuances eg Slack? Are you building direct integrations like Glean?

[arvil @arvilmit]

@NateSilver538 Is it possible to provide a margin of error on the aggregated margins?

[arvil @arvilmit]

@bhalligan I don't think he was necessarily "wrong" with d2c.

It's akin to Disney - you need to marry a distribution strategy with strong content (merchandise that people want). Think he failed with the latter.

@ECaliberSeven I did a similar analysis here in late July, but started with Cook's Toss-Up Seats as the initial filter. Column H has the fundraising numbers (per OpenSecrets), and I also triangulated with Oath. Curious to see what you think!

@aashaysanghvi_ I guess I’d ask: are the heuristics predictive of success?

[arvil @arvilmit]

@aashaysanghvi_ @haystackvc Major Congrats!!!

[arvil @arvilmit]

@chanjbs I peruse r/fatfire from time to time, so enjoyed this, thanks for writing.

[arvil @arvilmit]

Turns out we’re both weirdos with a thing for authorization. 🙃

So excited to have a legend in the Authentication space on board supporting @abbeylabsSF

[Jon Oberheide @jonoberheide]

Nothing gets me more excited than Principle of Least Privilege (PoLP). Yes, I may be a weirdo, but turns out it's pretty important...and @abbeylabsSF Labs is making this historically-challenged space of auth-z quite a bit easier. Congrats @arvilmit and team on the seed round!

[arvil @arvilmit]

There’s probably a lesson here on what not to do as a founder when sitting next to an amazing investor for 3 hours at dinner, but it all worked out!

Excited to be partnering with the Haystack team!

@aashaysanghvi_ incumbents: when marginal costs of launching are 0, we all are copilot

[arvil @arvilmit]

@thefirejar Congrats!!

[arvil @arvilmit]

@finn_meeks I've done this...except it was the David Bowie movie, and we were confused as to why it was taking so long to see Billy Eichner (in Bros). Verrrrry different.

[arvil @arvilmit]

@GrowSF @garrytan just donated :)

[arvil @arvilmit]

@mitchellh On the other hand, passkeys are incredible?

Passkeys + device identity = a secure but frictionless user experience

@asanwal Housing in CA. Break the logjam of YIMBY vs NIMBY and turn construction into a major economic driver alongside tech.

[arvil @arvilmit]

@rbranson okta too.

actually went from weekly to monthly releases due to large enterprise customers not feeling prepared enough for frequent deploys (and the ensuing issues).

[arvil @arvilmit]

@tnachen @EssenceVenture yay tim!!
