We recently crossed $6K/mo in recurring subscriptions 🎉 A nice milestone If I was solo on Blacksky that would be enough for me to make a living full-time on just all of your direct support But this year is about growing and providing for the core team who took/will take risks to work alongside me

I know there are a lot of mutual aid asks coming out of Minneapolis right now, but both of my kids graduated from South High and it would mean a lot to me for people to contribute to this rent fund for my fellow South families. I’ll match the first $1000 if you post receipts. Tiger Pride 🧡🖤

Hey folks, if you read my recent blog post, you may be surprised to hear this but unfortunately my main source of support has abruptly ended today and I am scrambling to figure out how to replace both boring support (like help with dishes) and emergency support (when I have serious MCAS attacks).

I want to do more of these at my store SO badly, but we haven’t really built up a community of enough puzzle enthusiasts. We’ve done a couple and they were so much fun. Congratulations!!!

It’s actually really liberating from the grip of paranoia to assume you’re being read or listened to and act accordingly. If you assume what you say is public, if you don’t want someone to see it or hear it, don’t say it or do it. But if you do say it, say it with your whole chest

whenever i tell friends about robot karaoke they often say they don’t like karaoke because they aren’t good at singing and it’s such a fucking bummer knowing that people i love are loving by the constraint that one can only do a thing for fun if they are “good” at it

If you're trying to ditch NYT Games, which you should be since their games singlehandedly prop up the entire dogshit rag financially, you should switch to Puzzmo. An annual sub is 50% off today for a crazy $19 and as a bonus doesn't enable the genocides of Palestinians and trans people

Puzzmo — The (new) place for thoughtful puzzles.

Re-imagined mainstays like the daily Crossword Puzzle, modern classics like Really Bad Chess and SpellTower, and even a few brand new puzzles.

This is what I do at work, come work with me! We can make so many things so much better!

The Role:
Convex is a backend platform but our key differentiator is an excellent client API and developer experience. We've invested huge efforts in our client libraries, development APIs and sync protocol to make Convex a joy to use for application developers. We're looking to expand our team to develop the next version of the Convex API and help define what the modern application stack looks like.
If you're an experienced TypeScript developer, care deeply about elegance and taste in API design, and believe that good platforms matter even more, not less, in an era of Al app development, then this is the job for you.
What You'll Do:
• Design, build, and maintain Convex's client libraries, sync protocol, and query APls.
• Support new frameworks and keep track of new technologies in the app development space.
• Develop an understanding of what abstractions scale and compose well in our stack so we can build libraries that are not just easy to use but also simple over the lifetime of a project.
• Be self-directed to prioritize the right projects to work on, in close collaboration with the engineering team and CTO (hi! this is me, James).
• Help establish good practices and design guidelines as we scale up our team and systems.
• Write a bunch of cool client library code.
