It's been almost 10 years since one of my most embarrassing fundraising moments as a founder. A moment so embarrassing that I couldn’t talk about it for years. It taught me the difference between raising a Seed round and a Series A, as well as some well needed humility.🧵👇

The periodic reminders that we are hiring will continue until enough people have joined the team. 😊 If you're a systems programmer or programming languages/compiler person who wants to help us build a better API observability tool, I'd love to hear from you. Please share!

I was told to make it more clear we're hiring, so: My name is Jean Yang (🚨 WE ARE HIRING!!! 🚨). I am the founder and CEO of @AkitaSoftware. We're building a new kind of API observability tool that catches breaking changes sooner. Join us! Please share. jobs.lever.co/akitasoftware/…

It originally stood for Low Level Virtual Machine, signifying a virtual instruction set. The acronym is deprecated because many people misinterpreted it as a (language) virtual machine infrastructure. Now it’s just a name 😅

My father, Edmund M Clarke, passed away from Covid today. He won the 2007 Turing Award for computer science. While he always had high expectations when it came to academic success, he also taught me to hit baseballs, to fish, and to travel worldwide. I will miss him dearly.

Covering Disco and SubVirt in advanced OS today! Man these are so good! The wealth of fascinating ideas is insane. Thanks @stk and co for subvirt :) and @ebugnion and co for Disco. I love how Disco was motivated by "It's a lot of work to scale that OS to our awesome HW."

So much for precedent and judicial restraint. Two justices now openly call for an end to marriage equality—knowing reinforcements are on the way. The stakes could not be higher.
