Reflecting on Founder Mode

With some time passed, Bryan and Adam offer a non-hot take on Paul Graham's "Founder Mode" post. While there is plenty to quibble over, there's also the kernel of an important idea: how to balance experience, novel thinking, and limited time? Also stay tuned as they share a years old "ego con". Your hosts were Bryan Cantrill and Adam Leventhal. Some of the topics we hit on, in the order that we hit them: Paul Graham Founder ModeBryan Reflecting on Founder ModeTim O'Reilly How I FailedCamille Fournier Founder Create ManagersBryan Chesky interview we mentionOxF: on Steve Jobs and the NeXT Big ThingSeagull ManagementHow to Castrate a Bull NOT AN ENDORSEMENT; DO NOT READThe ego con: Non-Stop HitzIf we got something wrong or missed something, please file a PR!

RFDs: The Backbone of Oxide

RFDs--Requests for Discussion--are how we at Oxide discuss... just about everything! Technical design, hardware component selection, changes in process, culture, interview systems, (even) chat--we have RFDs for all of these, over 500 in a bit under 5 years. Bryan and Adam were joined by Oxide colleagues instrumental to RFDs, from their most prolific author to those making them more consumable. In addition to Bryan Cantrill and Adam Leventhal, we were joined by Oxide colleagues, Robert Mustacchi, David Crespo, Ben Leonard, and Augustus Mayo.

Whither CockroachDB?

Lots of engineering decisions get made on vibes. Popularity, anecdotes—they can lead to expedient decisions rather than rigorous ones. At Oxide, our choice to go with CockroachDB was hardly hasty! Dave Pacheco joins Bryan and Adam to talk about why we choose CRDB… and how Cockroach Lab’s recent switch to a proprietary license impacts that. In addition to Bryan Cantrill and Adam Leventhal, our special guest was Dave Pacheco. Some of the topics we hit on, in the order that we hit them: TechCrunch: Cockroach Labs shakes up its licensing to force bigger companies to payKelsey's TweetOxide RFD 53: Control plane data storage requirementsOxide RFD 110: CockroachDB for the control plane databaseOxide RFD 508: Whither CockroachDBJoyent blog post on the outage due to postgres autovacuumJepsenDave's CRDB exploration repoChronyOxF: A Debugging Odyssey -- debugging an issue that manifested in CRDBThe Liberation of RethinkDBIf we got something wrong or missed something, please file a PR!

The Saga of Sagas

The Oxide control plane coordinates multiple services to do complex, compound operations. Early on, we knew we wanted to provide a robust structure for these multi-part workflows. We stumbled onto Distributed Sagas and built our own implementation in Steno. Bryan and Adam are joined by several members of the Oxide team who built and use Steno to drive the complex operation of the control plane. In addition to Bryan Cantrill and Adam Leventhal, speakers included Dave Pacheco. Eliza Weisman, Andrew Stone, Greg Colombo, and James MacMahon. Some of the topics we hit on, in the order that we hit them: Distributed Sagas: A Protocol for Coordinating Microservices - Caitie McCaffreyOxide RFD 107: Workflows EngineStenochat: "the trouble with other people's workflow engines, somehow with all the yaml in the world they're never quite extensible enough"Not our first bit of background noise on OxF (trombone)SAGAS paperchat: "when i hear sagas i think "transaction semantics enforced at the application layer" and when i hear workflow i hear "a dsl that doesn't have a for loop""Automated saga testingOxide RFD 289: Steno UpgradeFeral Concurrency Control paper from Berkeley and the University of SydneyEliza's PRSteno's description of its divergence from Distributed SagasAWS "constant work" blogchat: "Now, migrate the owl."OxF on formal methodsA complex bug with sagas: "tl;dr there's TWENTY steps in 5042 that leads to an accounting bug"Oxide RFD 373: Reliable Persistent WorkflowsEliza's novella on updating an instanceIf we got something wrong or missed something, please file a PR!

Pragmatic LLM usage with Nicholas Carlini

Nicholas Carlini joined Bryan and Adam to talk about his terrific blog post on his many pragmatic uses of LLMs to solve real problems.

Innovation Tokens with Charity Majors

Charity Majors joined Bryan, Adam, and the Oxide Friends to talk about the idea of "innovation tokens"--a fixed budget for, so called, "innovative" projects. When is boring better and when is innovation the safer approach? Is Oxide issuing innovation tokens in some sort of hyper-inflationary cycle!? In addition to Bryan Cantrill and Adam Leventhal, we were joined by special guest Charity Majors. Some of the topics we hit on, in the order that we hit them: Glyph: Against Innovation TokensCharity's Twitter ThreadOxF: Let That Sink In!
