In our latest episode, our co-hosts Robby and Tim talk with Yoni Michael and Kostas Pardalis , Co-Founders of Typedef . Both have deep backgrounds in data infrastructure (Starburst, Tecton, etc.) and, after meeting through a "blind date" at Blue Bottle Coffee, decided to team up to address the growing brittleness of large-scale data pipelines - issues made worse by the rise of AI. They explain how traditional systems like Spark weren’t designed for today’s AI workloads, especially unstructured data and LLM inference. Fenic was their answer: an open-source engine and DataFrame library built specifically for LLM workflows, multi-step reasoning, and agentic systems - without the operational complexity. Their biggest lessons: start GTM early, talk to as many data leaders as possible, and keep validating - insights that led directly to open-sourcing Fenic and building its MCP-powered developer experience.…

In our latest episode, Robby and Tim talk with Will McGugan , creator of the Rich and Textual open source projects and founder of Textualize and Toad (not yet released), about the challenges of turning beloved open-source projects into real businesses. Despite Rich and Textual's huge adoption in the Python community, he says he waited too long to monetize, focused too much on technical perfection, and tried to build infrastructure before a killer product. He also burned himself out and wishes he had simplified and hired earlier. McGugan believes the terminal is a neglected but essential interface, prized for speed and flow. Rich and Textual modernized terminal output, but monetizing open-core dev tools proved difficult. His new project, Toad, aims to be a universal AI front-end for the terminal - open-source, protocol-driven, and able to plug into different agent back ends like Claude and others. The goal: seamless workflows and modern UX in the environment developers already live in. Big takeaways: monetize early, ship a killer app sooner, don’t overcomplicate structure, and avoid grinding yourself into the ground.…

In this episode, we sit down with Paul Klein IV , Founder & CEO of Browserbase , to explore how his team is redefining the foundation of AI-driven browser automation . Browserbase provides the web browser infrastructure for AI agents and apps, and its open-source SDK, Stagehand , lets developers write automations using natural language - adapting seamlessly as websites evolve. Paul shares his belief that browser automation is a critical but underinvested primitive that future AI applications will depend on for years. He traces the journey from the limitations of traditional headless browsers and brittle RPA tools to the emergence of a cleaner, more adaptable framework built for the AI era. We dive into: Stagehand’s design philosophy : minimal feature bloat and strong abstractions. Developer-first community : TypeScript and Python support driven by user demand and open-source contributions prioritized through community PRs. Director , Browserbase’s new layer for non-technical users: “if v0 was for building websites, Director is for building automations.” How open source investment fuels both innovation and integration, and why Browserbase believes the next billion-dollar company will be built on top of its framework. The evolving relationship between AI agents and the web , touching on Cloudflare, automation ethics, and where the line lies between automation and scraping. Paul also reflects on inspiration from figures like Jeff Lawson, the importance of great abstractions for new developers, and the “moment of magic” when AI begins to work on your behalf.…

This episode dives into why code quality still matters in the age of AI , and why English - no matter how good models get - won’t replace programming . Our guest is Co-Founder of Boundary , Vaibhav Gupta , and he shares the journey behind BAML , a new programming language to write and manage AI logic. After 12 pivots and 3.5 years, the team realized something simple but powerful: AI tools were evolving fast, but the code was ugly . Most AI generated code was unnecessarily long and messy. For builders who viewed code as artistic expression , that was painful. Once they tried BAML , everything changed. It was clean, elegant - completely the opposite of AI slop. It wasn’t an overnight success. It took nine months to reach ten users — but the early ones stayed because of thoughtful design: Easy model swapping Full visibility into every prompt and test case A workflow so simple that non-technical users (even lawyers!) could test code BAML was built with a philosophy that code is the source of truth , not the docs. The conversation touches on how LLM observability and thoughtfully designed code make BAML unique. It’s inspired by the same thinking that made React sticky - beauty and composability. Pretty code, the founder believes, isn’t vanity - it’s a functional advantage : Fewer bugs Easier to reason about Friendlier for AI-generated systems…

In the episode, we sat down with ClickHouse Co-Founder Yury Izrailevsky to unpack how one of the fastest open-source databases in the world became the analytics engine of choice for 2,000 customers including Harvey, Canva, HP, and Supabase. From its Yandex origins to powering AI observability, Yury shares how ClickHouse balances open-source roots, cloud innovation, and a remote-first culture moving at breakneck speed. ClickHouse's Series C valued the company at $6.35B earlier this year, and just yesterday they announced an extension to that round , just months after it was raised. In this episode, we dig into: Origins & Founding Story ClickHouse began as an internal project at Yandex to power a Google Analytics–style platform, focused on performance and scale. Open-sourced in 2016 - rapid global adoption laid the foundation for ClickHouse the company. Yury first discovered ClickHouse while at Google; impressed by its speed, he later co-founded the company in 2021 alongside Aaron Katz (ex-Elastic) and the original creator Alexey Milovidov. Why ClickHouse Stands Out Column-oriented, open source OLAP database designed for massive-scale analytical processing. Excels in performance, efficiency, and cost - ideal for large data volumes and real-time analytics (and now AI workloads). Architectural choices: Columnar storage = better compression and faster execution. Separation of compute and storage enables elasticity, scalability, and resilience in the cloud. Open Source vs. Cloud Open-source version offers freedom and flexibility. Cloud product delivers much lower total cost of ownership and fully managed experience. Architectural parity between the two ensuring no vendor lock-in for customers. Customers can run the same queries on both; most stay with cloud due to simplicity and cost efficiency. Use Cases & Ecosystem 4 main use cases: Real-time analytics Data Warehousing Observability AI / ML Workloads Company Building & Culture Fully remote from day one. Prioritized experienced, self-sufficient engineers over early-career hires. Built and launched GA version in less than a year - insane pace of innovation. Innovation & Community Monthly release cadence. Hundreds of integrations and connectors. Strong open-source and commercial community Advice for Founders Focus on what matters most Hire mature, independent thinkers.
