For folks who are interested in such things, I just looked up my level progression over the years at Microsoft. (Image is the same data as a chart) Hire at L60 L61 -- Dec 1999 L62 -- Feb 2001 L63 -- Dec 2005 L64 -- Mar 2008 L65 -- Sept 2011 L66 -- Sept 2015 L67 -- Sept 2018
Someone asked me what level I started at Microsoft, my progression through levels, etc... so I had to go look it up. Started as a L60 back in May of 1999! So 23 years as of yesterday

Vittorio has left this world today 😒 He was a unique individual. Full of passion, curiosity, knowledge, wisdom and sense of humor. β€œBuongiorno Eveybody!” he would start every conference talk. I am only grateful to him. Auth0 is the result of his influence and passion for identity πŸ™ I am very sad but also relieved that I was able to tell him how much I loved and admired him the last few months while he was sick. Thank you Vitto, you will be missed but your legacy will be always remembered ✨

One of my favorite features shipped in @stripe docs recently: you can now hover over api parameters in code snippets to get in-context definitions i.e. no more having to navigate away and break flow to get this information 😍

We updated the search UX on Stripe.com/docs, it's not a huge change, but there's a new feature we haven't added any advertisement about yet... Hint: try typing API: in the prompt πŸ™‚

Because of the pay gap, women have lost out on more than $60 trillion in wages since 1967. Yes, trillion. Today women still earn roughly 82 cents for every dollar earned by men, despite playing an outsized role in our economy. We must ensure fair wages for all.

This is a reckless comment from a lawyer who knows better. No one is jailing anyone at will. A grand jury has found probable cause of crimes. Trump gets due process, like everyone else. He gets jailed only if a jury finds guilt beyond a reasonable doubt and a judge imposes jail.

If the people in power can jail their political opponents at will, we don’t have a republic

Then with @micaelaballew, I got the chance to build stripe.com/terminal. I desperately wanted to make this animation extra special, so I quietly snuck in an easter egg to make the buttons clickable. 1337 still redirects you to the /jobs page 😏

I had an awesome time interviewing @dwizzzleMSFT. Dave is super smart and a champion for security researchers and the hacker community. I'm now also convinced he's cloned himself and/or created a pocket universe in order to undertake all of his extra-curricular hobbies. 😁 Enjoy!
David Weston @dwizzzleMSFT, VP of Enterprise and OS Security at Microsoft, joins @nicfill in the first episode of the new BlueHat podcast to discuss the importance of security research as part of a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy. Listen on Apple 🎧 msft.it/6019gZZex

Not everyone knows this, but Taylor Swift also wrote another book, under a pseudonym. It’s called Born Yesterday: Inexperience and the Early Realist Novel, and you can buy it here: press.jhu.edu/books/title/11…
Swifties made a random, unpublished book a bestseller after convincing themselves Taylor wrote it dlvr.it/SnqWsY

Chat is the most obvious but least interesting interface to LLMs. It’s like calling REST APIs using curl. There’s not enough exploration into using the LLM response to power graphical interfaces, like we’d use any other API.

Went through this history with someone at work recently, figured I should write it up and put it out onto the web duncanmackenzie.net/blog/evo… Based on my best recollection, but feel free to correct me as you wish πŸ™‚
