#306: In this episode of DevOps Paradox, we delve into the role of GraphQL in modern APIs with guest Sophia Willows from Rye. They discuss the pros and cons of using GraphQL versus REST and gRPC, highlighting the efficiencies and complexities each brings to API development, especially in developer tools. They tackle common misconceptions and usage pitfalls of GraphQL, offering valuable insights into its optimal application. Sophia explains the rationale behind Rye's choice of GraphQL for public-facing APIs while opting for REST and gRPC for internal microservices, reflecting on the trade-offs between performance and flexibility.

Romain Torres bootstrapped ARCads.ai from zero to $6 million ARR in just 16 months with only 5 employees, achieving an extraordinary $1.2 million in revenue per employee while staying completely profitable. He launched in January 2024, hit $5,000 MRR in his first week, crossed $1 million ARR by June 2024, and recently added $1 million in new ARR in a single month between April and May 2025.

In this episode, Romain screen-shares his actual Gumloop dashboard and reveals exactly how he built AI agents that scrape competitor ads, automatically rewrite copy, and send daily Slack alerts with replication opportunities—plus his three-channel growth strategy that's driving $500,000+ in monthly recurring revenue.

HR: part therapist, part referee, part corporate cleanup crew. This week, we're joined by Amy Lentz, Chief People Officer at TOMS and the creator behind HackYourHR, to answer the big question: what does HR actually do all day (besides read your Slack messages)? From her early days working for the Obama administration to landing at TOMS, Amy shares what it really takes to keep a workplace semi-functional. She also gets a front-row seat to some of the wildest corporate confessions we've ever collected and breaks down each scandal with her HR perspective. We dig into the secrets of anonymous feedback forms, the ethics of outing an STD at the office, and whether HR is quietly tracking your office romance. Plus, we debate job title upgrades, “Open to Work” etiquette, and whether you should ask for a raise while you're on a PIP.

In this episode of the Impostor Syndrome Files, we talk about embracing uncertainty as a leader. What does it really mean to lead with humanity—especially in an age of AI, change fatigue, and constant uncertainty? My guest this week is Jim Bouchard, author, speaker, and founder of The Human Centric Leader. In this powerful conversation, Jim shares how his personal journey from addiction to leadership taught him what transformation really takes—and why the best leaders don't have all the answers.We explore what it means to lead through uncertainty, the importance of sharing power and time, and how AI may actually amplify our humanity rather than replace it—if we use it well. We also dig into why resistance is a powerful compass, and how impostor syndrome can get in the way of becoming the leader you were meant to be.About My GuestBy his own admission, Jim Bouchard should have been dead or in jail many times over. Martial arts helped him overcome a life of crippling self-doubt and self-destruction. In his programs, Jim shares his inspiring transformation from dropout and drug addict to Black Belt and Sensei -- and how that experience made him a genuine leader.  He went on to open 5 martial arts schools, helping hundreds of people achieve their Black Belt rank, and thousands more discover their best selves.Today, Jim helps leaders around the world connect on a deeply human level to attract, engage, and lead people to their highest levels of performance and productivity.~Connect with Jim:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jimbouchard/Website: https://www.thehumancentricleader.org/Join the Community: https://keep-it-human.mn.co/landing?space_id=17243140~Connect with Kim and The Impostor Syndrome Files:Join the free Impostor Syndrome Challenge:https://www.kimmeninger.com/challengeLearn more about the Leading Humans discussion group:https://www.kimmeninger.com/leadinghumansgroupJoin the Slack channel to learn from, connect with and support other professionals: https://forms.gle/Ts4Vg4Nx4HDnTVUC6Join the Facebook group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/leadinghumansSchedule time to speak with Kim Meninger directly about your questions/challenges: https://bookme.name/ExecCareer/strategy-sessionConnect on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimmeninger/Website:https://kimmeninger.com

We've heard all the usual suspects when it comes to remote engagement—Slack check-ins, virtual happy hours, maybe an annual engagement survey if we're lucky. But what if the problem isn't the tools, but the assumptions? In this episode, David Rice sits down with Dr. Adora Ikwuemesi, whose recent qualitative study of remote workers in Nigeria reveals a much deeper, more nuanced picture of what truly drives—or erodes—remote engagement.Adora walks us through her seven-part framework that emerged from conversations with 24 remote workers. Spoiler: it's not just about more communication; it's about better connection. From the physical realities of working without reliable electricity, to the surprising role that fun plays in fostering commitment, this conversation strips engagement down to its real-world components—beyond perks and policies. If you think your team is “fine,” you may just be missing the silence before the storm.Related Links:Join the People Managing People community forumSubscribe to the newsletter to get our latest articles and podcastsConnect with Dr. Adora on LinkedInCheck out Dr. Adora's website and Kendor Consulting LtdSupport the show

On this episode, taken from The Ben & Marc Show, a16z co-founders Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz dive deep into the unfiltered story behind the founding of Andreessen Horowitz—and how they set out to reinvent venture capital itself. For the first time, Marc and Ben walk through the origins, strategy, and philosophy behind building a world-class venture capital firm designed for the future—not just the next fund. They reveal how they broke industry norms with a bold brand, a full-stack support model, and a long-term commitment to backing exceptional builders—anchored in the radical idea that founders deserved real support, not just checks. Joining them to guide the conversation is Erik Torenberg—Andreessen Horowitz's newest General Partner—who makes his Ben & Marc Show moderating debut.

How many battles are you fighting without even being aware you're in the arena?It might seem like everything is “fine”. Sure, you had struggles, some hard times and bad luck, and things that didn't quite go your way. Many people have a story or two about the time they got fucked over BECAUSE they were doing the right thing.That boomerang can spin around and hit you when you least expect it, like it did for Tony Crescenzo.Tony grew up in a family of mechanics. Really, all the men in his family were mechanics, except for one grandfather who retired relatively young and bought a farm. They all lived in that same South Philadelphia neighborhood where the Rocky Balboa character trained for his fights with Apollo Creed. So young Tony worked Saturdays as a mechanic and Sundays on his grandfather's farm, learning the value of good, honest work.Tony's parents divorced. His mother remarried to a Navy officer and they moved to Hawaii. His stepfather's friend was an old-school Marine whose John Wayne-esque tales of service and heroism inspired young Tony to join the Marines. That's where he learned priceless lessons about teamwork, being part of something greater than yourself, and the importance of service. That's until he was assigned to NIS (which is what it was before NCIS), working in criminal investigations to bring down a paycheck scam. As the only witness for the upcoming court-martial of the accused, he soon found himself being court-martialed – and convicted – for a plethora of exaggerated charges, one of which was that he was UA (think AWOL) even though he was on an approved leave!So much for Semper Fi, right? Well, not exactly. Tony did get the conviction reversed, along with a commendation for his service and $20 for his trouble. But he decided to pivot to the private sector, working for, leading, and owning various companies and becoming a sort of “Clint Eastwood” of corporate restructuring. The thing is, his penchant for fighting was affecting every aspect of his life. Both his first and his second wives were used to Tony waking them up in the middle of the night screaming in his sleep. In his own words, he was was one of those people who goes from zero to fuck you in 10 seconds. So things weren't “fine”. It's a four-letter word. And then everything changed when he mis-Googled directions to the CIA.In a moment, when we meet Tony, he is going to give us a master class in accountability, vulnerability, and leadership including the power of meditation and an innovative method he is bringing to market for treating PTSD. As you listen, reflect on the fact that PTSD is not limited to those who have seen death and destruction on the battlefield. It comes in many different forms from triggers you might not even know.Tony's hype song is “Summer Wind” by Frank Sinatra.

And in today's hybrid and fast-moving work culture, trust isn't built in quarterly town halls or the occasional Slack message. It's built through consistent, clear, and HUMAN communication. Companies and leaders TALK about the importance of connection and community. And it's easy to believe your organization is doing a great job of...

Welcome to the Cloud Wars Minute — your daily cloud news and commentary show. Each episode provides insights and perspectives around the “reimagination machine” that is the cloud.In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I dive into Slack's bold move to restrict API access to bulk data exports, effectively blocking the use of its platform data for LLM training and signaling a strategic pivot toward proprietary AI control and heightened data security Highlights00:03 — Salesforce has changed the API Terms of Service for Slack, which will stop companies from using LLMs to ingest data from the platform. Ultimately, the new policy prohibits the bulk export of Slack data via the API and confirms that data access through Slack APIs cannot be used for LLM training.00:21 — From now on, companies will have to use Slack's new real-time search API. In a blog post by the Slack developer team, the company states that this new API eliminates the need for large data exports from Slack, keeping customer data secure while maintaining support for key use cases like permission-based search.00:56 — Now, while Salesforce and Slack say the focus is on security, there is another angle being discussed, that this move encourages a shift towards proprietary technologies. It's difficult to pinpoint this trend. On one hand, we see a push for interoperability across the industry, while on the other, Slack's announcement on the real-time research API coincided with support for the Model Context Protocol.01:25 — Data is still the currency that drives AI and sharing it recklessly with any LLM that requires access can be counterproductive from a business standpoint. Companies like Salesforce don't want to be liable for data used by third-party applications, and none of the major tech companies want to stifle innovation with overly restrictive policies.

Interview with Dave Lewis Organizations believe they have a firm grip on security with SSO and corporate IT policies, but in reality, shadow IT lurks in the background—expanding attack surfaces and exposing sensitive data. Employees bypass security controls for the sake of convenience, while SSO fails to provide the comprehensive security net organizations expect. Talk about the critical weaknesses in traditional SSO implementations, how shadow IT thrives under the radar, and why enterprises continue to experience data breaches despite security investments. Can cover real-world examples of security failures, highlight the role of human behavior in risk, and provide actionable strategies to regain control over enterprise security. This segment is sponsored by 1Password. Visit https://securityweekly.com/1password to learn more about them! Topic Segment: Is AI taking our jerbs or not? I listened to most of a debate between Marcus Hutchins and Daniel Miessler over whether generative AI will be good enough to replace a lot of jobs (Daniel's take), or so bad that it won't take any (Marcus's take). I got frustrated though, because I feel like some foundational assumptions were ignored, and not enough examples were shared or prepared. Assumption #1: Jobs exist because work needs to be done. This is a false assumption. Check out a book called "Bullshit Jobs" to go down this particular rabbit hole. Assumption #2: The primary task of a job is the job. This is rarely the case, unless you work in the service industry. How much of a developer's job is writing code? A lot less than you think. Employees spend a massive amount of time communicating with other employees, via meetings, emails, Slack chats - can AI replace this? Maybe all that communication is wasteful and inefficient? Could be, but for every job AI supposedly replaces, it becomes someone else's job to manage that AI agent. Does all of middle management become expert prompt engineers, or do they also disappear with no employees to manage? Assumption #3: Jobs aren't already being replaced. They are, they're just not terribly visible jobs. That contractor your marketing team was using to build blog/SEO content? He's probably gone. The in-house or contract graphic designer? Probably gone. There's a whole swath of jobs out there, where quality isn't very important, but work needs to be produced, and those jobs are being actively replaced with generative AI. With that said, I don't see any full time jobs that require quality work and a lot of communication with other employees getting replaced. Yet? Ever? That's the question. The Enterprise News In this week's enterprise security news, Not much interesting funding to discuss Securonix acquires ThreatQuotient Cellebrite acquires Corellium (that sounds a lot like a rock bought a stone or a gem or something) Yet another free vulnerability database ChatGPT can now clandestinely record meetings Threat detection resources a VERY expensive Zoom call (for the victim) Should we stop using SOC2s?

In this episode, let's discuss what to do when everyone wants your time, so you struggle to find time to dig into the strategic, big-picture work that you know is important. We talk about: Some of my more standard advice—like shutting your door for a focus block or going dark on Slack  What to try if those tactics aren't working for you Why it might make sense to “take a day off” (or 1/2 or 3/4 day off) ... and then not actually take it off & use it for strategic work. If you're in a leadership role and feel like you're constantly putting out fires but never getting to that higher-level strategic thinking, I really hope this helps. This episode is designed to help you protect time for that work—so your time use actually matches the leadership role you're in. Links you might enjoy:
