Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for December 5, 2023 is: smite SMYTE verb Smite means “to hit someone or something very hard.” Other uses of the word include “to severely injure, kill, or attack someone” (as in “smitten by disease”) and “to captivate or take” (as in “smitten by her beauty”). // He smote the ball mightily, which helped us win the game. See the entry > Examples: “Somehow, Kyle Shanahan keeps meeting his accursed fortune with a spirit of inquiry. His record is arguably the most perplexing in the NFL: He is one of its most playful minds and most pained losers. He seems at once young and old, with his boyishly thin neck and easy laugh yet gray bristle and a somewhat scarred look around his eyes, as if he's waiting for the next hex or treacherous blow of fate to smite him in the face.” — Sally Jenkins, The Washington Post, 10 Dec. 2022 Did you know? Today's word has been part of the English language for a very long time; its earliest uses date to before the 12th century. Smite can be traced back to the Old English smītan, meaning “to smear (a substance) on something” or “to stain or defile.” Smite kept these meanings for a few centuries before they became obsolete and others arose or became more prominent, among them the modern “to strike or attack.” But smite also has a softer side. As of the mid-17th century, it can mean “to captivate or take”—a sense that is frequently used in the past participle in such contexts as “smitten by their beauty” or “smitten with them” (meaning “in love with them”). If such a shift seems surprising, just remember what they say about the moon hitting your eye like a big pizza pie (that's a smiting).
Today Laura and Kevin speak with Pete Hunt. We chat about what it means to be an engineer, how to tell if an engineer is good and how you get from engineer to CEO, plus Pete weighs in on the Zuck vs Musk debate with his unique perspective having worked at both Instagram and Twitter. Pete joined Elementl as head of engineering in early 2022, and took over the reins as CEO in November of that year. Pete was previously co-founder and CEO of Smyte, an anti-abuse provider that was acquired by Twitter. Prior to this Pete led Instagram's web team, built Instagram's business analytics products, and helped to open source Facebook's React.js. Their platform is Dagster, a next-generation open source orchestration platform for the development, production, and observation of data assets.
Data is the name of the game in today's world. But with the amount of data sources today, how do you sift through and get the data you want? A data pipeline is the answer, and within that pipeline is a data orchestrator. Today's guest, Pete Hunt, is the CEO of Elementl, the company behind the open-source orchestration platform, Dagster. He joins Ben Rometsch to tell us all about Elementl and Dagster as well as his career journey that took him across Facebook, Instagram, Smyte, and Twitter. In this current fluctuating environment, we can say it is a feat for a company to be able to raise money. Just this year, Elementl was able to raise $33 million Series B for Dagster. Find out how they are able to achieve this, what they are doing for data orchestration, and where they are heading in the future. Tune in to this episode to not miss out!
In this episode, Amir Bormand interviews Pete Hunt, the CEO of Dagster Labs. They discuss the open-source nature of Dagster, a product that helps businesses with data orchestration. They explore the product's benefits, the challenges in the data orchestration market, and why Dagster Labs decided to open-source their product. Pete shares his background in open source and the importance of data pipelines in making sense of messy data. Tune in to learn more about how Dagster is revolutionizing the data industry.

Recorded on-stage at Øredev 2017, Fredrik talks to Pete Hunt about open sourcing the code you work on, why and how you might do it. There are many reasons to release code, from recruitment to giving back to the community to improving code quality and processes. We also touch on good reasons for writing your own thing in the first place: Are you uniquely good at it, do you have a unique market insight or do you have a unique technical insight? Don't hurry, don't release something as open source as soon as the first version is finished. How to think about maintaining an open source project if it does become popular? Think about how hard it's going to be, then double that. Staff appropriately, or scale it down to available staff. The message can't stand alone, it needs context. Make a pitch for it, including how to measure success, have a plan. Pitch both internally and externally. To round things off, a bit about what's interesting right now, and how frontend and backend are approaching eachother.

In the third Episode of Stack Stories, we sat down with Pete Hunt, one of the original creators of React, formerly of Facebook/Instagram, now CEO of Smyte. Hard to believe that one of the most popular JavaScript UI libraries on Earth got to be so popular all because Instagram needed a web presence to get SEO juice. Sound a bit far-fetched? Listen to the full story and get the details on why React was created at Facebook, how Facebook lost the mobile battle but won the war, and how React gained adoption within Facebook and eventually across the world.
