That sucker's still kicking. I mean, I assume these games have like a long tail of people who just keep playing it forever, right?

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

1068.081

I've actually played a couple of handheld games to the end of their support where you can just tell at the end where it's like, okay, they were either, this is like pre in-app purchase. It was like one time sale kind of thing where it's like you pay three bucks and you play it.

and very popular they're making a lot of money everything is good six months go by a year people move on but then there's like this core there's like this group of people that just keep playing and i was one of them specifically a game called hero academy which is one of the best turn-based strategy games i've ever played and i loved it it was like chess with more complexity because your players couldn't just they could move a certain place but they also had special abilities and there was teams and it was just it was really well conceived and

1111.104

And I played it so, so long that eventually like things just started breaking, you know, and they try it and the community rallied, like, can we open source the backend? And I was like part of that whole thing of like, can we keep this game going? The answer was no, we could not keep it going.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

1125.412

But there's a weird place where video games get where it's like enough of a, of a player base to be popular and to probably make some money, but not enough to actually support ongoing effort for developers, you know? And so like businesses come in and, and ruin the fun. So, yeah.

Well, Anchor's also gone now. Spotify basically buys stuff and then –

Oh, that's amazing. I was a Gages customer. Yep. That's awesome. That was. Dot ES, right? Yeah. Dot ES. Yeah. Yeah. Which was against Google Analytics, right? It was like, it was cooler looking.

Yeah. It was worth the, what was the price on that sucker?

But that one's not sticky because it's so easy to switch, right? You just, you know, new JavaScript snippet and you're out.

Yeah.

So for our listeners' sake, Dan Benjamin, creator, founder of 5x5.tv, which is a podcast network that we were once on back in the yesteryear before we went to this platform. So when Adam said, I can't imagine running on somebody else's platform, I'm like, well, we have done it before, but we've been free for so long, it's hard for us to imagine going back.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

1570.18

Right. He built Fireside probably out of the code from 5x5, which I think was also a Rails app. And so that was something that he had dogfooded, so to speak, for years and decided to create a hosting platform and created a successful one. In the meantime, there has been a lot more people offering podcast hosting. Yeah, I mean, a lot. And even both in the small and in the large.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

1594.79

So you have the big players like Spotify giving it away for free, but then you have, I would say, fireside competitors like Transistor who are killing it in the marketplace. I think Transistor, in terms of features, we are Transistor users through our partner podcasts, which we help produce Big Tent for Grafana, for instance. And we host their Big Tent podcast on Transistor.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

1614.48

And so I'm familiar with the feature set and the offerings of that platform. And it's just really good. Shout out to... Is it Justin Jackson? Justin Jackson, yeah. Yeah, Justin Jackson. Shout out to Justin Jackson, who's probably been on our shows as well, I think.

Okay, so a very long time.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

1632.153

He's been out there building Transistor. Started later than Dan, but... actively building that. So when you acquire something like this, of course, I guess with this one, it's your first time. So how do you know what you're going to do? But what's the strategy?

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

1644.442

Is it just like, I'm going to maintain it and just continue to, you know, get maybe a little bit of growth, maybe not, but it's making money right now. Is it like all in, we're going to take it? you know, to the moon? What are you thinking when you buy this?

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

2168.024

So five years to pay it off with no growth to me sounds like a pretty good deal. How do you value such a piece of software, a business? How do you value a business like that? How do you guys come to that price?

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

3554.102

So you're open to current acquisitions. Like if somebody had a, has a rail SAS that they were thinking about selling, like you would, you'd hear them out, even though you're not actively looking right now.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

3566.657

They wouldn't let you bet the farm. That's the problem.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

3571.222

Yeah.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

3674.665

Mm hmm. So your strategy is buy and hold. You mentioned that box out has had multiple acquisition attempts, one that you were ready to receive or take. Have you considered buy and flip not to reuse flipper pun, but like you could fix this up for five years and 10 X your, your equity, you know, just make it worth way more and find a new home for it. Have you considered that as a strategy?

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

3820.957

So what if we just created- Well, you just bought, so you definitely don't have to sell right now. Exactly. And we could probably, but yeah. You very much feel like you're in buy mode right now. Like you would love, you just bought and you're thinking about buying more. You're not thinking about selling anything. Yes.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

3833.445

But maybe five years from now, you're thinking, because at a certain point, like Dan Benjamin, you know, we kind of get worn out or done. I'm not sure Dan's motivations, but he didn't want it anymore. He built it. He got a great business off the ground, very difficult thing to do. And eventually, He was looking for a new home for that.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

3850.337

And a lot of us small business software people find ourselves in that situation of like, how do I exit this? Because, and what you're doing is you're collecting other people's exits. And then I wonder like, well, how do you then later exit that thing? Cause you're gonna have a bunch of holdings.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

3867.452

Yeah, it's like tiny. Yeah, I like tiny models as well.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

3969.616

Well, we know he sold Castro because we've did a show with Castro, the fellow who bought Castro. Yeah. Castro was what he sold. So, okay. The model of buy makes sense, but aren't we talking about the eventual exit?

I don't know. You may not know this, Sean, but this is the second lily pad analogy that Adam has done in the last month.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

4808.82

What if you come across a SaaS app that has just an excellent business going on at a great price and you're friends with the owner and they just can't do it anymore? Yeah. It's not a Rails app.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

4834.444

Yeah.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

4835.074

Okay, but if it's not Ruby, so it can be like a Sinatra thing. I'm not sure. Yeah, that'd be fine. Are people still building Sinatra things? I don't know.

You might be giving more credence to frog decision-making than they actually put into it. I think they're more intuitive than all this thought that you're putting into it. Sure.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

4974.32

Yeah. Like what I do in other language or not. Like, well, if the business was right, like I was just trying to feel like what's more important to you.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

5062.934

Let me give you another hypothetical. This is in a different direction. Let's imagine you come across a new business. All the other things I just said are true. It is a Rails app, but you're out of money. Now at a certain point, this is what cashflow people do is they run out of money.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

5078.73

They got cashflow every month, but they can't, they can no longer acquire because all they're doing is cashflow businesses. And so usually then they open up to more people's money. Is that something that you've considered?

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

515.903

Because that was a pretty good summary.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

527.855

Did it add any herniated discs or that was accurate already? Number three, right?

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

5300.876

Makes sense. I just like to hear the ideas and think about them in my head. So I'm sure we are listening. No, I don't know if that's a good idea or not, but it's not something that I had ever heard. So certainly interesting.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

5328.849

Well, I wonder if you'd ever like start a fund or something, you know, like become...

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

5465.409

It happens. Yeah.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

5481.522

Yeah, I mean, you got to do that math. You got to do the worst case, best case. And then you also need to do the what's more likely stuff, right? Yeah. We can't live in worst case and best case world though. We tend to make bad decisions if we just do those two.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

He gave you the lily pad metaphor. What else do you need? He called you Keaton Feldspar. Gosh, yes.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

5583.14

Oh, why don't we turn our thing into a hosting thing?

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

5595.052

Heck yeah. I've always thought, I guess maybe I'm always less impressed with what we've built than maybe other people would be, so I discount it. That might be one part of it. The other part of it is... is that another job that we want? Because now you basically have two jobs, right? And maybe it is. And maybe it becomes the main thing.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

5611.665

I'm certain that if we came across a business model that we both liked, and a software product that we could build, we could somehow use what we've currently built in order to promote that thing and make that the new thing that replaces this thing. But Is that what we want to do? Do we want to have a different kind of life? I don't know.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

5629.294

You know, like if that thing comes across, maybe I would say, yes, let's try it. Let's go for it. But so far, all of our ideas have kind of been like, meh. Yeah. Maybe it would work. But now.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

5662.868

Yeah. But also, it's our stuff, and you're listening to our show because you like our stuff, so it's more of what you like. Yeah. So, I mean, there's... There's strategy about that. You want to do it right. Everything we do, we want to do right.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

5682.321

Which is our main thing is saying that to each other. Let's keep the main thing the main thing.

So we have our little sayings. Of course, we're podcasters. We say stuff to each other. You know, we have sayings. It's so good. I love that. It's like kind of having like your own little utility functions that you use, you know? Yeah. Oh, yeah. We have our little sayings like this whole Silicon Valley thing.

See, now we all want in on the Keenan Feldspar, you know, the fund. That's why we're trying to get him to a place where he's got to take our money and give us some cash flow back.

Yeah. So speaking of conferences, let's close with this. Give us a quick rails world recap because this is your first conference back or you've been doing a few of these.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

The Moneyball approach (Interview)

6009.506

Right, right, right. Coming back to the server side. And I do think that Rails is having a bit of a comeback of late. Yeah. renewed fervor, renewed people talking about it who wouldn't who weren't previously talking about it. Good, bad or indifferent. They're talking about it again. And I did see some of the real world vibe remotely via social networks.

#define: piggyback (Friends)

1023.939

Yes, please. This is due to the nature of the root word cav or atus, which means to be in a cave that is virtually impossible of collapsing. Let's go with that one. Okay. It's a very good fake if that's not real, isn't it? Adam picks that one. Well, let's start right there. Adam thinks cavarite means...

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

#define: piggyback (Friends)

1047.988

When used in a sentence, it's often used with the word cave. I don't know. He wrote it himself. That's your own one. So you both made me read it, and then you selected it, and you get zero points. It's just too good.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

#define: piggyback (Friends)

1059.684

I don't understand the logic to that one.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

#define: piggyback (Friends)

1071.288

Thomas thought maybe cabaret meant somebody who stays out at night. Taylor wrote that one, so one point for Taylor.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

#define: piggyback (Friends)

1078.431

And Taylor thought it was the Bridgerton hat, but that one was Matt's. So one point for Matt. Boomtown band.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

#define: piggyback (Friends)

1086.68

That was a very good one. How do you pronounce that word? Bridgette Biscowett? I don't know. I just put in loads of letters and left it for you to worry about. You're making my job harder over here. Yep. And then almost a pile on, but not quite, Carol and Matt both went with a fictional material that has the ability to negate the force of gravity. That is Cavarite, first depicted by H.G.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

#define: piggyback (Friends)

1105.265

Wells in his 1901 scientific romance, The First Men in the Moon. So Carol and Matt both scored two points there, giving Matt three for the round. Carol two, Taylor one, Adam and... Thomas with zero. I also scored zero. I did not mention that caveat. If nobody picks the correct definition, I score three points for the round, which I'm at a zero.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

#define: piggyback (Friends)

1132.318

And so after round one, Matt in first with three, Carol with two, Taylor with one. We move now to round two. This is a non-STEM round, so broaden your horizons. And your word for round two is... Gallimaufry. That's spelled G-A-L-L-I-M-A-U-F-R-Y. Gallimaufry.

Meanwhile, Carol went for the long one, the LLM one, and Adam piggybacked, which is not exactly a pile on. It's more of a piggyback, which might need a song of its own. But they're correct. So that is the actual definition of the tagline for fire crawl. It turns your entire website into LLM ready markdown or structured data.

My outcome was I loaded the URL into my clipboard on my iPhone, opened up Overcast, add podcast via URL, did that, clicked add URL, and it says not a valid URL. Does yours have a start date? No. Okay. I don't think so.

Right. Okay, next question then. This is a UX question. I am not a plus plus subscriber, but I can click the option and I assume it does nothing to say this feed should contain plus plus ad free extended audio. I haven't clicked play because I just literally loaded it for the first time now, but I'm assuming that I won't have plus plus content because I'm not a plus plus subscriber. Is that true?

No, I do have plus plus content.

Okay. So the copy can be updated pretty easily. It's probably a fix going on already for that because it's so simple. For the ships, it'll be out there. Good. Well, because I mean, I was like, well, how do I get this URL to my iPhone? I guess I can like copy it and like airdrop it to my iPhone. Maybe it'll open up in the browser.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

2584.602

And I was like, well, let me just go on the web and, you know, get URL essentially.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

2629.881

Yeah, I agree. It kind of requires some workaround. There's really nothing you can do about that, right? I mean, you're adding literally a custom feed via URL that no index knows about. So it's obvious you have to do some sort of workaround to get there, to get your feed into your... Yeah, I mean, a better UX would be...

Yeah, I like that idea a lot. Email them every time it changes that they go upon creation and now that is immutable until, well, theoretically mutable until they edit it again and then it's muted. You know? So it's in stone. Yeah, it's mutated.

Listeners, you could do this too. You can follow these same instructions. It is in Maine. I think it's Friday, September 6th. Okay. Jared posted it as a reply to after that conversation. Now we're trying out Zulip in earnest. And there's a link that says join Zulip here. And it's a long link that I could read on the air, but no one would ever hand type that in. I agree.

You can put it in the show notes though. So it might be there. So there you go. Yeah. We've shared our thoughts already elsewhere on friends with this, but you know, I'll be, I'd be curious. We'll be so many Kaizen's away. Well, at least one more Kaizen away multiple months before we get Gerhards.

Well, the flow, it seems, is every time new code is pushed to our primary branch on the repository, a new deploy is queued up. And this process happens for each new commit to the primary branch. A new application is spun up, it's promoted, so if I deploy slash push new code, and then a minute later Jared does the same thing... My push does this process. My application is promoted.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

3531.142

Jared's commit does the same thing. His application is then promoted. And that's via networking. And then these old machines are just, you know, like thrown off and then the new machines are promoted and they just fall by the wayside. Correct. Which totally makes sense. I think you have things happening that we want to happen.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

I agree with you on the low hanging fruit, but on the app boot process, we've got even things like 1Password being those things being injected from their CLI. I'd imagine that API call is not strenuous, but it's probably seconds, right? Yeah.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

3564.073

So there's probably in each thing we're booting up as part of the app boot process for every commit, there's at least one to several seconds per thing we're instantiating upon boot. Well, that's just me hypothesizing how things work.

Is it the CPUs then that's impacting it, you think? Like the CPUs and the horsepower behind the build test?

I think the question I have is, you know, while the thresholds are low and we're below our overallocation, you know, what should we expect? And this is good news. This is good news that we're not.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

4257.591

Gotcha. Yeah. I'm in the dashboard too, and I'm looking at a different section of that same monitoring section, which is like rows. I believe rows being added, which is kind of cool because over time you can kind of see your database updates essentially deleted, updated, inserted. So there's definitely obviously activity. We're aware of that.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

4275.909

I think the other things that we should pay attention to in terms of is it working for us as expected is, I would say some of that is potentially on you, Jared, and you too, Gerhard, is that we've got the idea of branching. Gerhard, I know that you're familiar with it because you demonstrated some of this last time we talked, but being able to integrate some of those futuristic, let's just say,

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

4303.011

features into a database platform. This is managed. It's serverless. We don't have to manage it. We get a great dashboard. We get the opportunity for branches. Have you been using branches, Jared? Do you need to use branches? Does that workflow not matter to you? I think that's the DX and the performance is the two things I think I care about.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

4416.627

And so the idea would be to just automate some of that, not have to go through all the steps. Still do the CLI installation like any normal user would. Correct. But maybe a neon setup script that probably populates a file with credentials or something.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

4451.377

Speaking of one password, did you notice their new SDKs? Is that, did you pay attention to their new SDKs they deployed? TypeScript, Go, a couple others for native integrations. Obviously we're Elixir, so it doesn't really matter to us, but maybe in some of the Go pipelining, I know you've probably done. Would it make sense to skip OP and go straight to Go with the SDK? Yeah.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

4472.534

Because OP is their CLI, right? It's same. It's not an SDK. The SDK lets you native integrate into the language.

I like this. I mean, I did run just in our repository. You get contribute, deps, dev, install. These are all the actions or recipes. Correct. Install, Postgres down, Postgres up, tests. And each of those have a little hashtag next to it, which is a comment, essentially, of what the recipe does.

I was just thinking about expiring because we just did this yesterday where we had to correct a deployed slash published episode. And we ran into a scenario where FASC was caching, obviously, because it's the CDN. And then I went into the FASC service and purged that URL. And then it wasn't doing what we expected. And I bailed on it and handed it to Jared.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

842.914

And Jared checked into R2 and R2 was also caching. And so we essentially had this scenario where our application was not telling the CDN that this content is new, expire the old, purge, et cetera. And I just wonder, in most cases, aside from the application generating new feeds, which happens usually at the action of a user, so me, Jared, somebody else publishes an episode or republishes,

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

873.826

Couldn't the expiry command, so to speak, come from that action and inform the CDN?

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

916.187

I see. So the question was mechanically how to actually purge the cache, not so much when.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Kaizen! Just do it (Friends)

933.877

Yeah. Otherwise you don't do it. Please don't. It doesn't make any sense. Change hasn't happened, so don't change. Okay. How plausible is this pipe dream? Should we rename it to something else because it's not a pipe dream anymore or less of a pipe dream? Yeah. Obviously, I'm not suggesting that naturally, but like it becomes real. Does it become an oxymoron when it becomes real?
