It's been so much fun building together, Ben!
Feels great to put the first products live out there and build in the open :)

🧠 AI isn’t replacing developers — it’s changing where we create value.
Are you spending less time coding and more time reviewing, prompting, and discovering?

Here are few of the gems inside:
4) I told a joke on a Zoom meeting and no one laughed.
Turns out I’m not remotely funny
8) When I get into work I immediately hide.
Good employees are hard to find.
19) I went to a psychic and knocked on her front door.
She yelled, “Who is it?”… so I left.

Enjoy the groans and eye rolls!
These funds give us a strong and long term foundation to build with, and we’ll invest them in helping the AI Native Dev movement succeed through both product and community growth. Check out the early leaders on AI Native DevCon on Nov 21st! - tessl.co/3URgUTA
With that, we get back to building!
I’m humbled by the vote of confidence in our team and mission from these amazing investors. It’s also true recognition of the amazing team we assembled to take this on. They’re a brilliant bunch, while also being fun, caring and driven. I’m massively grateful they’ve chosen to join this journey.
Excited to share @tessl.io has raised $125M, to build out AI Native Software Development!
This includes a $25M Seed from April, led by boldstart & @GV, and a $100M Series A, led by Index with Accel, GV and boldstart participating.

Switched my user to guypo.com, super easy!
Only catch is I haven't updated that domain in forever...
As luck would have it, I’m landing in Boston late on election day. Trusting my Canadian passport will help me escape north if things go sideways…
Now I’m wondering what were your last actions at work…
There should be a horde of dog toy exchanges, where you can leave - for example - one tennis ball and take another.
My dog loves *other dog's* tennis balls at least 10x more...
When I asked it to make it friendlier and smiling, it created a more feminine and pretty awesome other option.
That one got closer to Snyk brand, but we haven’t found a spot to use it in yet :)
My profile pic is Midjourney’s creation when given Snyk’s logo and said “Infused by artificial intelligence”.
It’s really not “on brand” for Snyk, but it’s kinda awesome, so I had to find an excuse to use it :)
Blog posts are perceived as something where accuracy can be low with little negative outcome, thus great for GPT.
In practice, that depends on the blog post, some can have pretty real impact.
All that said - human written posts are very often far from factual…
@jakearchibald.com congrats on the move from Google!
Happy to join the open social revolution :)
Gotta say, it’s weird to start in a new social network from a blank slate…
