Plaud1:42-2:18
Analyze them against my three businesses, the syndicate, my fund and programs like Launch Festival, and the Launch Accelerator and against my media business This Week in Startups, This Week in AI. Take Chamath's knowledge and analyze my businesses with every drop of knowledge he does. I just had this idea. Take Chamath's knowledge and put it against my businesses. It's like getting Chamath as a consultant, and that's all enabled by Plaud. You have to applaud Plaud for making such a world class device.

Adding a new member to your team is a crucial decision. You don't want to rush into a hiring situation that you will regret. But if you're a busy founder, you also don't want to spend a ton of time in the trenches looking for that perfect candidate. Instead, you need a partner and you need a trusted partner. And LinkedIn Hiring Pro is that partner. I use LinkedIn Hiring Pro myself. We recently hired a new customer success manager. They handle all the advertising accounts here on This Week in Startups and ensure that we're keeping all of our wonderful partners happy. LinkedIn helped us connect with an amazing candidate right here in Austin, and he had exactly the combination of experience we were looking for. It's magic. It's alchemy. It's everything when it comes to finding a great team member. So hire right the first time. Get started by posting your job for free at linkedin.com/twist. Terms and conditions apply.

Plod's amazing. We're doing, one of the things Lon and I do is we run the show. We run the show through Plod and ask it to analyze the show. Great templates. Yeah, we were playing around with the templates like you can sort of set up. It's like a prompt. It's prompt engineering. You can tell it in advance. I want you to listen to this and then pull out these kind of quotes or turn it into an interview, you know, Q&A style and it'll just do it. It's very cool. So check it out at plod.ai slash twist.

Sentry9:55-10:44
You've built a product, everything's working great. Then real users start flooding in and suddenly it all breaks. What a disaster. You need to get it back up and running and you got to do that fast. You're looking like an amateur. That's why you need a partner like Sentry. Applications can break in many different ways, but Sentry sees everything. You'll get all the relevant details like stack traces, commits, releases, and even the developers who push that problem code in the first place. With Sentry, you're not going to be jumping around between different tools trying to figure out what happened. And Sear, Sentry's AI debugging agent, uses all this data and context to identify the root cause of the problem and suggest a fix. It can even take a look at your code before it ships. I'll see you next time. Uncle J. Cal sent you.

Every time we see a revolution in how software is built and used, one company ends up owning the infrastructure that everyone else depends on. The next great platform is being built right now. That company is DigitalOcean, and they just launched their AI native cloud. This is not just another place to rent GPUs or a hyperscaler overwhelming you with features and services. but leaving you on your own to patch it all together. No, we're talking about a full stack platform that comes pre-assembled and that sends you just one bill at the end of the month. WorkAuto runs a trillion automated workloads on DigitalOcean with 67% lower inference cost, 9% lower latency, and it's two times faster to production.

Let's take a pause here for Plaud. I'm going to take my Plaud, which I have on my wrist here. When I ski, I just press that button. I don't know how waterproof the Plaud is. I could have gone e-foiling today, and I would have had this recorded. It was pretty brutal. I just did it. The red light went on. Now I'm recording the show. I take action items, notes. Hey JCal, wear long pants, wear a wetsuit next time so you don't get scraped. Whatever it is. Plaud's amazing. One of the things Lon and I do is we run the show through Plaud and ask it to analyze the show. It has great templates. We were playing around with the templates.
