Shopify on Lex Fridman Podcast
#498 – Anthony Kaldellis: Roman Empire, Byzantine Empire, Rise & Fall of Empires
Transcript
This episode is also brought to you by Shopify, a platform designed for anyone to sell anywhere with a great looking online store. I have not been using social media much, so I have not seen what Toby and DHH have been writing much. I haven't been watching anything. I've been reading books. I have been thinking, and I've been using agents a lot. But I need to tune in because Toby, the CEO of Shopify, always give him praise. DHH, I think, is on the board. I don't know. But he's the man behind Ruby on Rails, which is the engine behind a lot of the Shopify engineering. You can go check out some of the incredible stuff they blog about on the engineering front. That's not what this ad read is supposed to be about. I'm supposed to tell you to open a store, and it's supposed to be easy, and they make it easy. I set up a store to sell shirts, but the engineering behind it – back to the real stuff – that's the incredible stuff. From the very top in Toby to every single engineer – I've met a bunch of them in Europe. Just a great team building great infrastructure that at scale has to deliver with low latency and make it fun to program. And now I'll make it fun to program for agents. You can sign up for a $1 per month trial period at shopify.com/lux.
