small personal investor in Blacksmith, big congrats to the team on the raise! The traction has been insane, and Aditya Jayaprakash and team have been maniacal about their execution.🚀🚀🚀 Somewhat biased, but Aditya Jayaprakash also has exceptional taste in books :)
I know Gabriel Guerra is on this team, and working on making CI better is one of those tides that lift all boats.
Blacksmith Hands down the best CI improvement one can make.
Thanks to everyone for stopping by the Blacksmith Series A party! Shoutout to the Waterloo crew for making an appearance

What does Blacksmith do? How does it work? Why did we throw out AWS and Docker and build our own infra stack from scratch? Aayush Shah sat down with Erik Nordlander, General Partner at Google Ventures, to discuss the details under the hood of Blacksmith.
Blacksmith is 10/10 btw
Blacksmith is like really really fast Im enjoying my 20 second CI runs
