Got fired as a founding engineer from Lapis Labs... but got rehired as head of growth! All the paperwork had me feeling stressed, so I took off to Japan for the week!

At Lapis we do 996. 9 head of growths 9 yachts 6 million in monthly burn

Based. I want to join this company so bad

Proud to be in the growth team (after being fired as a founding engineer)

Folks, please overwhelm our infra. The former founding engineer (now head of growth) spent days and nights making sure we can analyze millions of prompts a day. I want the sign ups to be overwhelming so that he can be hired back as a founding engineer

We analyze millions of prompts so that internet is free from blogslop

don’t really understand what Lapis Labs is, but everyone on my timeline keeps getting hired by them?? well they just offered me a new vehicle if i become their 11th head of growth. so now i drive this:

Talking to mere intelligence is not enough, let us truely understands its phenomenology; its sense of being in a world very different from ours. An ode to understanding how other intelligences scale, sense, and sort the world.

we had a very successful launch for @trylapis i love growing grow m0ar

ok, why has nobody ever told me that redis stands for remote dictionary server? they cooked on that naming

building a product is basically an excercise on how well you understand what kind of query your user ask and your user's query pattern

Don't forget to appreciate your best engineer

he tried to leave the office because aws is down

i read this multiple times and i still dont understand it

I don't believe we are near AGI if we still couldn't get LLM that reliably return a valid JSON

Codex is 10 IQ points higher than Claude on most task except when it comes to database I don't know what Claude team is training it with but its just giga brain when it comes to databases

They should show demo on AWS console and I believe in AGI is coming soon

As a NYC maximalist, I have to admit that 1) SF people are at least 5 IQ points higher 2) SFO has unmatched aura
