| Xe here. As a sibling comment said, I didn't survive layoffs. If you're looking for someone like me, I'm on the market! |

| I'm several steps removed from day-to-day engineering at this point; the team working on this is much better than I am. It's just a very hard problem; biting it off is something you can certainly blame me for, though. (Also: not a legend, just loud.) |

| ▲ | benreesman 3 days ago | parent [-] | | I may be the minority on this view, but I think that it's possible to be both a recognized expert aka legend and loud ("visible" might be a kinder word). When you talk technology, I listen, and I doubt I'm alone in that. Keep up the good work with fly.io! |

| I want to believe, but in the meantime they’re killing the product I’ve been working hard to build trust with my own customers though. There is a limit to my idealism, and it’s well and truly in the past. |

| I suspect that making a cloud service provider run reliably requires tons of grunt work more than it requires technical heroism from a small number of highly talented individuals. |

| FWIW Xe was let go from Fly earlier this year during a round of layoffs. |
