We discussed their efforts with LibSQL, the challenge of SQLite being in the public domain and not having an opportunity for contribution, their choice to rewrite everything with Limbo, how this all plays into the future of the Terzo platform, how they test Limbo with deterministic simulation testing, also known as DST, and their plan to replace SQLite.

Well, friends, before the show, I'm here with my good friend, David Shu, over at Retool. Now, David, I've known about Retool for a very long time. You've been working with us for many, many years. And speaking of many, many years, Brex is one of your oldest customers. You've been in business almost seven years.

And speaking of many, many years, Brex is one of your oldest customers. You've been in business almost seven years.
I think they've been a customer of yours for almost all those seven years, to my knowledge. But share the story. What do you do for Brex? How does Brex leverage Retool? And why have they stayed with you all these years?

I've been trying so hard to sound better, so thank you.

I think the public domain-ness of SQLite is unique. I think the not open to contribution is also quite unique. Very valid in the, in quotes, open source world. And even... they say on this public domain page they have, where they say warranty of title.

So if you are a company that needed something where you needed to be identified against the copyright infringement or anything happening inside this code base, it gets to be a little bit hairy trying to use SQLite in unique ways beyond. So it kind of makes sense, some of the challenges you had, and maybe the fork made the most sense, but ultimately the rewrite seems to make sense.

the most sense because what you want is the attributes of what SQL offers the world but not the And I don't want to say it like a negative thing because it's great, but it's dominated very well in the marketplace. I mean, it's used on Mars, I believe, right?
