We see things the same way we work through the disagreement or the misunderstanding we're talking across each other.
And then you work much better together.
And so things like that, I think are really quite important.
Yeah, well, so I mean, there's lots of interesting people, as you can tell.
I'm, you know, hard to deal with, too.
You're one of the most lovable people.
So there's different philosophies in building teams.
For me, and so some people say, hire 10x programmers, and that's the only thing, whatever that means, right?
What I believe in is building well-balanced teams.
teams that have people that are different in them.
Like if you have all generals and no troops, or all troops and no generals, or you have all people that think in one way and not the other way, what you get is you get a very biased and skewed and weird situation where people end up being unhappy.
And so what I like to do is I like to build teams of people where they're not all the same.
You know, we do have teams and they're focused on like runtime or compiler GPU or whatever the speciality is.
But people bring a different take and have a different perspective.
And I look for people that complement each other.
And particularly if you look at leadership teams and things like this, you don't want everybody thinking the same way.
You want people bringing different perspectives and experiences.
And so I think that's really important.
Oh, I mean, so many.
Like, so one of the things I love about, okay, so Modular is the first company I built from scratch.
