So I left right after Parker left.

So, you know, when Parker was fired from Zenefits, I wrote him an email saying, hey, dude, like, you know, I know you're going to start a company and I want to join you.

And Parker was like, no, no, I'm going to, you know, I'm done.

So that's sort of what kicked off, you know, the rippling thing.

After a month, he was like, yeah, actually, I'm starting a company.

Rippling.

Oh, got it.

There are a bunch of online competitive programs

you know, contests that run, um, top coder is one Google code jam is one.

Um, there is Facebook runs some of those as well.

Um, and they have these algorithmic problems that you need to solve in a short period of time.

And, you know, they have a way to rank people.

So in those contests, I was ranked one in India consistently for a while.

2016.

Quite a bit late.

I think 18 months out.

Um, it's just a large, large build out.

I mean, imagine if Google sort of self-destructed and went under and, you know, bust went bust, there is a huge gap and void in the market that, that it leaves.

Um, so, you know, it involved, uh, building, you know, what Zenefits would have built.

10 years ahead.
