[2087.16 --> 2089.34] on your gopher sizes, John.
[2089.38 --> 2091.38] I think it looks like Ashley-esque, but it could
[2091.38 --> 2092.10] be someone else.
[2092.22 --> 2092.74] Yeah, it's not me.
[2092.84 --> 2096.34] I think that one was Marcus Olson is who I want
[2096.34 --> 2096.60] to say.
[2096.76 --> 2097.88] Yes, it was.
[2098.06 --> 2098.36] Oh.
[2098.36 --> 2098.84] Yes.
[2099.26 --> 2100.50] I was going to say Ashley's who introduced me
[2100.50 --> 2102.56] to him, but I've actually gotten into the habit
[2102.56 --> 2104.64] of, so Ashley's usually really, really swamped.
[2105.04 --> 2106.92] So I've gotten into the habit of trying to find
[2106.92 --> 2109.68] different artists for all of the courses because
[2109.68 --> 2111.36] I like them to have a slightly unique feel.
[2111.86 --> 2114.52] So like the testing course was Egon Elbrey, and I
[2114.52 --> 2117.30] have an algorithms course that I'm working on that
[2117.30 --> 2118.94] is another gopher in the community.
[2119.36 --> 2120.38] I think it's Adrian.
[2120.62 --> 2122.18] I'm drawing a blank on his last name though.
[2122.36 --> 2124.18] And then I have another artist who's working on
[2124.18 --> 2125.96] another course that's way down the pipeline.
[2125.96 --> 2127.86] So like I'm trying to like use different artists
[2127.86 --> 2129.48] for all of them because I think it's cool to have
[2129.48 --> 2130.78] different people drawing gophers.
[2131.34 --> 2133.68] And I know that Ashley's just overwhelmed with
[2133.68 --> 2133.88] stuff.
[2133.98 --> 2135.82] So it's like, I don't want to like keep bugging
[2135.82 --> 2136.06] her.
[2136.32 --> 2138.96] But it just goes to show that I think when you are
[2138.96 --> 2142.08] making content, whether that is for beginners or
[2142.08 --> 2145.64] for anyone, you know, we are not a black and white
[2145.64 --> 2146.68] or gray world, right?
[2146.70 --> 2149.20] We are a world of color and we like visuals and we
[2149.20 --> 2152.22] like fun and we want, we learn better when we feel
[2152.22 --> 2153.60] we're at play, right?
[2153.60 --> 2156.30] So I remember Richard Feynman talking about how he
[2156.30 --> 2159.28] bottled burnout and won a Nobel prize for his
[2159.28 --> 2160.16] Feynman techniques.
[2160.16 --> 2161.96] We're kind of veering into physics, but still
[2161.96 --> 2162.84] learning for beginners.
[2162.84 --> 2164.98] And he always said, just keep a sense of play
[2164.98 --> 2165.40] about you.
[2165.44 --> 2168.08] And Ashley, that's what I love about the gophers
[2168.08 --> 2170.14] that you bring to the table and to the community.
[2170.46 --> 2172.96] And so anyway, Jared Santa, who's also part of the
[2172.96 --> 2175.84] changelog crew said that they do an ELI five and
[2175.84 --> 2178.66] explain it like you're five on the sister podcast
[2178.66 --> 2179.30] JS party.
[2179.58 --> 2181.54] That would be a great segment for go time.
[2181.54 --> 2183.82] So if any of you are down to come back and do a
[2183.82 --> 2186.72] repeat, but for four or five year olds by our inner
[2186.72 --> 2189.08] five year olds, I'd love to do that episode.
[2189.32 --> 2189.88] That'd be awesome.
[2190.14 --> 2190.42] Yeah.
[2190.48 --> 2190.70] Yeah.
[2190.70 --> 2190.98] Same.
[2191.04 --> 2191.80] I'm here for it.
[2197.50 --> 2200.52] This episode is brought to you by our friends at
[2200.52 --> 2203.60] Acuity, a new platform that brings fully managed Argo
[2203.60 --> 2206.96] CD and enterprise services to the cloud or on premise.
[2206.96 --> 2209.26] And I'm here with two of the co-founders from Acuity,
[2209.56 --> 2212.14] Jesse Suen and Alexander Matrusenchev.
[2212.40 --> 2214.96] So the Acuity platform is in beta right now.
[2215.18 --> 2217.50] You guys have some big ideas you're executing on around
[2217.50 --> 2220.68] Argo CD, managed Argo CD, Kubernetes native application
[2220.68 --> 2222.58] delivery and the power of GitOps.
[2222.64 --> 2224.98] Help me understand the what and the why of what you're
[2224.98 --> 2225.50] doing right now.
[2225.50 --> 2230.10] So we started Acuity because we saw what was happening in the
[2230.10 --> 2232.42] Kubernetes community, the challenges that people were
[2232.42 --> 2234.86] facing about developer experience.
[2235.26 --> 2238.98] And having run Argo CD for Intuit for a couple of years, we
[2238.98 --> 2241.90] knew it took like a small team to build this and scale it and
[2241.90 --> 2244.96] provide a performant solution for the developers.
[2245.46 --> 2248.52] And so at Acuity and the Acuity platform, what we're trying to
[2248.52 --> 2251.38] do is the first thing we're trying to do is actually provide
[2251.38 --> 2255.18] Argo CD as a fully managed solution to our users.
[2255.18 --> 2257.72] But that is just actually the start of things.
[2257.82 --> 2262.70] And we actually want to take the next steps on improving the whole
[2262.70 --> 2265.86] GitOps and developer experience and providing new tools and
[2265.86 --> 2268.66] ecosystems around Argo and the Argo project.
[2269.00 --> 2269.80] Yeah, that's right, Jesse.
[2269.98 --> 2273.96] So Argo CD is just the beginning, but every company eventually
[2273.96 --> 2277.40] needs way more tools integrated into the DevOps platform.
[2277.78 --> 2280.54] And that's what we're hoping to deliver with Acuity platform.
[2281.02 --> 2284.26] So we're hoping to provide a great user interface that enable
[2284.26 --> 2288.00] developers to achieve what they need in a matter of just a few clicks.
[2288.48 --> 2291.34] But we also want to make Argo CD enterprise ready.
[2291.82 --> 2296.80] What that means is our customers will get audits and insightful
[2296.80 --> 2300.36] analytics out of the box without configuring anything.
[2300.86 --> 2302.46] That's what we did at Intuit.
[2302.58 --> 2304.40] And we learned that it was not so easy to do.
[2304.78 --> 2307.60] And that's what we're hoping to solve for multiple organizations.
[2308.12 --> 2308.38] Very cool.
[2308.46 --> 2308.98] Thank you, Jesse.
[2309.14 --> 2309.84] Thank you, Alex.
[2309.84 --> 2313.02] Again, listeners, this is a closed beta.
[2313.30 --> 2313.96] Check it out.
[2314.06 --> 2316.76] Acuity.io slash changelog.
