[1705.78 --> 1706.56] Oh, if...
[1706.56 --> 1707.56] Are you going to Keep Con Chicago?
[1707.80 --> 1708.64] I'll drag him over.
[1709.92 --> 1711.12] Let's talk off mic.
[1711.44 --> 1712.24] I got ideas.
[1712.24 --> 1714.12] All right.
[1714.18 --> 1714.62] Thanks, Jeff.
[1714.90 --> 1715.50] Thank you all.
[1732.28 --> 1733.16] What's up, friends?
[1733.26 --> 1736.20] I'm here in the breaks with one of our sponsors, Raycast.
[1736.20 --> 1740.78] I'm here with Thomas Paul Mann, the co-founder and CEO of Raycast.
[1740.78 --> 1744.72] So, Thomas, I recently moved from Alfred to Raycast.
[1744.86 --> 1750.40] I'm on the ProPlan, loving the AI integrations and everything else helped me to be productive.
[1750.82 --> 1753.90] Also helped you launch the ProPlan recently on ChangeLaw News.
[1753.98 --> 1754.54] That was awesome.
[1754.92 --> 1758.14] But what I want to know is why you built Raycast in the first place.
[1758.54 --> 1763.54] I think software, as we experience, is flawed and inefficient.
[1764.04 --> 1766.36] And I know this is a pretty big and bold statement,
[1766.36 --> 1770.30] but this is really where the idea from Raycast comes from.
[1770.70 --> 1773.62] Because when you think about it, when you interact with a computer,
[1773.98 --> 1776.78] you have a certain action in your mind that you want to do.
[1777.10 --> 1782.14] To perform that, you need to translate that into clicks and keystrokes on a computer.
[1782.50 --> 1783.78] And that isn't really intuitive.
[1783.94 --> 1785.70] That's not how we used to work.
[1785.76 --> 1788.44] When we crap something in the real world, we just crap it and do it.
[1788.58 --> 1791.32] There is no communication or something like that necessary.
[1791.32 --> 1794.92] But somehow we got used to that this is how software works.
[1795.20 --> 1796.10] And we work around that.
[1796.44 --> 1800.96] It kind of works, but I feel really it's an inefficient way to use a computer.
[1801.46 --> 1803.74] So with Raycast, we re-envisioned that and we said,
[1804.08 --> 1806.76] what is if I could use all my tools in a single interface?
[1807.12 --> 1807.86] They look the same.
[1807.96 --> 1808.94] They behave the same.
[1809.30 --> 1810.72] I'm super efficient at it.
[1810.78 --> 1812.32] I just enter what I want to do.
[1812.66 --> 1815.38] Everything is driven by the keyboard, which I'm used to as a developer.
[1815.68 --> 1820.02] We basically started building exactly that and started with the basics of like,
[1820.02 --> 1822.02] what if I could launch an application?
[1822.42 --> 1823.58] That's an easy task, right?
[1823.82 --> 1826.16] What if I could find a file that I'm looking for?
[1826.46 --> 1827.24] Okay, that's nice.
[1827.50 --> 1829.64] But at some point we reached in the threshold where we said,
[1829.76 --> 1834.86] oh, but now I need to create a JIRA issue or see my assigned issues and change the status.
[1835.22 --> 1836.80] That is where it gets really interesting.
[1837.26 --> 1841.02] It quickly became clear to us like, wow, okay, there is actually demand for that.
[1841.02 --> 1845.14] That was really the start of Raycast where we felt this is something special.
[1845.32 --> 1847.22] There are like so many people want to be more productive.
[1847.74 --> 1849.84] They want to have a great tool that they can use.
[1850.02 --> 1854.08] But they're also willing to put in a bit of work of maybe integrating with their own
[1854.08 --> 1856.34] services that we don't have support for now.
[1856.96 --> 1857.26] Okay, cool.
[1857.42 --> 1861.82] So one of the things that stood out to me for your homepage when kind of learning about
[1861.82 --> 1868.24] Raycast and discovering what it can do, it says in big bold letters on the homepage,
[1868.64 --> 1870.36] supercharge your productivity.
[1870.68 --> 1872.76] Why is that the leading statement for Raycast?
[1873.26 --> 1873.42] Yeah.
[1873.42 --> 1878.44] So for us, productivity is like, it's very hard to measure if you look down for it.
[1878.68 --> 1880.60] People say they can do something faster.
[1881.18 --> 1884.62] People say they're more productive, but it's very hard to quantify.
[1885.14 --> 1890.70] So we thought, hey, we have a tool that generally just makes you more productive in many different
[1890.70 --> 1891.14] ways.
[1891.14 --> 1893.36] So it supercharges your productivity.
[1893.36 --> 1894.92] It brings us to the next level.
[1894.92 --> 1898.04] You like just can do things much faster than anybody else.
[1898.04 --> 1900.52] You can interact with your tools quicker.
[1900.98 --> 1903.14] You're basically like operating on a different level.
[1903.36 --> 1907.44] There's always the saying of a 10x developer, which can do things a lot faster, right?
[1907.66 --> 1913.06] So it goes along those lines where when you see people using a Mac with Raycast, they use
[1913.06 --> 1916.30] a Mac differently to somebody that uses a Mac without Raycast.
[1916.70 --> 1917.02] Okay.
[1917.02 --> 1922.32] So if you're on a Mac and you want to be productive, you owe it to yourself to try Raycast.
[1922.44 --> 1923.24] You can try it free.
[1923.56 --> 1925.38] Almost everything they have is free.
[1925.38 --> 1929.48] I mean, lots, I mean, I told him Thomas, you kind of give away too much for free, but
[1929.48 --> 1930.96] Hey, that's, that's their choice.
[1930.96 --> 1931.28] Right.
[1931.52 --> 1936.92] But if you want to be productive on a Mac Raycast, if you're using a launcher for using
[1936.92 --> 1942.94] spotlight or anything like it, Raycast will take you to a whole new level.
[1943.20 --> 1944.10] I'm using it.
[1944.18 --> 1944.80] I love it.
[1945.00 --> 1945.82] I think you should check it out.
[1946.06 --> 1950.02] Go to Raycast.com again, Raycast.com.
[1955.38 --> 1978.34] So the Kubernetes API, that's what you work on, right?
[1978.52 --> 1979.46] I work on CLI.
[1979.58 --> 1980.02] CLI.
[1980.02 --> 1980.74] Oh, the CLI.
[1980.74 --> 1980.94] Yeah.
[1981.14 --> 1981.36] Okay.
[1981.42 --> 1983.96] That's a, you know, it's an abstraction of that, right?
[1983.98 --> 1986.04] You're actually interfacing with the API.
[1986.04 --> 1987.92] We're probably the biggest consumer of the API.
[1987.92 --> 1988.26] All right.
[1988.44 --> 1988.70] Okay.
[1989.16 --> 1989.78] What is that?
[1989.86 --> 1990.48] How's it work?
[1990.68 --> 1995.14] So are you familiar with how the Kubernetes project is broken up into special interest
[1995.14 --> 1995.36] groups?
[1995.36 --> 1995.66] School me.
[1995.82 --> 1996.16] School me.
[1996.24 --> 1996.38] Yeah.
