We talk about the incredible response to our new job posting and the process that went into. Also we go behind the scenes of our hiring process and how we are evaluating candidates.

We talk about managing schedules and productivity tools. Then we talk about what we're learning about making a really great hiring process.

Brandon officially stops coding, now that Blake has taken over all his coding responsibilities. We talk about our completely broken hiring process and how we are fixing it by starting from first principles. And then we rave about how Superhuman has changed our email lives (we never thought we'd be *that* person).

We discuss our sponsorship of React Miami, the outcomes from that, and how we are evaluating ROI. After some other product and company updates, we talk about switching our Webflow website to Makeswift. And the tradeoffs of code vs nocode marketing sites.

Being a founder is an extreme exercise in focus, prioritization, and discipline. This week we're feeling this more than ever, with so many things to do. We give updates on hiring, Blitz Toolkit, Flightcontrol product updates including preview environments, and comment on the Redwood 1.0 release.

This is the final week of this YC batch, so we reflect on the past three the months, our fast paced fundraising process in the last two weeks, and where we go from here.

Week 10 of YC and life is off the charts! We talk about being human, being fully yourself in important meetings, and how we are cultivating a super healthy cofounder relationship in the midst of chaos.
