longshot VS m3o

Email: [email protected]

Hey HN. I'm a principal engineer, previously worked w/ FullStory building the mobile analytics library from scratch in Rust, Objective C and Java, including a TypeScript-based playback front-end.

I also helped Nickelodeon with their transition from Flash to HTML5 in the iPad days, building games and a high-scale multiplayer backend in node.js.

I'm primarily looking for a good, small-to-medium team to work with. I enjoy working on developer-facing tooling (either as a product, or internally to make teams more productive). I'd love to do low-level firmware work on interesting products. Working with JIT/compilers would also be a blast. I enjoy greenfield engineering and research, and I'm happy to tackle any interesting problems in virtually any space (excluding web3/crypto, however).

My preference for work these days is Rust, and the last few months I've been working on a CLI/web interface for my coffee maker:

If you haven't tried Jadx [1], give it a shot. It's by far the easiest way to reverse Android APKs. I doesn't do patching or reassembly, but I used it for reversing the Delong'hi APK for longshot [2][3] and the quality of output was fantastic.

Sorry what I meant is I've been working on the open source Micro project for 8 years which underpins this. The chat app itself was not really something I meant as being open source but yes it's in a separate repo with the API hosting product I built called M3O.com.

Spent the last 10 years mostly working with microservices and Go based startups, although I would not recommend microservices to most companies. I can save you a few million dollars if you wonder why.

I'm most passionate about improving DevEx in companies. Things like writing custom ORMs for lesser known/supported databases (see eg. https://github.com/gocassa/gocassa). Mostly worked with startups from $2M-$500M funding range, with the occasional enterprise gig.

Used to run a chicken shop as a hobby project which made me careful of accepting management positions, haha, people are hard. I would love to be a product owner, I mostly designed the https://m3o.com/ product with the CEO recently and implemented the MVP of it. It's open source stuff, check it out https://github.com/m3o

Currently working for a US startup but my contract is ending soon.

Cheers!

It's like API indexing, I like it. I started M3O (https://m3o.com) with this idea of API aggregation for absolutely everything but not specifically indexing, more so providing a uniform access layer to all things with one API token. The programmability of Nango will definitely a be a selling point. For the founders, focus on that, double down on that. The ability to program the APIs and the data retrieved is really key.

What if any is the relationship between https://m3o.com/ and https://micro.dev/ ?

Nocode poses a really interesting movement towards rapid prototyping end user facing apps but I think when it comes to functionality, there's always some need to drop into the escape hatch to make that API call or manipulate some javascript. I've been noticing more people using https://m3o.com for that especially with things like Adalo. There's 70+ APIs that can be used with one API token. Super useful. Also on the lookout for other API providers who make it easier to embed those apis.

We can potentially do this on https://m3o.com. It doesn't exist yet but would make sense as the next service we offer. Further details would be useful e.g endpoints required.
