Excited to see this come together. If you've ever spent hours logdiving only to realize you forgot to log that one critical bit of info, take a look!
This April 1, we’re excited to introduce our newest product: ⛓ Akita #Logchain ⛓. Like many reputable fashion designers, we’ve decided to “go retro” by adapting technology from the era of Web 0.3 to the age of Web 3.0. akitasoftware.com/blog-posts…

I am @thatplguy and I support this message 😄
Last year, @thatplguy taught himself frontend and has been doing an incredible job. But we want to free him up to do more backend and PL magic! Please help us find a frontend person so Cole can get back to the backend. 🙏

That one trick SaaS providers don't want you to know 😉
Want to script against Notion? Our PM @chriscorcoran writes about our new feature for learning an API spec for ANY website. All you need is Akita and a web browser! akitasoftware.com/blog/2020/…

I joined Akita during lockdown, and everyone here has gone overboard to make me feel part of the team. Super impressed, no regrets. If you want to work on turning cutting-edge research into real, useful tools, please join us!

SUPER excited to start sharing some of the stuff we’re working on. Turns out analyzing APIs is really interesting!
🚀 APIs help things go faster 🤯 BUT APIs also cause an ever-spiraling web of dependencies At Akita, we're cleaning up the API dependency graph--using some out-there applications of PL that turn out to actually work. Would love to hear your thoughts! akitasoftware.com/blog/2020/…

There has been a lot of discussion around contact tracing apps for COVID and the security/privacy guarantees that they can give. What's been missing is discussion around how we know the apps actually do what they're supposed to. Right now, we don't. ☠️ bbc.com/news/uk-52732818
