Keith is the best engineer I ever worked with and we got to hit on all of my favorite topics in this conversation: pure math, chess, engineering, and what all of this means for the kids.

A Liberty Leave, career break, or sabbatical isn't running away from your life. It's finally showing up for it.

here’s a reminder to not make an idol of your last best. sometimes out of fear of not being able to see that goodness again, we build monuments off of a memory.
that was then… this is now.
there is more goodness for you.
more wonder, more miracles.
now move on.

How to make a great developer experience:
- 1 PR to improve the docs (daily)
- 1 customer / developer call (daily)
- 1 hour answering dev questions (daily)
- Test with a new account (bi-weekly)
- Cancel meetings that don’t directly help devs (weekly)
- Sweat the details (hourly)

The API product is your developer documentation.
If you don’t treat the docs like a first class product, developers will choose to go elsewhere.

Come say hello! I've got a secret demo of a very cool upcoming feature as well if you ask 👀

I often see companies providing public APIs focused on delivering excellent docs and SDKs.
However, to provide a truly great developer experience for APIs in 2024, there's more to it.

Our Next.js SDK is flipping from "opt-out" to "opt-in" for requiring auth
We learned that opt-out was a surprising default, and that developers don't love handing it in middleware
Now, you choose where auth is required by calling auth().protect() inside page.tsx or layout.tsx
Introducing Core 2 Beta, the latest generation of Clerk’s SDKs & UI Components!
This release ships with an improved design and UX for built-in components, new middleware for Next.js, and a new CLI tool to help you upgrade. ✨
