Hey ! I'm a co-founder of Decipad (https://decipad.com), a low-code notebook where data is easy to gather, model and report on. Previously I was the founder/CEO of YLD, a top-tier technology consultancy. I was Chief Commercial at Nodejitsu where I was responsible for the world's largest Node.js cloud and NPM. I'm a massive nerd, studied comp sci, and worked in Silicon Valley/New York for a bunch of years. I've worked in open source since high school, and love it. I do some advising and Angel Investment, in companies far cooler than me like Vercel, Auth0, etc. I'm super used to helping entrepreneurs bringing their ideas from 0 to 1, and i love it. Lately, I've been working a lot in the startup ecosystem, so ask me anything about building startups, getting investment etc. I'll be answering all questions until I drop ded.

My first memories of any number crunching software was Microsoft Excel. On a very slow Windows XP machine, Excel was the only spreadsheet program anybody needed and it was an overkill even then. The sheer number of features available on excel including the formulas and recently released plugins. Anybody from Hedge Funds to Small Industries used excel to automate a good chunk of their work and proved to be one of the top selling software with the MS Office Suite. Google Sheets was a more anew introduction with the Google Suite, which comes into adoption with the widespread usage of remote working and multiple people collaborating on similar projects. The fact that it's actually a web app that functions seamlessly shows the amount of work put into action. Here comes the problem. Isn't it high time there's a complete redesign of our spreadsheet software and provide customers with a more user-friendly and data intense alternative ? There're some very fundamental tasks that could be converted into a user-friendly version in my opinion. - Basic Data inputs - Categorizing Data - Easy access to third party plugins - Ability to convert tables into diagrams and visual representations Let's Talk ?

Hey, I m Gavin and I m building thirdwork, a talent platform that matches web3 startups with top product, design and marketing freelancers. Before that, I led product at Knoetic (a people analytics startup backed by Accel) and worked on economic policy in the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (2012-2016) and the World Bank. From working in web3 to the rise of freelancing and fractional work to building a startup, ask me anything.
