That sounds like a very interesting job. Without giving away too much, what other sources do you use?

What I've found generally, is it's all about curation. You have to be ruthless about curating at all times. If some source that used to have a great S/N ratio, suddenly doesn't, then drop it.

Very much agreed. Nostalgia seldom pays off.

Probably reddit, lobsters, newsgroups, mailing lists, Matrix, IRC, etc. Like any good CTO type.

CTO roles are not as rigid or well-defined as one would assume: https://www.allthingsdistributed.com/2007/07/the_different_c...
