He shared his dev setup at Dev Tool Time (https://srcgr.ph/mitchell-hashimoto) which shows how passionate he is about engineering. Going from CEO -> CTO -> IC solidifies his genuineness.
TBH what I got out of this is that he’s got a simple solid setup that works for him. He clearly doesn’t burn time changing his setup often and that makes sense.
For me it's the fact that he's still coding, putting thought into dev tools and his dev setup (less is more in his case).

Nix is hardly simple
On the face of it not, no. But when you consider the immense power and versatility of it (you can do anything from setting up simple virtual envs to automatically deploying a multi-container setup on AWS), it starts to become a lot simpler than the sum of all the other tools that it replaces. Nix is a single principled idea, but can be used in so many different contexts.

Newb investor here, but huge hashi user. Do you have any insight as to when stocks become available after an IPO?

You can buy the stock on the first day of trading. If you want to try and get an allocation of shares at IPO price, various brokerages have different processes where you apply. I use E*Trade mostly, but Robinhood does have the best IPO center of any brokerage I have seen.
Based on what I have seen, Robinhood either doesnt give/doesnt have access to every IPO? Am I wrong?
The tools and vision they created after, just amazing coming from a small scrappy startup crew. Which, IMO, is totally wild given the offerings clearly tend to target bigger Enterprise who have bigger teams/apps/ops demand.
Then to walk away from $50MM barely older than drinking age. [2]
Seriously congratulations to them and the Hashicorp team. Will likely invest and hold for a long time.
