  Specific technologies that won't change:
    - Unix. It's been in use since 1969, runs on almost every device. It isn't going anywhere.
      - In particular, become fluent with its ideas and the CLI. That group at bell labs was hands down the best programmers doing the best programming.
    - LISP. It's been in less use since 1958 and influences almost every modern language. It's like learning greek classics because of their influence.
    - HTTP. The basics of the internet haven't changed and work pretty well.
    - Text. Text is the best way to convey information. Nothing beats it. Not pictures. Not audio. Not video. Learn text manipulation.

Another approach is to take the convert binary to object part of your code, output that as JSON on stdout and feed that into jq.

Basically, a binary front end + jq = fq

Lido is a spreadsheet that non-programmers can use to build their own software. Unlike existing spreadsheets, we connect directly into company data and saas products in real-time.

Unlike real-time automation tools, we let non-programmers describe complex business logic to make sure the right data goes in the right place.

This allows end-users to write business logic with spreadsheet formulas they already know and automate manual and tedious processes from end-to-end. All without an engineer.

We're a small, talented team who are energized by shifting the paradigm. Our early team comes from Google, Two Sigma, Amazon, Square, McKinsey, Blackstone, and more.

You'll have an opportunity to shape not just what we work on, but also who we work with and how we work together. Our user base is growing, we're backed by millions of dollars in funding from top-tier investors, and are actively scaling the team across engineering, design, and go-to-market roles.

Open Roles:

- Senior Software Engineer

- Senior Frontend Engineer

- Software Engineer

- Software Quality Assurance

- Software apprentice (perfect for bootcamp newgrads)

- Growth Lead

We're building a generalized spreadsheet computing platform for the 750 million spreadsheet users. Think "Unix for spreadsheets."
