The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Jeff Seibert no published score: no usable exchanges on raw tape, and a fair score needs 8+ record → ← everyone

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Q 26. Okay. And what was the original idea behind Crashlytics?

A Yeah. So it turns out mobile apps crashed. So if you think in 20 11, uh, you're, we're two years after the, the sort of launch of iOS apps, right? Those came in 2009. Everyone's building apps. The app store is flooded with reviews. 10% of them mentioned the word crash. It was a very unstable, very early platform. And I became obsessed with crash reporting through my work at box because we were facing our own internal issues with our mobile work and our Mac OS work and ended up building a prototype on the side. And I asked box, Hey, can I work on this nights and weekends? Would that be cool? And to their complete credit, they were like, yep, great. Go for it. It's totally unrelated to box. And if it's good, maybe we'll use it.

Q Well, hold on. You skip, you skip over, uh, your choral fascination and your production credits. Uh, How are you balancing these things on the side along with your, your, you know, the wine company?

A I have, uh, I don't know, I love just being involved in really cool projects, and these are all more from the investor side, and so one of my good friends from college is Jeff Rolowski, the director-producer of Chasing Ice, Chasing Coral, and now The Social Dilemma, um, and so was just honored to be involved super early in those projects. I'm a huge, uh, climate change advocate, and so that was really fun to sort of see the development of those films and start learning about the documentary film world, um, and then of course that ultimately resulted in an interview around The Social Dilemma, And that just was a fantastic success. You never expect a documentary to have all that many viewers. And now over a hundred million families have watched it on Netflix. It's truly unbelievable. Interesting. So that was really cool to see sort of in the interstitial period right after Twitter.
