Already worthy of thanks
You may never see how much work happens behind the scenes to deliver our programs. It takes many forms: work done in person, online, and quietly behind the scenes, along with everyone who inspires us along the way. And there's a lot of tools that gets us here.
AI Collective, Alicia St. Rose, Anthony Shore, Doug Rider, Eagle, the Earendil team, Eric Leuthardt, Eric Provencher, Franklin, Howard, Pegi, Sandy and 'Lil Dude Schargel, Jim Slavik, Joanna Gough, Joe Simpson Jr., Lora Knoyle, Matthew Charles Mullenweg, Mike Pilley, Nico Bailon, Stephen Kinzey, Warren Winter, and so many more.
Our stack leans on a number of foundations including Anthropic, Astro, Cloudflare, Etch, GeneratePress, Hetzner, OpenAI, TanStack ecosystem, Termageddon, WordPress, Z.ai, and some great open-source projects. Our shared primary tooling is 1Password, Affinity, BackBlaze, macOS, various Google surfaces, GitHub, Oppo, Pi Coding Agent, RepoPrompt, Samsung, Superhuman, Superwhisper, Windows and WSL2, and Zen. That invisible infrastructure is part of the story too.
Previous help desks, ideas, planning and plan reviews, human accessibility checks, and plain old thoughtful critique all shape what eventually feels closer to perfection. Thank you to everyone who has lent their eyes, their expertise, and their time to make our offerings better.
