For me personally integration marketing.

Slack, IFFT those sorts of platforms already having a user base willing to try new things . Massive.

I wonder how much additional traffic, links, seo benefit and general brand awareness this site has generated simply off doing things to this standard.

A fly wheel of benefits.

I have such an appreciation for write ups like this. Reminds me I'm not a real programmer at all.

I'd argue the minute they turn to an advertising model that subscriptions would churn overnight, but in the same vein as the don't be evil motto being dropped I nod at the scepticism.

I know. Right. Its not like they are searching any sort of volume.

Pretty quick way to figure that out is to ask for it now, build the landing page.

Fwiw I think of the year in much the same way as a clock face.. the 12 months and 12 hours thing essentially matches somewhat 1 to 1 for me. So circle representation is what follows. Im actually surprised in the variations too.

100s of endpoints with various evolving payloads across 100s of developers.

The problem space is shared documentation, not 'make http request'

If its on nextjs I've a feeling there are auth providers kicking about to implement sso at least.

If Openai can win the developer market with cheap api access and a better product, then distribution becomes through third parties with everyone else becoming the product sending training data back to the model. I'd see that as their current strategy.

I went to try this out only to read the words 'download the software'.

Good luck with that. Even the Firefox plugin requires some additional setup. Frictionless it ain't. By a long stretch.

Sigh.
