Earlier this week, our @UberEng teams came together for Dispatch—an incredible day of collaboration, learning, and connecting across our engineering sites around the world. We had an outstanding fireside chat with @bcherny, creator of Claude Code, alongside Uber's @hudaman. Their conversation explored how AI is fundamentally changing software development—not by replacing engineers, but by enabling them to solve harder problems, move faster, and build in entirely new ways. Having grown up at @Uber, one lesson has shaped how I think about building: the biggest impact comes from obsessing over hard, meaningful problems that matter to the business. Some of our best engineers spent years solving problems at Uber scale, open-sourced the technologies they created, and changed the industry in the process. Many later went on to build category-defining companies. It was a privilege to welcome back @SamarAtTemporal (Co-Founder & CEO of @temporalio), @martin_c_mao, (Co-Founder & CEO of @chronosphereio), and @byte_array (Founder & CEO of @Onehousehq). Their journeys all reinforce the same idea: don't start with "I want to build a company." Start with "I want to solve an important problem." Stay obsessed with it, keep building, and the rest can follow. Huge thanks to everyone who presented, participated, and helped make Dispatch such an inspiring event. The energy, curiosity, and technical depth across our teams make me incredibly excited for what we'll build next.
