Like why go from an open source utility library for typing to take VC money and try to shoe-horn in an observability platform that no one was asking for?My prediction, not going to be a good investment. scolvin 21 days ago ROFL.I clearly didn't build pydantic "to take VC money" - I maintained Pydantic for 5 years before deciding to take VC money.I wanted to build logfire and I didn't want to compete with or restrict our open source, we so built logfire.Let's see on the investment; seems to be going pretty well so far.
