TranscriptAnnouncer: Hello, and welcome to Screaming in the Cloud with your host, Chief Cloud Economist at The Duckbill Group, Corey Quinn. This weekly show features conversations with people doing interesting work in the world of cloud, thoughtful commentary on the state of the technical world, and ridiculous titles for which Corey refuses to apologize. This is Screaming in the Cloud.Corey: This episode is sponsored in part by LaunchDarkly. Take a look at what it takes to get your code into production. I’m going to just guess that it’s awful because it’s always awful. No one loves their deployment process. What if launching new features didn’t require you to do a full-on code and possibly infrastructure deploy? What if you could test on a small subset of users and then roll it back immediately if results aren’t what you expect? LaunchDarkly does exactly this. To learn more, visit launchdarkly.com and tell them Corey sent you, and watch for the wince.Corey: This episode is sponsored by our friends at Revelo. Revelo is the Spanish word of the day, and its spelled R-E-V-E-L-O. It means “I reveal.” Now, have you tried to hire an engineer lately? I assure you it is significantly harder than it sounds. One of the things that Revelo has recognized is something I’ve been talking about for a while, specifically that while talent is evenly distributed, opportunity is absolutely not. They’re exposing a new talent pool to, basically, those of us without a presence in Latin America via their platform. It’s the largest tech talent marketplace in Latin America with over a million engineers in their network, which includes—but isn’t limited to—talent in Mexico, Costa Rica, Brazil, and Argentina. Now, not only do they wind up spreading all of their talent on English ability, as well as you know, their engineering skills, but they go significantly beyond that. Some of the folks on their platform are hands down the most talented engineers that I’ve ever spoken to. Let’s also not forget that Latin America has high time zone overlap with what we have here in the United States, so you can hire full-time remote engineers who share most of the workday as your team. It’s an end-to-end talent service, so you can find and hire engineers in Central and South America without having to worry about, frankly, the colossal pain of cross-border payroll and benefits and compliance because Revelo handles all of it. If you’re hiring engineers, check out revelo.io/screaming to get 20% off your first three months. That’s R-E-V-E-L-O dot I-O slash screaming.Corey: Welcome to Screaming in the Cloud. I’m Corey Quinn. Generally, at the start of these shows, I mention something about money. When I have a promoted guest, which means that they are sponsoring this episode, I talk about that. This is not that moment. There’s no money changing hands here.And in fact, I’m about to talk about a product that I am a huge fan of, but I’m, also as of this recording, not paying for. So, one might think I’m the product, but no. Let’s actually start by talking about money. My guest today is Avery Pennarun, the CEO of Tailscale, and as of today, being the day that this goes out, you folks have just raised $100 million in a Series B. First, thank you for joining me, followed immediately by congratulations.Avery: It’s great to be here, and thank you. It’s an exciting announcement that I hope we don’t end up spending too much time talking about because money is a lot more boring than technology. But yeah, we are very happy, both to be here and to be making the announcement.Corey: Yeah. CRV and Insight Partners are the lead investors on the round. And it’s great to see because I’
