In this episode of The Innovators & Investors Podcast, host Kristian Marquez sits down with David Brem, Managing Director of the University of Michigan’s Zell Lurie Commercialization Fund. David offers a rare glimpse into the inner workings of a student-led endowment fund focused on early-stage, sector-agnostic investments primarily in the Michigan ecosystem. He shares insights on their unique, founder-first investment approach, how they navigate pre-seed to Series A venture opportunities, and the rigorous due diligence process involving qualitative analysis over pure numbers. David also discusses his roles with global VC networks including Electro Ventures, the London Venture Capital Network, and Level Up Ventures, illustrating how he bridges U.S., European, and Australian venture ecosystems with a special focus on mobility and transportation tech. Highlights include deep dives into emerging trends like eVTOLs (electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft), smart city infrastructure, and safety innovations in aviation technology. Listeners will gain valuable perspectives on how diverse expertise—from military intelligence and management consulting to academic ventures—shapes David’s investment thesis and community-building efforts. The episode also explores the importance of networking, adding value in the startup ecosystem, and practical advice for aspiring investors or entrepreneurs navigating the venture capital world. With stories of successes, challenges, and future outlooks, this episode is a must-listen for innovators, founders, and investors aiming to understand the intersection of academia, technology, and venture capital in today’s dynamic landscape.

In this episode of Build and Learn, we discuss code generation (codegen) and how Stripe uses it to generate SDKs for its APIs automatically. We talk about how a declarative shape of an API (such as Open API spec or GraphQL schema) can be fed into a tool to generate an SDK in a specific programming language. This process helps ensure that the SDKs are always in sync with the API and that any changes to the API are automatically reflected in the SDKs.

Most SDKs today are still hand-written, but automatic generation is becoming more popular.
We'll touch on the tradeoff between readable code and automatically generated code, which can be quite long and complex.
You'll also hear how the Ruby clients for Orbit were likely written by hand and may not be up-to-date.

Flavors of DevRel: tummeling, docs, SDKs, meetings, and conferences 44:45

20 weeks پیش44:45

44:45

In this episode, we reconnect for season 3, after a short hiatus to chat about life in Developer Relations (DevRel) at bigger companies, the avalanche of meetings that come with onboarding, the rollercoaster of prepping for big events like GDC, and the ongoing quest to create top-tier documentation and SDKs. We swap tips for maximizing AI tools, reflect on building the DevRel muscle from scratch, and share some fun side stories about local AI models, the surprising details that delight developers, and the importance of building reusable content for conferences. Topics Covered DevRel at a Big Company Balancing one-on-ones, onboarding tasks, and project management meetings. Strategies for politely pruning your calendar so actual work gets done. Why dev advocates end up as “tummelers,” making sure every voice is heard in a bustling org. GDC & Conference Prep The crunch leading up to a big event—workshops, talks, documentation updates, and unexpected scope creep. Juggling multiple presentations and deciding what content should be reusable or recorded. First steps planning DevRel activities for major company conferences. Flavor Variations of Dev Advocacy Comparing DevRel at a self-serve startup (like Stripe) vs. an enterprise environment where devs aren’t always the decision-makers. How to navigate new responsibilities, from establishing YouTube channels to championing better docs platforms. SDK Generation & Documentation Challenges The pros and cons of self-built vs. third-party, auto-generated SDKs. Maintaining a polished, dev-friendly experience across multiple languages. Cleaning up an OpenAPI spec, ensuring thorough examples and descriptions. Balancing “thin vs. full-featured” SDK approaches (retries, pagination, error handling, oh my!). Insights on Tools & AI How many AI services are too many AI services? (ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Descript, ElevenLabs, local LLaMa, etc.) Encouraging new coders (like Logan!) to lean on AI-driven dev tools and embrace prompt engineering. Will auto-generated SDKs eventually make handcrafted clients obsolete? Maybe…but not quite yet. Write the Docs Excitement around giving a talk at the Write the Docs conference on open-source documentation. Lessons learned from letting the community contribute PRs, and how it all ties back to building dev relationships. Fun Developer Delights Appreciating the “little things” in product design—from underscore-only API keys that copy easily, to IKEA coffee mugs that drain flawlessly in dishwashers. Why it’s worth fighting for extra developer-experience polish (and how that shapes product love).

They also discuss creative ways to enhance documentation using interactive elements, and offers tips on how to get involved and meet people at conferences. You'll also hear about "Slow Productivity," Cal Newport's book that has us rethinking how they manage their workloads. We'll discuss the book’s core principles: (1) doing fewer things, (2) working at a natural pace, and (3) obsessing over quality. This leads to a deep dive into managing distractions, the anxiety around being constantly responsive, and the value of deep, focused work. Plus, they share updates on fun projects at Craftwork, like organizing painting crews with a drag-and-drop interface and rebuilding a pricing engine. Finally, they touch on their DIY approach to calendar management and Colin’s adventures in learning Unity for game development.
