S8 E10: From Chrome Extension to a Professional Network for 500K+ Developers: Engineering Content Recommendation Pipelines with Ido Shamun, Co-Founder & CTO of daily.dev

Ido Shamunn cut his teeth on the C programming language, while studying Applied Mathematics. He was unsure while studying if he should go Computer Science, but he mentioned that his Applied Math degree helped him understand better what goes on behind the scenes. He's happily married, and enjoys playing music, since way back in Junior High with the keyboard. He has since moved into guitar, and eventually into the drums and heavier music.

Ido and his co-founders started out building a side project, building a tool to help themselves keep track of what's going on in the industry. After they built a quick tool to aggregate information, they thought that maybe other developers would be interested in this solution.

This is the creation story of Daily Dev.
