Hey Swyx! So many.

- Serverless Framework. Write 5 lines of YAML and have an API endpoint that scales to infinity and back to zero. Still blows my mind. (I am biased though)

- Fullstory/real user monitoring/session replay tools. Such a clear way to see what someone was doing when they ran into a bug.

- Github Copilot. Still amazes me!

If you're actually pitching your own product as "scaling to infinity" and you're doing that to developers, I'd suggest to scale back on the exaggeration a bit.

I'm speaking specifically to the question asked - the first time I saw a demo. I worked there after it already existed, and am no longer employed there.

hey Aaron! yeah Serverless has a great demo for sure. very fast move by Austen to spot and grab that opportunity as fast as he did, feels like someone wouldve figured it out eventually.

i feel like this is a list of "products that demo well". obviously a nice advantage but am also looking for "great demos of products that would have been hard to demo", if that jogs any ideas

and dont feel constrained to just demos, sometimes a verbal pitch alone is enough to give someone the mind virus
