Seems like a lot of unnecessary complexity for something I could do with some if statements and lookups to a table in Postgres. Cool post, but why would anyone use this?
Hey whalesalad, this is Tido and I oversee engineering here @ Segment. I'm really sorry about your experience and just looked up the interview feedback in depth. I'd be more than happy to hop on a call to discuss the feedback and hopefully provide constructive thoughts, and really sorry we didn't do it right a year ago! LMK if you're interested, happy to chat later today or any time this week — I'll reach out via email now so you have my email!
