Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S6 Bonus: Addison Higham, StreamNative

Addison Higham is a father of 2 kids, and has been married for 12 years. His family is of the utmost importance to him, and he has been happy to be able to balance his career and personal life along his journey. As he puts it - he has been a nerd since day 1, building, fixing and playing with computers from a young age. Along with his CS interests, his family was very entrepreneurial growing up. During schooling, he joined some startups to learn the ropes of building solutions. Outside of tech, he loves to ski and be outdoors.

The makers of Apache Pulsar, an open source project, decided to build a cloud-native event streaming platform. Early on in the venture, Addison joined his team as a Chief Architect, in order to enable enterprises to easily access data as real-time event streams.

This is the creation story of StreamNative.

Everything Everywhere Daily - “Let Them Eat Cake”

Marie Antoinette was the last queen of France prior to the French Revolution. She and her husband were executed by guillotine during the Regin of Terror, which soon followed. 

Over the years, she has been vilified as a woman who was out of touch with the common folk and was famously reported to have said that if the French people couldn’t eat bread, then “let them eat cake.”

But was she really that bad, and did she really tell her subjects to eat cake?

Learn more about Marie Antoinette and if, in fact, she recommended cake eating on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
