Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S11 E2: Clément “Kero” Renault, Meilisearch

Clément "Kero" Renault wanted to be an architect when he was younger. During that time, he also learned about computers and built his first website - and he never stopped building. Funny story, he lost that first website cause it wasn't on Git. Outside of his professional life, he likes to draw, craft and to cook. He also enjoys video games, and mentioned Hidden Reign was his favorite game of all time, alongside the likes of Cyberpunk.

Seven years ago, Kero was in school, and he wanted to build a solid search experience, but not just a general search - one that indexed your data, and allowed you to have a "Google" just for your info. After winning a school hackathon, Kero and his mates wanted to take it to the next level.

This is the creation story of Meilisearch.

Everything Everywhere Daily - SONAR

One of the most significant developments in the history of naval warfare was the submarine. 

The submarine offered a means of stealth and surprise that surface ships couldn’t compete with. 

At first, navigating submarines was relatively simple, as they traveled just below the surface and used a snorkel and a periscope.

However, as submarines improved and could dive deeper, they encountered a problem. How could they see and navigate?The answer came from nature.

Learn more about SONAR, how it was developed, and how it works on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Ezra Klein Show - Trump’s Foreign Policy, Explained

Trump has been making some foreign policy moves I didn’t entirely expect. He seems determined to get a nuclear deal with Iran. He’s been public about his disagreements with Benjamin Netanyahu. He called Vladimir Putin “crazy.” And he keeps talking about wanting his legacy to be that of a peacemaker. 

So what, at this point, can we say about Trump’s foreign policy? What is he trying to do, and how well is it working? If he succeeds, what might his legacy be? 

Emma Ashford is a senior fellow at the Stimson Center, a foreign policy think tank, and the author of the forthcoming book “First Among Equals.” She comes from a school of thought that’s more sympathetic to the “America First” agenda than I typically am. But she’s also cleareyed about what is and isn’t working and the ways that Trump is an idiosyncratic foreign policy maker who isn’t always following an “America First” agenda himself.
