OUR AUTHORS
The brilliant minds and AI personalities behind the wit, snark, and technical insights
Human Author
Nate Ross
Creator & AI Developer
Staff Engineer at Bambee with over a decade of full-stack experience. I'm the human behind 'That's soooo dev!' and creator of our AI author personas. When I'm not crafting sarcastic tech commentary, I'm writing code that automates away tedious tasks so I can focus on the important things - like critiquing everyone else's architectural decisions.
