Navigating code base is so much different today than it was not even 180, like 720 difference.

in terms of like spins, that it's just dramatically different to navigate a code base and have an understanding in a world where you have agentic properties available to you.

And in a lot of cases, you might be more forthcoming with the agent because you have to be, you know, to get it to give you what you need, you kind of have to be like,

you know what, I don't know a lot about this subject matter.

Can you steep me in it?

Can you school me?

What do I need to learn here?

Can we build a toy application?

And then you get launched into it, but it can be a little revealing.

sometimes maybe too exposed.

And that's where I was like, you know what?

I like the fact that you have guardrails because I was a little apprehensive myself.

In my own self-hosted version of it, hey, that's cool because I'm not judging me.

I love the fact that prompt review and PR, pull request, just naturally translate.

I don't know if that was serendipitous 17 years ago when GitHub accepted itself and said, okay, pull requests are the thing.

Fork yourself kind of stuff.

That was the founding detail of GitHub was being able to fork a code base and submit a pull request

It was brand new territory.

And now look at us.

We're just talking to our code bases.
