Immediately what we can do is say, we're not going to vote on this as a package.

We should pull out the DHS part of the appropriations, have an independent vote on this, be able to have a public discussion about this.

It's the same thing that the House did.

The House had independent votes on these different pieces of appropriations, and we should in the Senate, too.

That's a good question. So most people probably have not heard of a Go link, but the way to think of it is a URL shortener. The consumer version of this is bit.ly or tiny URL, but Go links specifically only work for people within the same organization. So whereas you would use bit.ly to shorten our URL for like marketing purposes to the general public, where anyone can click on that link.

GoLinks only work if you and I work at the same company and the purpose is really to share resources between each other.

Yeah. And if you remember, Rob, when we were actually interviewing for TinySeed, you were questioning why do companies even pay for this, right? It's an interesting phenomenon. But the reality is this is a what I call like enterprise software tool that works independently. The larger the company is, the larger the problem becomes. So there's really three use cases.

I'd say company-wide, team-wide, and then individual use. But the way that we break it down between those three, sometimes there's good overlap. But really the fundamental problem is, hey, Rob sent me a resource three months ago, and I don't remember where he sent it. Email, Slack, he might have told me over... a video conference.

But GoLynx basically helps you remember where to go because it's a human readable link most of the time that's a lot easier to recall.

We don't store or host anything. Yeah. Got it. Yeah. And actually you would just type in go slash Anar's file and that would be it. You don't even have to do the tiny seed portion. Yeah.

Yeah, this was started back in the early to mid 2000s at Google. We actually have a very cool kind of interview with a couple of the people that started this at Google on our website. You can check that out. But basically, folks at Google were asking to set up these redirects So they would say, hey, I have a holiday party I'm planning for all of Google.

It's really hard to communicate this to 10, 20, 50,000 people. And it's going to be go slash holiday party 2007, for example. And they just communicate that to Google. And these engineers were setting up these redirects internally for Google. And they thought, let's set up a service for this so that anyone can just self-serve themselves.
