And so we spent a lot of time on that.
And I could sort of, I don't agree with this.
I can empathize with the argument that
Models aren't good at writing highly concurrent code or they're not good at writing very performance sensitive code.
But there's no staff engineer who is running as many rigorous benchmarks and trying out different algorithms and analyzing ideas manually than someone who's using an agent.
And even that baseline is just incredible.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
I mean, I think the motto that we have now is there's just no excuse to not have rigor.
And there's no excuse to not have performance.
If someone complains about something, if someone complains about a paper cut in the UI, you know, whatever it is, there's just no, we don't really have a backlog.
Like there's no excuse to just not improve these things.
Yeah.
I think that everyone should take a hard look in the mirror and reevaluate how they spend their time.
There's a lot of interactions that you have or direction that you're giving or decisions that you're making.
And I think like many of these things to me fit below the agent line.
And to me, the agent line is like, if I or whoever would be at the meeting or whatever, like if we equivalently took the information that we're discussing and we just gave it to an agent, would it solve the same problem?
And I think the agent line keeps going up.
And also, I think the best people are pushing the agent line inside of their company by being smart about what skills they're writing and what integrations they're building and so on.
So once you do that, you likely have a lot more time than you thought you did.
