And one of the things that we see is it's a pretty basic lesson, but like we have a much better sense of who the best people are who have interned at the company for a couple of months than by looking at them at kind of a resume or a short resume.
I mean, obviously the in-person feel that you get from someone probably tells you more than the resume and you can do some basic skills assessment, but a lot of the stuff really just is cultural.
People thrive in different environments and on different teams, even within a specific company.
And it's like the people who come for even a short period of time over a summer who do a great job here, you know that they're going to be great if they came and joined full-time.
And that's one of the reasons why we've invested so much in internship is basically it's a very useful sorting function both for us and for the people who want to try out the company.

I think once you have that all dialed in, then we may one day reach a point where it really just doesn't matter as much where you are physically.
But...
I don't know, today it still does, right?
So yeah, for people who, there are all these people who have special skills and want to live in a place where we don't have an office.
