I have seen the movie.

I have experience that actually would help them as they take this turn.

So adults are still gonna be important.

I think pace will continue to go up,

partly because people want to feed the beast, the sort of LLMs that are running at night.

And I think partly because there's just such an opportunity to keep moving so much faster.

And I think that's gonna be dizzying and I'm not excited about what that causes for burnout.

Sadly, I think that geography and actually diversity is going to take a step back.

I think that we were very good

about driving more breadth.

As we grew the industry, we started looking at people who were from different backgrounds to populate it, including different locations.

But I think that because the AI wave is so heavily coming from the Bay Area and because companies are hiring fewer folks,

they're hiring people that look and act like themselves.

So age, gender, I think, you know, ethnic backgrounds, all of those are taking a hit.

And I think that we will have stepped back quite a number of years in the diversity of what we do.

And so I worry, I mean, this is my personal worry, but I worry about that.

probably more now than I did in the last five years, because I think it's an underbelly of what we're seeing.

And I don't think that anyone's intentionally doing anything, but I think when pace is so high, the fact is that, you know,

Women are having kids in those power years, and they just don't have the time to allot to spending their nights and weekends in cloud code.

And so that's an impact.
