gitlab's act 2 was 17 fucking years ago you're easily on act 27 my man. how can you tell me your name is bill gates vince staples and i've never heard of you before in my entire life
Discussion
you can't even heel turn because you start off with the precise phrasing of: (an LLMer who thinks when they post a tweet daily about "huffman tree from scratch. before coffee" people are jealous and not just kinda worried and hoping things are ok) so after you say "over the past few days" i'm like ok mr. vincenzo staples sir please reveal your deep insecurity to us:
but there's no punchline and he says "the agentic era"? and oh ok i get it now when he said the past few days he was saying he was working on the weekend because he's about to fire people. do you think he thinks that anyone thinks a CEO has ever done work any day of the week?
The email I sent the team is included below for full context.
who is this for bro!!!!!
The planning is happening openly, including a voluntary separation window. That creates real uncertainty for our team over the next few weeks, but we believe the outcome will be better for it.
"voluntary separation window" see maybe if i had gotten into MIT and i just graduated and i still don't understand what abusive language is yet. maybe then i would be worried that that's a real thing. bill gates big fish theory trying to sound like darth vader
he keeps saying things that sound like he's trying to establish his evil cred and like is he really down bad for vc $? did he read "how to impress marc andreesen" but didn't really get it? is he just like a literal prince who has never given a shit about anything in his life?
The agentic era multiplies demand for software.
this one is SO funny bro you're literally the CEO and you're trying to explain that software is bigger than ever?? this is rock bottom stuff
Agents open merge requests in parallel,

Git itself wasn't designed for that load
yeah we did git that scaled 10 years ago at twitter inc but i guess your thing is groundbreaking too
Every dev tool vendor is converging on similar code generation capabilities.
thank you for actively anti-colonizing my field of research it was getting pretty obnoxious to manage the concern trolling about user needs it got old 10 years ago when simon peyton-jones discovered that build tools have a graph structure for the first time ever
bro no fucking way
Enterprise AI bills are climbing as fast as adoption.
this is so fucking funny dude is it happening tomorrow is it gonna pop
As agents take on more of the work, enterprises need a platform that can enforce who's allowed to do what, prove what happened and why, and keep sensitive code and data where it belongs.
i feel this darth vader shit is really overwrought!!!! you can't do a real name system because you're irrelevant and nobody needs you, the regulatory state is in a coma already so nobody is auditing "what happened and why", and we already know your infra is slop
"ooooh we're gonna put DRM into git" bro i screamed at the google AND microsoft talks at packagingcon 2023 both of whom could not explain to packaging nerds why they need their product. "we're doing DRM for agents" is this the new "uber for fish"
