#jj-vcs interoperability with Git continues to be key. The fact that ERSC can swap out the repo storage to not use Git, *and* can have a migration path to a future, better wire protocol than Git's, while preserving compatibility along the way, is amazing!

I spent an hour today arguing to delay a feature launch, only to realize my fear was a one-way door that existed pre-agents, but now the cleanup project from this category of mistake is much easier. Never ceases to amaze me how radically the assumptions have changed.

I still believe code review is necessary for many reasons, but I don't think I'll be putting code in front of a human without running it through an LLM ever again. It would be inconsiderate to the reviewer not too.

There are former executive teams I would like to apologize to. In retrospect, your analogies were actually pretty decent.
