Love this idea and am just signed up. Thanks for the promo code! Also, I really like your blog post about shipping faster: https://greptile.com/blog/ship-faster. Shipping code is so fun that we should all be looking for ways to do more of it.

Btw, your service might be down right now. It just ingested my private repo but won't answer any questions.

Thank you for the kind words! Yes, AWS is experiencing an outage and by extension, so are we :( Should be a bit more stable now though!

I like the problem statement in the essay, but it's generally more effective to give context instead of more precise instructions. The people you work with are smart and capable -- if you tell them what problem you're trying to solve, they will adjust accordingly. Plus, giving context fills in so many more gaps than just the time and effort expectations.
