I’ve heard similar stories about working at Sun back in the day. It was magical, supposedly.

Sun didn't have a monorepo -- at least not 1998 through the acquisition. Each org of a given size (Solaris os/net, install, etc) had its own separate island of source with its own build and test systems.

I guess my comment wasn’t clear. Talking about how you could just grab a random terminal with your smart card at Sun, and get work done. True at Google, true at Sun back in the day, not true at most places.
