I want to see more lines of code, not less.

Hmm looking at your git statistics it appears you have only pushed 60 commits this month with 12,000 lines of code changed - while Jimmy over here has pushed 200 commits this month with 200 lines of code changed.

If you do not improve next month we are going to have to let you go, we just cant carry a 0.3x employee such as yourself.

"We need this to scale to hundreds of millions of users across many regions"

"But we have no users at all right now"

"But we might have hundreds of millions of users in future"
