That's a good callout; something that I have noticed I frequently miss when iterating on my code is the cost of the CI/CD systems already set up. It's something to consider especially when iterating using a system like Sapling for Stacked PRs; each individual PR push may update a chain which causes a lot of wasted CI/CD time.

Congratulations!! Excited to see how the two combined keeps engineering teams steady.
H&M has 155,000 people, and the layoffs are primarily back-office staff. As unfortunate as it is, laying off 0.1% of a company of that scale (perhaps not in one go) has to be somewhat of a standard practice?
