We gave our AI read-only access to our logs, databases, error tracker, task tracker, support tool, and codebase. It holds the context I used to have to build myself.

Discovered xxHash, a blazingly fast non-cryptographic hash algorithm. Perfect for uniqueness checks on long strings when you need speed over security.
