Confession: I’ve scrolled past dozens of comments on a PR just to find out why I couldn’t merge it. More times than I’d like to admit.
Agents have made this a lot worse. They push commits and leave review comments of their own, and all of it lands in the timeline. PR timelines have gotten dramatically noisier, and the few things you actually need to know get buried.
My team is rethinking the foundations of the PR experience around that problem, and today the first piece went into public preview. The new Overview page puts merge readiness and your next step right at the top. A summary catches you up on review activity, and you can filter the conversation down to unresolved threads. It’s opt-in and rolling out through the weekend.
This is a much-needed start, and there’s a lot more coming as we modernize PRs for the way software gets built now. If you try it, we’d love to hear what still sends you back to the classic view.

At almost every point in a startup's life, the rational thing to do is quit.
So I only back founders with an irrational reason to keep going. In my experience it comes in two flavors: True Believers and Killers.
My first essay: what drives founders to keep going and how to harness it sustainably. Link below.

I am curious what were the challenges that prevented Google Docs from shipping Markdown support 15 years ago and how they have finally overcome those hurdles
