My last company was a git data mining business, which forced me to learn git’s internals to a T.

That’s my recommendation: start a git data mining company → learn git → ✅

What’s a git data mining business? Does that mean extracting people’s emails from their commits?

Haha no, gross

Making sense of the bast amount of metadata generated by git interactions (code velocity, interactions with developers, bug introduction, bug resolution, and a million other things)

“We kill people based on metadata” is very real

phew

Yes
