@garrytan Police did not even come to my call when I got my laptop stolen from the co-working space on Bryant St. in 2019. Gone pitching for 5 minutes, boom, it's gone! I had to come to the office in person to file a report. I sent a picture with direct evidence from co-working CCTV.

A huge amount of knowledge is stored in countless working chats, random notes, scattered all over the place. Now, it can be reused and converted into actionable and reusable items x1000 faster than it was possible before. Just an admirable fact. Best times to build.
