56 00:04:27.290 ⇒ 00:04:31.707 Anne: But yeah, but right now our tandem is
57 00:04:33.290 ⇒ 00:04:40.420 Anne: like, how can I say this like, it’s good cause. I’m she’s reviewing my work, and then
58 00:04:41.428 ⇒ 00:04:45.050 Anne: I’m reviewing her work also. So we’re kind of
59 00:04:45.750 ⇒ 00:04:49.770 Anne: in a working full hour, because when you yes.

Initially, it was, I was worried because she’s in la time and your the time zones are very far, however, one i i know that you well now I think it’s very helpful, because you don’t have to be up super super late.
63 00:05:15.800 ⇒ 00:05:21.750 Uttam Kumaran: and yeah, I think it’s good to even on the engineering side, like we have people that can review code now. And it’s
64 00:05:22.070 ⇒ 00:05:26.417 Uttam Kumaran: getting a bit easier. So it’s nice to have multiple people
65 00:05:26.920 ⇒ 00:05:30.050 Uttam Kumaran: and like, have more ideas and things like that, you know.
66 00:05:30.470 ⇒ 00:05:34.760 Anne: Yeah, yeah. And besides, it’s easy now to approve.
