>>>5a/ Machine-scale infrastructure.

>>> Others are bolting AI onto platforms built for human-rate commits. Git itself wasn't designed for agent-rate work.

>>> We're rebuilding the underlying infrastructure for machine scale: a generational rebuild of git, the monolith giving way to composable, monetized services with agent-first APIs.

>>> should-be-illegal process of putting debt on the acquired company's balance sheet

This is a basically a leveraged buyout (LBO). All private equity works this way. Yes, it should be illegal, or at least heavily limited.

I highly recommend this book: "Plunder: Private Equity’s Plan to Pillage America"

... unless they become a mobile operator
