"Several dozen engineers gave the request LGTM approval"
I'm picturing a caricature of a software engineer drooling onto his keyboard with excitement as he slams his greasy fingers onto the "L", "G", "T" and "M" keys. Please, Sergey, notice me senpai.
and that is why we need static typing because people do not want to be labeled as nitpickers, and therefore anything allowed by computer will be merged eventually.
It means it's not automated :) And why not? It only happens during onboarding (and the revert for offboarding).
So, plenty of chances to make a typo or break the linter conventions. Is it your numeric email or first name/last initial; is it @gmail.com like the whole world or a different corporate one?
It's exciting because it speaks of things to come. Maybe they will see a living legend on campus.
It makes me think of skunkworks projects: the next day, your manager is on some team downstairs. Along with a couple of guys in the silo across the hall. And the guy who rolled his own distributed mutex pub-sub.
That's my outsider's perspective. I'd be giddy too.

In reality, it was a SWE complaining that Sergey didn't punctuate his comments.

This is so silly. He added his username to a permissions config file. I've looked at the CL. It's really not exciting.

has anyone ever used the term "code request" in this context before?
I'm sure it originally said change request, and somebody said "what's a change request? Gotta say CODE or nobody will know what it means!"
Clearly not written by anyone familiar with the topic :)
At least it’s not ‘codes’. That one sets my teeth on edge.
