My favorite findings:
* Fig 2b: the cycle time drops slightly around June and July. I have no idea why this is but it's amusing.
* Fig 3: more coding days has very diminishing returns on cycle time. E.g. from eyeballing the graph, a 3x increase in the number of days per week spent coding (from 2 days to 6 days) only has a ~25% boost to cycle time.
* Fig 7: more comments on a PR means vastly slower cycle time. I can personally attest to this as some controversial PRs that I've participated in triggered a chain reaction of meetings and soul searching.
