How did we run all these experiments concretely? Our panel of repositories We started by running an analysis over thousands of public GitHub repositories from which we extracted statistics about programming languages & frameworks, third-party services, deployment platform, team sizes, and codebase age. Since Tech startups are more likely to have open-source repositories than large enterprises, and stacks are likely very different we then unbiased our statistics based on publicly available data and reached our ideal panel distribution. We then staffed various coding agents to create real-world
