Rootly data shows after-hours developer pages roughly doubled year over year
Overview
Rootly data shows developers are paged roughly twice as often outside working hours as they were a year ago.
Gergely Orosz, who posted the finding on X, says the likely cause is about twice the pull request frequency, which he links to more AI-generated or AI-written code being pushed. The post reports the data and Orosz's explanation; it does not give the sample size or the method Rootly used to measure pages.
