Ruslan Meeting Notes

• Research focus - mathematical modeling of stochastic optimization; machine learning - very basic; computer vision; basics in mechanics and electrotechnics - mathematical engineering; mix of informatics and engineering
• Never built mechanical things
• Will like to build a house in the future
• Optimization using mathematics
• Looks for an opportunity to get hands-on skills
• Aerial drone to plant aquaponics
• Software development - python, C++, Java
• Current project in python - robotic inventory of warehouse - Amazon
• All factories have robots now. Therefore, the competitive advantage is logistics. That's where information is the key factor that influences price.
• Thus OSE is competing with those logistics. So this is ethical - OSE would disrupt classical economics completely. We open production, and we open distribution. No longer the classical economic model. That links to the mission of OSE - from regenaration and environment.
• Extreme collaboration - Ruslan has it
• Can "extreme collaboration" win as an economic model? The question is "should it win"
• Primary goal of classical system is profit maximization
• Thus this will maximize profit of some person
• Profit maximization is not sustainable - as if you want to maximize profit, you will
• We have different goals - autonomy, mastery, and purpose - if not maximize profit, maximize self-determination?
• We have well-being of people as an essential part of project. "We provide means for everyone". Different than max profit of a single person or organization.
• We compete with classical model. Linux disrupted server world.
• Idea of OSE is robust - it needs to be not killable.
• The village - it's something that is independent.
• You have means of production. You are independent from other factories. They can create their own society - extremely capitalistic or socialistic - but free to do.
