Notes

Alex

  • Open Source Insulin - no expectations
  • Dixon, Kyle, Scott, Aidan?, Andrei being most supportive
  • Workshops typically disorganized, etc.
  • Not seen testimonials - open source them
  • There has been a continuity of suckage
  • Ramifications: sounds good
  • Is that a sustainable product? Imade3d is sustainable product. First to market.
  • Outcompete Jellybox? Probable. School friendly aesthetic.

Sara

  • Needs to do it to believe it
  • Kit is where it's at.
  • Reverberations are still there from the Immersion
  • Needs to do the work to get there
  • Believe in it and it can happen

Kinesthetics

  • Sara - persistence, not strong from concept to CAD, would need physical model. Not big on taking notes- does something and learns from that. Do things slightly differently - is a valuable learning process for optimizing time.
  • Alex - does not know how to solve problems in hardware. Troubleshooting something not troubleshooted before. What would it take to troubleshoot? I don't know what I don't know discomfort. It's just gettinig exposed to more info? Ideal if someone who went from novice to expert. Just read a glossary of techniques.

Marcin

  • It can't be on faith
  • Efficiency is needed
  • As far as how it's going right now, 400% improvement is needed
