4 00:01:12.530 ⇒ 00:01:14.370 Rico Rejoso: Good, how are you guys? How was the weekend?
5 00:01:15.640 ⇒ 00:01:18.880 Samuel Roberts: Weekend was nice. I had a wedding to go to.
6 00:01:19.410 ⇒ 00:01:20.070 Rico Rejoso: Right.
7 00:01:20.070 ⇒ 00:01:21.370 Samuel Roberts: So that was a fun time.
8 00:01:22.980 ⇒ 00:01:23.910 Samuel Roberts: How about you?
9 00:01:25.090 ⇒ 00:01:28.390 Rico Rejoso: Same stuff, just enough spending.
10 00:01:29.120 ⇒ 00:01:31.679 Rico Rejoso: Spending time with… with family.
11 00:01:35.650 ⇒ 00:01:37.599 Samuel Roberts: Stop a note-taker.
12 00:01:37.990 ⇒ 00:01:41.400 Mustafa Raja: Hey… Yeah, this is Otta.
13 00:01:41.400 ⇒ 00:01:42.030 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, how is it?
14 00:01:42.030 ⇒ 00:01:43.030 Mustafa Raja: Goodbye.
15 00:01:43.340 ⇒ 00:01:51.190 Mustafa Raja: Oh, if I open it up, it, it takes the notes live, so whatever I’m saying, it’s transcribing them too.
16 00:01:51.590 ⇒ 00:01:56.919 Samuel Roberts: Nice. Yeah, I’ve been using Granola to test that out a little bit, which does it all, like, on my machine.
17 00:01:57.060 ⇒ 00:01:57.679 Samuel Roberts: That’s a try.
18 00:01:57.680 ⇒ 00:02:06.179 Mustafa Raja: look into this too, this is cool. I don’t know how granola does it, but I’m seeing this for the first time, and it looks really good.
19 00:02:06.180 ⇒ 00:02:11.030 Samuel Roberts: Nice, yeah, I’ll have to play around with it. I wonder if there’s a way to pull stuff from that at all, but…
20 00:02:12.190 ⇒ 00:02:18.240 Mustafa Raja: Yeah. Oh, granola only knows about, you and them, right? It says you and them.
21 00:02:18.240 ⇒ 00:02:18.910 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, it’s not…
22 00:02:18.910 ⇒ 00:02:21.530 Mustafa Raja: I think Auto might be the better one here.
23 00:02:21.530 ⇒ 00:02:25.649 Samuel Roberts: I think so, well, if… yeah. Can it… can it join other meetings besides Zoom?
24 00:02:27.020 ⇒ 00:02:33.470 Samuel Roberts: I think so, yeah. Okay, that’s good, that’s the thing with granolas, is it was good for, like, any meeting that my computer is doing.
25 00:02:33.960 ⇒ 00:02:34.960 Mustafa Raja: Oh…
26 00:02:35.230 ⇒ 00:02:40.090 Samuel Roberts: It just uses the sound output, but if this can be joining Google Meet calls or other things…
27 00:02:40.490 ⇒ 00:02:41.770 Mustafa Raja: Oh yeah, yeah, it does.
28 00:02:41.900 ⇒ 00:02:44.019 Samuel Roberts: Alright, cool. Yeah, maybe we’ll have to play with it more.
29 00:02:47.020 ⇒ 00:02:49.539 Samuel Roberts: Alrighty, yeah, so,
30 00:02:50.160 ⇒ 00:03:02.900 Samuel Roberts: little housekeeping, obviously we bumped this back, but is everyone good if I bump this up to the same time that we do the Friday meeting? So, we’ll keep the Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday at 9am Eastern.
31 00:03:03.100 ⇒ 00:03:08.810 Samuel Roberts: And then we have 9.30 on Friday, I’m gonna bump this to 9.30 as well on Mondays. Does that work?
32 00:03:10.510 ⇒ 00:03:11.999 Casie Aviles: Yeah, that works for me as well.
33 00:03:13.160 ⇒ 00:03:20.620 Samuel Roberts: Okay, cool. Yeah, I just… I want to get it out of the way of the stand-up tonight. I kind of like having that first, so that we can all focus on the rest of the stuff.
34 00:03:21.190 ⇒ 00:03:22.420 Samuel Roberts: I’ll do that.
35 00:03:22.580 ⇒ 00:03:25.809 Samuel Roberts: Cool. Alright, I guess,
36 00:03:26.540 ⇒ 00:03:28.449 Samuel Roberts: Excuse me, sorry, stole a little.
37 00:03:28.660 ⇒ 00:03:30.730 Samuel Roberts: A little confessed here, but.
38 00:03:30.730 ⇒ 00:03:31.270 Rico Rejoso: I’m like…
39 00:03:31.530 ⇒ 00:03:32.290 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, go ahead.
40 00:03:32.980 ⇒ 00:03:41.560 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, I was gonna say, let’s wait for Utam to join the meeting. I also inform him regarding this, since we need,
41 00:03:41.730 ⇒ 00:03:49.369 Rico Rejoso: basically, want… what he wanted, for us to prioritize for the sprint. We need to get his feedback on that, or his suggestion.
42 00:03:49.370 ⇒ 00:03:55.769 Samuel Roberts: Totally. Okay, yeah, I was just… just checking to see if he said yes to this, so… I saw that. And there he is, perfect timing.
43 00:04:00.170 ⇒ 00:04:00.720 Rico Rejoso: How you doing?
44 00:04:00.720 ⇒ 00:04:01.380 Samuel Roberts: Oops me.
45 00:04:07.030 ⇒ 00:04:07.830 Uttam Kumaran: Hey, guys.
46 00:04:08.490 ⇒ 00:04:09.170 Samuel Roberts: Hey.
47 00:04:10.000 ⇒ 00:04:10.760 Rico Rejoso: Good morning.
48 00:04:14.420 ⇒ 00:04:16.529 Uttam Kumaran: Cool. Where are we at?
49 00:04:17.950 ⇒ 00:04:23.959 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, I was just discussing earlier, you know, bringing each other for their, Monday morning.
50 00:04:24.730 ⇒ 00:04:27.390 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, so this overlaps with the,
51 00:04:27.490 ⇒ 00:04:29.980 Samuel Roberts: a bunch of the stand-ups now, I have it standard time.
52 00:04:30.130 ⇒ 00:04:33.470 Samuel Roberts: So I was thinking about moving it up.
53 00:04:33.760 ⇒ 00:04:37.290 Samuel Roberts: So the same time as the Friday one, which is 9.30 East.
54 00:04:37.440 ⇒ 00:04:39.140 Samuel Roberts: coast,
55 00:04:40.190 ⇒ 00:04:42.960 Rico Rejoso: I guess that’s probably a little early for you, maybe, but…
56 00:04:43.110 ⇒ 00:04:47.219 Uttam Kumaran: I’ll be up, yeah, I wouldn’t… don’t worry, maybe I’ll join for sure.
57 00:04:47.220 ⇒ 00:04:55.050 Samuel Roberts: Okay, cool, yeah, because the other ones, we’re just doing it… we’re doing it 9, I think, East Coast, but we’ll keep Monday and Friday a half hour later, so…
58 00:04:55.350 ⇒ 00:04:55.930 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
59 00:04:57.060 ⇒ 00:04:57.610 Samuel Roberts: Cool.
60 00:04:58.310 ⇒ 00:05:04.780 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, Rico, so we can wait for you to talk about priorities for this, coming cycle.
61 00:05:05.310 ⇒ 00:05:23.440 Rico Rejoso: Yep, also, before we begin to our planning session, I groomed some of the tickets here based on the context that it has on its tickets, and some were not yet groomed, so I think we can discuss that one as we move to our grooming session, which I have scheduled for this week as well. You can check your calendar for it.
62 00:05:23.500 ⇒ 00:05:31.000 Rico Rejoso: For now, we need, Tom’s opinion and feedback in regards to the tickets that we can prioritize for this week.
63 00:05:31.140 ⇒ 00:05:45.870 Rico Rejoso: And, also, as you can see, we don’t have, or we haven’t put in any estimates yet, which we will also tackle during our grooming session. So, yeah, maybe, Tom, we can point out some of the tickets that we can prioritize for the spread.
64 00:05:45.870 ⇒ 00:05:51.640 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, definitely. I think the biggest thing is, one, to get the department’s work out.
65 00:05:52.050 ⇒ 00:05:55.939 Uttam Kumaran: Like, that I would like to see done.
66 00:05:57.820 ⇒ 00:06:08.870 Uttam Kumaran: And then the second piece is Mustafa and I worked yesterday on getting, sort of global transcript search working.
67 00:06:08.870 ⇒ 00:06:12.570 Samuel Roberts: Oh, nice. I saw that, yeah, that PR, I wasn’t sure exactly.
68 00:06:12.570 ⇒ 00:06:17.070 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, we implemented turbo puffer, which is a little bit…
69 00:06:17.190 ⇒ 00:06:21.560 Uttam Kumaran: I don’t know, I know we did a spike, and we arrived at, at least search, but…
70 00:06:21.650 ⇒ 00:06:39.560 Uttam Kumaran: we kind of, like, tried Turbo Puffer, and it was pretty cool and really flexible. So I know that this one is in, PR, and maybe, Mustafa, you can help to just fill out, like, what our initial goals are for that ticket, but that… that definitely needs…
71 00:06:39.670 ⇒ 00:06:45.310 Uttam Kumaran: a bit of grooming. But this is mainly for just
72 00:06:45.590 ⇒ 00:06:49.510 Uttam Kumaran: This is just a better version of our existing
73 00:06:49.760 ⇒ 00:06:56.150 Uttam Kumaran: search. It… we’re not… we haven’t yet implemented, like, like, a Finder-style search.
74 00:06:56.370 ⇒ 00:07:00.889 Uttam Kumaran: You know, where you can search across all assets, so that’ll be, like, the V2 for this.
75 00:07:00.890 ⇒ 00:07:01.860 Samuel Roberts: Okay, cool.
76 00:07:02.140 ⇒ 00:07:07.359 Samuel Roberts: So this is… this affected… I haven’t looked at the PR yet, but this affects that, like, the search above the meetings, and it just…
77 00:07:07.360 ⇒ 00:07:08.050 Uttam Kumaran: Yes.
78 00:07:08.050 ⇒ 00:07:09.819 Samuel Roberts: Does everything,
79 00:07:09.820 ⇒ 00:07:17.530 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, so basically, like, this looks through the summary and the transcript and the title, And participate.
80 00:07:17.530 ⇒ 00:07:18.430 Mustafa Raja: Until.
81 00:07:18.690 ⇒ 00:07:19.350 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
82 00:07:20.460 ⇒ 00:07:21.440 Samuel Roberts: Okay, cool.
83 00:07:22.530 ⇒ 00:07:25.430 Samuel Roberts: That’s sweet. I’m excited to try that out.
84 00:07:25.990 ⇒ 00:07:45.920 Mustafa Raja: Yeah. I… what I also need to do is, add the backfilling script to Dagster, so maybe we, maybe we can create a ticket about that. Backfilling to Dag… backfilling the, transcripts to, TurboPuffer, so we can search and search them.
85 00:07:47.130 ⇒ 00:07:47.810 Samuel Roberts: That makes sense.
86 00:07:47.810 ⇒ 00:07:49.180 Mustafa Raja: willing to…
87 00:07:51.940 ⇒ 00:07:53.869 Rico Rejoso: What was the backfilling transcript?
88 00:07:54.540 ⇒ 00:07:58.449 Mustafa Raja: backfilling transcripts to, TurboPuffer?
89 00:07:59.420 ⇒ 00:08:00.620 Rico Rejoso: do a profit, I should.
90 00:08:01.360 ⇒ 00:08:03.210 Samuel Roberts: And then moving forward, how does that…
91 00:08:03.720 ⇒ 00:08:05.989 Samuel Roberts: Is it already set up to do that, or…
92 00:08:05.990 ⇒ 00:08:15.309 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, yeah, we only need to do the backfill, and then those transcripts would be available to the search.
93 00:08:16.530 ⇒ 00:08:17.510 Samuel Roberts: Cool, cool.
94 00:08:17.630 ⇒ 00:08:21.909 Samuel Roberts: So is this on the main dashboard, or does this affect client hubs as well?
95 00:08:22.860 ⇒ 00:08:33.870 Mustafa Raja: For now, it’s only main. I didn’t want to do the client ones, because, firstly, we’ll have to segment it that way, no?
96 00:08:34.140 ⇒ 00:08:36.349 Samuel Roberts: That’s what I was… that’s kind of why I was asking, because I figured there’s more.
97 00:08:36.350 ⇒ 00:08:51.740 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, I didn’t create any sort of segmentation. It’s only one database that it searches through, or namespace. They call it namespaces, so it’s only one namespace that it searches through, which is, for now, universal.
98 00:08:51.740 ⇒ 00:08:56.399 Samuel Roberts: Okay, that’s cool for now, yeah. I think once we get the departments working, we can…
99 00:08:56.640 ⇒ 00:08:59.060 Samuel Roberts: Probably do some more,
100 00:08:59.550 ⇒ 00:09:05.220 Samuel Roberts: Structuring of that data by the clients and departments as well, so we can make it useful there, too.
101 00:09:05.220 ⇒ 00:09:05.990 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
102 00:09:05.990 ⇒ 00:09:08.520 Samuel Roberts: But that’s… yeah, global search has been for now.
103 00:09:10.080 ⇒ 00:09:10.660 Rico Rejoso: Okay.
104 00:09:11.400 ⇒ 00:09:16.940 Rico Rejoso: And I see a new ticket as well here, which is search results should indicate the reason.
105 00:09:18.980 ⇒ 00:09:20.239 Mustafa Raja: We also have this one.
106 00:09:20.240 ⇒ 00:09:43.750 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, yeah. So, if you… if you open up the ticket, I can… I can explain what’s… what’s needed over here. So, search results should, indicate the reason it got flagged. So, what we are doing is we have four fields that we are searching through, right? The title itself, and then the summary, and then the transcript, and then the participants. So.
107 00:09:43.750 ⇒ 00:09:51.379 Mustafa Raja: which thing got matched, we should be able to tell that, okay. And then the UI should represent that.
108 00:09:51.380 ⇒ 00:09:51.860 Samuel Roberts: That’ll…
109 00:09:52.080 ⇒ 00:09:53.550 Mustafa Raja: why this date?
110 00:09:53.550 ⇒ 00:09:54.000 Samuel Roberts: Cool.
111 00:09:54.000 ⇒ 00:10:04.219 Mustafa Raja: Pop-up. For now, the way I backfilled, it isn’t possible, but it is possible we… I’ll have to change the structure of the script.
112 00:10:04.220 ⇒ 00:10:23.729 Mustafa Raja: What I’m doing right now is I’m stringifying all of those fields and, putting them into one field content, and then, putting that into Turbo Puffer. Each of the fields, if they have their own field in TurboPuffer, we’ll be able to refer to that.
113 00:10:24.330 ⇒ 00:10:29.100 Samuel Roberts: That makes sense. So we can move that so it’s not one big content, is what you’re saying?
114 00:10:29.100 ⇒ 00:10:31.509 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Cool, great.
115 00:10:33.140 ⇒ 00:10:40.399 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, so maybe, Sam, you can also help me, you know, put contacts on here, and maybe I can turn it into a,
116 00:10:40.670 ⇒ 00:10:43.949 Rico Rejoso: I mean, groomed the ticket based on the, linear…
117 00:10:44.070 ⇒ 00:10:45.669 Rico Rejoso: I think it’s standard that we have.
118 00:10:45.840 ⇒ 00:10:49.660 Rico Rejoso: Once you put in the context for those new tickets, okay? Would that work?
119 00:10:50.160 ⇒ 00:10:52.080 Samuel Roberts: For, yeah,
120 00:10:52.520 ⇒ 00:11:00.529 Samuel Roberts: Actually, Mustafa might want to fill this one out, just because I don’t have the context of the exact… all I have is what he just said right now, but, okay.
121 00:11:01.240 ⇒ 00:11:04.069 Samuel Roberts: I can look at it after. But it makes rough sense.
122 00:11:04.070 ⇒ 00:11:20.909 Rico Rejoso: tickets already, yeah. Okay. I added those tickets to the cycle for now, and afterwards, once you put in the context, we can… I mean, I can finalize, I mean, the input, or make sure that all tickets are within standards, okay? Other than those tickets that we have already added, any more tickets that we should add.
123 00:11:21.790 ⇒ 00:11:26.999 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I mean, I don’t think that those search tickets are all, like, a priority for this week. They’re just…
124 00:11:27.100 ⇒ 00:11:30.220 Uttam Kumaran: things that need to get groomed. So…
125 00:11:30.320 ⇒ 00:11:36.120 Uttam Kumaran: I mean, for me, one is, like, getting this initial search thing out, getting departments done.
126 00:11:36.200 ⇒ 00:11:53.200 Uttam Kumaran: And then I really want to see us, I think, kind of theme of this week is to just wrap up, like, a simple version of a, like, post hoc dashboard. Just, I would like to see, in, like, one place, just the usage of all of the sort of core
127 00:11:53.410 ⇒ 00:11:55.650 Uttam Kumaran: Parts of, you know, the forge.
128 00:11:55.820 ⇒ 00:11:59.820 Uttam Kumaran: Is that something that… Can be developed.
129 00:12:02.100 ⇒ 00:12:08.819 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, I think, I mean, PostHog is in there, I’ve just been using it to check, like, who’s been accessing, but I believe it’s got, like, it’s logging…
130 00:12:09.180 ⇒ 00:12:14.669 Samuel Roberts: most events. If not, I’ll make sure it is logging specific events.
131 00:12:14.960 ⇒ 00:12:24.420 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, so could we create maybe just a dashboard for, like, ideally, we would want to see in just one dashboard, like, usage across all of the core
132 00:12:24.820 ⇒ 00:12:28.429 Uttam Kumaran: functionality. And I think that’s, like, a fair…
133 00:12:28.820 ⇒ 00:12:33.519 Uttam Kumaran: That’s probably a fair expectation just to do this week, and we can focus on getting that done.
134 00:12:33.900 ⇒ 00:12:34.720 Samuel Roberts: Yeah.
135 00:12:35.610 ⇒ 00:12:37.670 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, cause I’m gonna start to move…
136 00:12:37.790 ⇒ 00:12:42.319 Uttam Kumaran: I’m gonna start to try to work with PM and sales to get them to use stuff, but…
137 00:12:42.460 ⇒ 00:12:44.610 Uttam Kumaran: If we don’t have that clear, like, wait a minute.
138 00:12:44.610 ⇒ 00:12:45.370 Samuel Roberts: Totally.
139 00:12:45.370 ⇒ 00:12:48.619 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, so… I… I would say…
140 00:12:48.770 ⇒ 00:12:52.280 Uttam Kumaran: definitely work with, AI on creating
141 00:12:52.690 ⇒ 00:12:56.489 Uttam Kumaran: Like, a scaffolding for this dashboard, but…
142 00:12:56.630 ⇒ 00:13:03.710 Uttam Kumaran: it would be great by Friday, or I don’t know when our reviews are, Rico, but it would be great to…
143 00:13:03.930 ⇒ 00:13:08.439 Uttam Kumaran: See, like, a version of this that just shows… The usage for every…
144 00:13:08.730 ⇒ 00:13:17.269 Uttam Kumaran: you know, major function that, like, that we’re using. I care less about who’s using at the moment, more about, like.
145 00:13:17.960 ⇒ 00:13:25.870 Uttam Kumaran: What, like, at what rate all of the different agents, and the core, like, you know, whatever features they’re gonna use.
146 00:13:26.950 ⇒ 00:13:32.249 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, I’ll see what PostHog is already, like, keeping track of, because there might be a good way to do it right in PostHog.
147 00:13:32.390 ⇒ 00:13:37.770 Samuel Roberts: I just really dropped the thing in there, and it seems to be logging events.
148 00:13:37.770 ⇒ 00:13:44.490 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, you’ll be able to see it all in postdoc. I think it just has to take some… it’s gonna just take some dashboarding work.
149 00:13:44.490 ⇒ 00:13:45.650 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
150 00:13:45.650 ⇒ 00:13:46.320 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
151 00:13:47.360 ⇒ 00:13:51.270 Samuel Roberts: But do you think this, like, lives in posthog, or do you want something, like, on the… on the forge?
152 00:13:51.270 ⇒ 00:13:54.720 Uttam Kumaran: No, no, no, no, no, this is just for us, this can live in postog.
153 00:13:54.720 ⇒ 00:13:57.750 Samuel Roberts: Okay, okay, that’s what I thought, but I just wasn’t 100% sure the way you were talking about it.
154 00:13:57.750 ⇒ 00:14:02.129 Uttam Kumaran: No, no, no, yeah, just so we have measurement, because what I’m gonna try to do this…
155 00:14:02.350 ⇒ 00:14:08.880 Uttam Kumaran: this, I think, kind of could give the theme of, like, this month is, one, I’m sort of not as…
156 00:14:09.010 ⇒ 00:14:23.060 Uttam Kumaran: locked in on a bunch of client work, so I’m trying to get some of our features adopted, especially by the PM team. Yeah. So, a couple of these are gonna be… I think if we can get this working first.
157 00:14:23.360 ⇒ 00:14:28.029 Uttam Kumaran: I can then focus this month on getting them into the platform to use.
158 00:14:28.150 ⇒ 00:14:30.869 Uttam Kumaran: various things.
159 00:14:31.340 ⇒ 00:14:36.599 Uttam Kumaran: for example, I want… I will probably make another… do another iteration on the linear ticket generator.
160 00:14:36.600 ⇒ 00:14:39.759 Samuel Roberts: Probably do another iteration on.
161 00:14:40.370 ⇒ 00:14:52.460 Uttam Kumaran: a few other parts of the platform, so… but this is the first way I can just ensure that, like, okay, how many people are opening up a meeting per day? How many people are using the different four functions per day? Things like that.
162 00:14:52.460 ⇒ 00:14:53.730 Samuel Roberts: Definitely, yeah.
163 00:14:53.950 ⇒ 00:14:55.050 Samuel Roberts: Cool, cool. Okay.
164 00:14:56.900 ⇒ 00:15:00.510 Rico Rejoso: Yeah, so I think we don’t have a ticket for that one yet, so can you check?
165 00:15:00.610 ⇒ 00:15:04.009 Rico Rejoso: this would work, and maybe Sam, you could provide context on this one.
166 00:15:06.420 ⇒ 00:15:11.449 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, yeah, I can do that, if you just, assign me there, so I’ll have it in my email.
167 00:15:11.880 ⇒ 00:15:14.050 Rico Rejoso: No worries, I’ll mention your app a little bit as well.
168 00:15:14.240 ⇒ 00:15:15.420 Samuel Roberts: Perfect, okay, cool.
169 00:15:16.870 ⇒ 00:15:17.630 Rico Rejoso: Bing.
170 00:15:19.910 ⇒ 00:15:21.100 Rico Rejoso: And…
171 00:15:24.870 ⇒ 00:15:30.110 Rico Rejoso: Any other tickets from the backlogs that we can add to the current cycle?
172 00:15:30.880 ⇒ 00:15:34.960 Uttam Kumaran: But, Rico, it depends on, like, our… what is our total points, and, like…
173 00:15:34.960 ⇒ 00:15:40.480 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, what are we… what is the… the plan… what is that for the week, actually? Like, how are we looking at that now?
174 00:15:40.480 ⇒ 00:15:45.709 Rico Rejoso: So, if none of these are groomed, then I think you guys should groom this first, to then set points.
175 00:15:45.750 ⇒ 00:15:49.010 Uttam Kumaran: And then Rico used that to determine the…
176 00:15:49.750 ⇒ 00:16:04.169 Uttam Kumaran: like, what we can take on, because you can’t do it the other way. It has to happen first, like, all these tickets… typically for, like, a meeting like this, we would come in with the tickets already groomed, so… so I think I’ve given you guys a couple that I think would be helpful. It’s just, like, getting the…
177 00:16:04.170 ⇒ 00:16:10.719 Uttam Kumaran: getting the initial turbo puffer PR through, getting departments in, and getting this postdoc dashboard,
178 00:16:11.370 ⇒ 00:16:18.360 Uttam Kumaran: There’s also a couple of, feedback items from Hannah on the marketing assets.
179 00:16:18.660 ⇒ 00:16:19.190 Samuel Roberts: Yeah.
180 00:16:19.190 ⇒ 00:16:23.949 Uttam Kumaran: But I, I think just… that’s probably what we have time for this week.
181 00:16:24.820 ⇒ 00:16:35.029 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, I would… with the marketing stuff, I had kind of not done the bulk search, or the bulk edit thing, because I figured that was more, but if that’s within…
182 00:16:35.450 ⇒ 00:16:38.609 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I mean, again, like, I would ticket it out, and then…
183 00:16:38.610 ⇒ 00:16:48.940 Samuel Roberts: Exactly, okay. Yeah, yeah. Okay, yeah, I did kind of what I thought was kind of within scope here and useful, but definitely will add that as another ticket then.
184 00:16:49.700 ⇒ 00:16:56.290 Samuel Roberts: And then what are we looking at for, like, total internal time… like, points.
185 00:16:56.440 ⇒ 00:16:59.489 Samuel Roberts: This week, is what has been allocated, I guess.
186 00:17:00.140 ⇒ 00:17:01.110 Rico Rejoso: Yes,
187 00:17:01.470 ⇒ 00:17:10.180 Rico Rejoso: For allocation, we have, 10 points both for casting room staff, what to spend within the week for AI internal stuff, and 5 points for, USEM.
188 00:17:10.619 ⇒ 00:17:11.669 Samuel Roberts: Okay, cool.
189 00:17:11.920 ⇒ 00:17:17.809 Rico Rejoso: So, yes, as per them, we would be grooming this one, so maybe I’ll reschedule our…
190 00:17:18.089 ⇒ 00:17:27.949 Rico Rejoso: grooming session as well. I’ll try to find a time that… I mean, earlier this week, so we can get that done, and have it prepared for our, next dining session, and yes, maybe taking out some
191 00:17:28.099 ⇒ 00:17:40.060 Rico Rejoso: For the marketing assets, as you mentioned, and you can track it by tomorrow’s stand-up, and see if we’re still within allocations, or within the allocations for this week, okay?
192 00:17:41.540 ⇒ 00:17:44.699 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, when is that scheduled for? Right now?
193 00:17:45.470 ⇒ 00:17:46.300 Rico Rejoso: I’m sorry?
194 00:17:46.300 ⇒ 00:17:51.010 Samuel Roberts: When did… when was that calendar event already, and if you’re gonna bump it up, I’m just curious. I don’t have my calendar.
195 00:17:51.740 ⇒ 00:17:55.139 Rico Rejoso: Yes, that is scheduled on Thursday.
196 00:17:55.960 ⇒ 00:17:57.100 Rico Rejoso: Okay.
197 00:17:57.100 ⇒ 00:17:58.280 Uttam Kumaran: on disaster.
198 00:17:58.940 ⇒ 00:18:01.860 Rico Rejoso: Grooming session is on Thursday, 3.30 Eastern.
199 00:18:01.860 ⇒ 00:18:07.539 Uttam Kumaran: But, like, I guess, Rico, like, none of these tickets are groomed right now, so you have to do a grooming, like, today.
200 00:18:07.980 ⇒ 00:18:11.110 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, that’s what he was saying, to bump up the meeting. I just wasn’t sure when the original time had been.
201 00:18:11.110 ⇒ 00:18:12.190 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, okay.
202 00:18:12.190 ⇒ 00:18:13.889 Samuel Roberts: We may want to keep that…
203 00:18:14.320 ⇒ 00:18:17.770 Uttam Kumaran: I would probably… like, you probably have, like, to do…
204 00:18:18.000 ⇒ 00:18:21.760 Uttam Kumaran: You probably have to just spend, like, a couple hours this week, both of y’all, on just.
205 00:18:21.760 ⇒ 00:18:22.170 Samuel Roberts: Yeah.
206 00:18:22.170 ⇒ 00:18:24.620 Uttam Kumaran: Rooming the next set of tickets.
207 00:18:24.740 ⇒ 00:18:32.210 Uttam Kumaran: I think, for me, I’m gonna… I’ll get you guys the, sort of, next week or two of priorities, this week.
208 00:18:32.490 ⇒ 00:18:40.800 Uttam Kumaran: Like, I already have some ideas from the PM… I’ll have some ideas from the PM team, and then, Rico, I don’t see, like, a…
209 00:18:41.170 ⇒ 00:18:44.219 Uttam Kumaran: Project reviews scheduled for this team yet.
210 00:18:44.490 ⇒ 00:18:58.560 Uttam Kumaran: But, like, the… kind of what we’re gonna be doing is we’re gonna be running, sort of, the internal teams very similar to how we run external teams, which is basically just the same processes. In this sense, I’ll be the client, and so we’ll run stand-ups.
211 00:18:58.610 ⇒ 00:19:06.509 Uttam Kumaran: There should be a grooming session that the client doesn’t necessarily need to be in, and then there needs to be a clear…
212 00:19:06.650 ⇒ 00:19:15.980 Uttam Kumaran: way for us to demo work, so that’ll be, like, that weekly project review. And then also in that project review, the team can gather, like, next steps.
213 00:19:15.990 ⇒ 00:19:27.300 Uttam Kumaran: Of course, like, we’re internal, so I’m gonna be sending over, like, things to work on in Slack. Like, I will… I will send this week what the priority is gonna be for next week, before the weekends.
214 00:19:27.340 ⇒ 00:19:31.649 Uttam Kumaran: But I… I would like to see those… those things all get scheduled, Rico.
215 00:19:31.740 ⇒ 00:19:41.800 Uttam Kumaran: And we’ll go over this in the delivery meeting too, but yeah, I want to make sure we have that project review booked. And then, yeah, I think probably you and Sam just need to spend time this week.
216 00:19:41.800 ⇒ 00:19:43.990 Samuel Roberts: Grooming. It’s gonna be a bit painful.
217 00:19:43.990 ⇒ 00:19:55.960 Uttam Kumaran: But I think the biggest thing, probably, also, is we’re gonna… you’ll get a sense of, like, how painful grooming is, and that’s gonna be something that we’re gonna tackle on how to help the PM team do that better.
218 00:19:56.510 ⇒ 00:20:00.030 Uttam Kumaran: But I would do it manually. I mean, Sam, you’ve done this for a while.
219 00:20:00.030 ⇒ 00:20:00.730 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, yeah.
220 00:20:00.730 ⇒ 00:20:14.400 Uttam Kumaran: You know, but, like, I think that’s gonna be one of the things over the month that we’re gonna try to help the PM team on, is how can they go from a client requirements plus a technical input into, like, a structured ticket?
221 00:20:14.640 ⇒ 00:20:22.140 Uttam Kumaran: So, both the creation of tickets, and then also we have a little bit of a grooming bot already created, so it’ll be the validation of grooming.
222 00:20:22.370 ⇒ 00:20:27.110 Uttam Kumaran: But yeah, if you guys can spend some time this week on…
223 00:20:27.590 ⇒ 00:20:35.220 Uttam Kumaran: just grooming… these… these tickets I’ve already marked as urgent, so these are probably the most important to… to have groomed pointed.
224 00:20:35.600 ⇒ 00:20:40.539 Uttam Kumaran: So that when we go into our next planning, we can bring those in.
225 00:20:42.030 ⇒ 00:20:45.549 Samuel Roberts: Alright, so I’ll start with the urgent ones and this cycle, right?
226 00:20:45.840 ⇒ 00:20:50.159 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I would say I marked… I’ve marked the ones as urgent, and then this cycle.
227 00:20:50.410 ⇒ 00:20:58.480 Uttam Kumaran: It’s just the ones above this, so… Yeah, exactly. Okay. So also, can you mark, this role-based ask control as urgent, too?
228 00:20:58.620 ⇒ 00:21:00.490 Samuel Roberts: That’s what I was just gonna ask about, because that seems…
229 00:21:00.700 ⇒ 00:21:17.300 Uttam Kumaran: I wrote the PRD, yeah, I wrote, like, the general structure for this. I probably need… I mean, same, I just did, like, what I do, but the implementation side, like, I would say I’ll leave it to you to think about, but all the details on, like, how we should do this are in here.
230 00:21:17.300 ⇒ 00:21:22.409 Uttam Kumaran: This is gonna be… this is something also, like, I kind of…
231 00:21:22.770 ⇒ 00:21:26.719 Uttam Kumaran: This one ticket needs to definitely be broken out into several.
232 00:21:26.720 ⇒ 00:21:30.550 Samuel Roberts: And then I can assign… once I… once I get a sense of that, I can…
233 00:21:30.550 ⇒ 00:21:33.110 Uttam Kumaran: We can start to plan out when we can tackle that.
234 00:21:33.350 ⇒ 00:21:36.439 Uttam Kumaran: Roughly, it’s just starting to add some security on.
235 00:21:37.380 ⇒ 00:21:38.950 Uttam Kumaran: The forest, basically.
236 00:21:38.950 ⇒ 00:21:42.529 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, no, I think that’s… that’s a really important one.
237 00:21:42.900 ⇒ 00:21:46.860 Samuel Roberts: So, and definitely will be broken down, because I saw the document, I didn’t go through it.
238 00:21:47.100 ⇒ 00:21:54.620 Samuel Roberts: with a… with a, like, fine brush, but I, saw a lot, and I was like, okay, good, this will be plenty of things to break out.
239 00:21:56.020 ⇒ 00:21:56.720 Samuel Roberts: Cool.
240 00:21:57.640 ⇒ 00:22:04.349 Rico Rejoso: And, I scheduled this print review, this Friday, around 2PM Central Time.
241 00:22:04.660 ⇒ 00:22:17.530 Rico Rejoso: You can check that out. And maybe we can also take a look for the role-based access once we get a sense of the points that we will be spending for these tickets. Maybe now we can… instead of, like, around 10 minutes.
242 00:22:17.720 ⇒ 00:22:19.240 Rico Rejoso: Maybe you can,
243 00:22:19.540 ⇒ 00:22:24.889 Rico Rejoso: Oh, Sam, help me out on how many points should we spend for the things that we have for this cycle?
244 00:22:27.050 ⇒ 00:22:28.690 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, I mean, I… go ahead.
245 00:22:28.690 ⇒ 00:22:31.589 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, for these, it’s gonna take more than 10 minutes, Rico, like…
246 00:22:31.590 ⇒ 00:22:32.720 Samuel Roberts: That’s what I was gonna say, yeah.
247 00:22:32.720 ⇒ 00:22:38.240 Uttam Kumaran: None of these have, like, many of these don’t have descriptions, like, you’re gonna have to just spend time with Sam.
248 00:22:38.680 ⇒ 00:22:40.169 Uttam Kumaran: So, working through these.
249 00:22:41.420 ⇒ 00:22:55.049 Uttam Kumaran: Like, for example, if you open the ticket, there’s nothing in there. So that’s… I’m just trying to make the point that, like, these… you just have to… you all have to spend time together and outline exactly, like, okay, what are going to be the parts of the dashboard, and then break that out further into tickets.
250 00:22:55.410 ⇒ 00:23:02.819 Rico Rejoso: Yes, yeah, I’ll schedule a time with you, Sam, so maybe we can meet on this, once you guys are done putting on the contacts for each, okay?
251 00:23:04.850 ⇒ 00:23:11.560 Rico Rejoso: So I’ll mention you guys on all of the circuits that we have for the sockets. Yeah, I think that’s it. Let me schedule a meeting with, let me grab a time with you.
252 00:23:11.810 ⇒ 00:23:14.109 Rico Rejoso: Yeah. Today, just today or tomorrow.
253 00:23:14.480 ⇒ 00:23:16.910 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, yeah.
254 00:23:16.970 ⇒ 00:23:23.769 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, find some… stays a little busy with stuff, but if you can find time, definitely. If not, I’ll try to get through some of them.
255 00:23:24.240 ⇒ 00:23:30.050 Samuel Roberts: Just adding context, and then we can go through and really groom them together so you can get a sense of, like, what that all takes.
256 00:23:30.670 ⇒ 00:23:31.559 Rico Rejoso: Thank you so much.
257 00:23:31.830 ⇒ 00:23:34.490 Rico Rejoso: Yep, without anything to add on?
258 00:23:35.190 ⇒ 00:23:40.570 Uttam Kumaran: No, that’s it. Yeah, I mean, I would like to see us have these couple of tickets room today.
259 00:23:40.570 ⇒ 00:23:41.100 Rico Rejoso: Definitely.
260 00:23:41.100 ⇒ 00:23:44.319 Uttam Kumaran: But please just drive… just drive towards that as much as you can.
261 00:23:44.850 ⇒ 00:23:45.450 Rico Rejoso: Yes.
262 00:23:46.740 ⇒ 00:23:47.420 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
263 00:23:48.280 ⇒ 00:23:53.760 Rico Rejoso: That’s it, yes, Mustafa, some contacts on the sales tickets, and we’ll groom it today, okay?
264 00:23:54.050 ⇒ 00:23:55.300 Rico Rejoso: Thank you so much.
265 00:23:57.090 ⇒ 00:23:57.949 Samuel Roberts: Thank you, guys.
266 00:23:57.950 ⇒ 00:23:59.150 Mustafa Raja: Thank you.
267 00:23:59.450 ⇒ 00:24:00.190 Casie Aviles: Thank you.
268 00:24:00.550 ⇒ 00:24:01.110 Samuel Roberts: Right.
269 00:24:01.890 ⇒ 00:24:02.510 Mustafa Raja: Bye.
