43 00:02:24.330 00:02:26.909 Nicolas Sucari: yeah. Arrange everything for you all the time

44 00:02:27.760 00:02:32.299 Nicolas Sucari: that you know how to like, pour the year one, then everything.

45 00:02:40.120 00:02:43.620 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, it’s just pouring it right over. It’s just pouring it right over right.

46 00:02:44.410 00:02:46.520 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah, but there are kind of small

47 00:02:46.660 00:02:49.640 Nicolas Sucari: techniques that you can apply. So it’s better.

48 00:02:49.940 00:02:50.520 Uttam Kumaran: Okay. Okay.

59 00:04:37.480 00:04:41.980 Uttam Kumaran: I guess. Just maybe we talk about some of the big priorities.

60 00:04:42.718 00:04:45.510 Uttam Kumaran: Today, I think the biggest thing is

61 00:04:45.850 00:04:49.050 Uttam Kumaran: one. We wanna just move everything over

62 00:04:49.280 00:04:59.869 Uttam Kumaran: to real. So, Ryan, maybe me and you. I know we wanted to meet last week. I just kinda like was really short on time. Maybe I’m gonna set up some time between us.

63 00:05:00.780 00:05:01.919 Uttam Kumaran: An a.

64 00:05:02.250 00:05:04.669 Ryan Luke Daque: This. You’re referring to Stella right?

65 00:05:05.040 00:05:07.650 Uttam Kumaran: I’m referring to pool parts.

66 00:05:07.650 00:05:08.585 Ryan Luke Daque: Oh, pool parts! Gotcha.

67 00:05:08.820 00:05:13.519 Nicolas Sucari: I think there is a pull request ready for that. Right, Brian. You’ve been working that.

68 00:05:14.210 00:05:20.300 Ryan Luke Daque: For real there’s 1 for, like Kim’s Weekly report. But the other yeah, not.

69 00:05:20.690 00:05:21.080 Nicolas Sucari: Okay.

70 00:05:21.080 00:05:23.100 Ryan Luke Daque: The others aren’t there yet? Yeah.

71 00:05:24.010 00:05:32.989 Uttam Kumaran: So yeah, let’s discuss like the like, the moving everything else to real. So I’m just gonna put a put a ticket in there right now for

72 00:05:33.280 00:05:33.926 Uttam Kumaran: that

73 00:05:44.530 00:05:47.400 Uttam Kumaran: And then I think the biggest thing

74 00:05:48.036 00:05:52.900 Uttam Kumaran: apart from that, Brian, is gonna be everything for elementary.

75 00:05:56.880 00:05:58.620 Uttam Kumaran: basically want to just

76 00:05:58.680 00:06:10.740 Uttam Kumaran: like, actually just close out whatever the current issues are. And then like talk through like, how we want to do testing basically, and like all the sla’s and things like that.

77 00:06:13.170 00:06:15.580 Uttam Kumaran: I know we started like a doc

78 00:06:16.100 00:06:18.509 Uttam Kumaran: last week. I just haven’t been able to

79 00:06:19.390 00:06:21.158 Uttam Kumaran: check in on that

80 00:06:22.540 00:06:25.690 Uttam Kumaran: But that’s like the biggest priority. I think everything else

81 00:06:25.730 00:06:28.049 Uttam Kumaran: is really gonna be related to

82 00:06:29.013 00:06:30.520 Uttam Kumaran: needs from

83 00:06:31.480 00:06:32.200 Uttam Kumaran: a

84 00:06:32.420 00:06:41.069 Uttam Kumaran: it’s gonna be related to needs from Jacob side. Or also there’s 1 thing around cleaning up Snowflake. That’s just like a

85 00:06:42.360 00:06:45.049 Uttam Kumaran: like a backlog task that I want to do

86 00:06:45.398 00:06:57.740 Uttam Kumaran: and then once we have a good strategy around testing, we have a bunch of backlog tickets around adding elementary. So I wanna leave you guys with some time this week just to focus on that. And then anything basically

87 00:06:58.250 00:07:02.089 Uttam Kumaran: that Jacob needs for

88 00:07:02.200 00:07:04.820 Uttam Kumaran: shipping or the pro analysis.

89 00:07:06.880 00:07:08.589 Uttam Kumaran: that’s what we’ll pass over.

90 00:07:09.390 00:07:10.040 Brian Pei: Yep.

91 00:07:10.220 00:07:13.579 Brian Pei: I’ve been a dming, Jacob, too, every now and then about it.

92 00:07:13.930 00:07:14.560 Uttam Kumaran: Cool.

93 00:07:14.560 00:07:18.109 Brian Pei: Random little stuff I think on Friday or Thursday I

94 00:07:18.190 00:07:23.199 Brian Pei: ping them in the Channel to get the

95 00:07:23.270 00:07:25.230 Brian Pei: warehouse like.

96 00:07:25.510 00:07:29.130 Brian Pei: Oh, the warehouse. Latin long in shipments.

97 00:07:31.620 00:07:33.449 Brian Pei: yeah, I pinged him on it. I don’t

98 00:07:33.470 00:07:35.850 Brian Pei: think it’s merged yet, but I did do it.

99 00:07:36.770 00:07:38.100 Uttam Kumaran: I think I merged it.

100 00:07:38.270 00:07:40.720 Brian Pei: Oh, you merged it. Okay, perfect. I didn’t see that.

101 00:07:41.980 00:07:46.390 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I think we’re good on that. But yeah, I wanna leave time for small stuff like that.

102 00:07:47.043 00:07:51.586 Uttam Kumaran: And then just consider like, okay, this week. Let’s just do 2 big things. One is.

103 00:07:52.070 00:07:56.080 Uttam Kumaran: So you like, basically make sure elementary. And all the tests.

104 00:07:56.260 00:07:58.580 Uttam Kumaran: are you in a good place? And we know

105 00:07:59.290 00:08:06.550 Uttam Kumaran: basically that if there is a failure, it’s like a real failure. And then we have a process for adding new ones, because

106 00:08:07.025 00:08:18.410 Uttam Kumaran: we like Priya has time to kind of do that. So we’ll we’ll pass those new ones to her. The second thing is basically migration of everything over to real, so we can close out

107 00:08:18.490 00:08:19.549 Uttam Kumaran: byte. Dash

108 00:08:20.468 00:08:22.409 Uttam Kumaran: those will be the biggest

109 00:08:22.770 00:08:24.156 Uttam Kumaran: 2 things.

110 00:08:25.700 00:08:31.770 Uttam Kumaran: so I think if if I think the real stuff I want to have a meeting today on that. So we just map out

111 00:08:31.840 00:08:36.980 Uttam Kumaran: what’s remaining? But, Brian, like, what else do you think is remaining on like.

112 00:08:37.860 00:08:43.752 Uttam Kumaran: do you wanna have? Should we do it? Should we have a chat about elementary stuff, or

113 00:08:44.868 00:08:46.380 Uttam Kumaran: what do you think.

114 00:08:47.280 00:08:49.320 Brian Pei: Yeah, we can chat about elementary

115 00:08:52.380 00:08:53.680 Brian Pei: tomorrow.

116 00:08:53.790 00:08:55.119 Brian Pei: Okay? So I can

117 00:08:56.430 00:08:59.909 Brian Pei: kind of write down. I’m writing down a rubric.

118 00:09:00.100 00:09:01.120 Brian Pei: 4

119 00:09:02.860 00:09:07.060 Brian Pei: best practices, elementary data testing

120 00:09:07.450 00:09:13.399 Brian Pei: for any client. Right? It’s it’s like it’ll be used for pool parts. But

121 00:09:13.980 00:09:21.489 Brian Pei: but what I’m writing should be a document that people can follow when we set it up anywhere. Right? That’s to my, that’s my understanding.

122 00:09:21.770 00:09:29.109 Uttam Kumaran: That’s correct. And I’ve taken our notes and place them here. But yes, basically, it’s like.

123 00:09:29.120 00:09:32.070 Uttam Kumaran: I want us to create, like for

124 00:09:32.300 00:09:40.109 Uttam Kumaran: for any ae work, we’re going to install elementary. And basically, this is going to be where we do testing

125 00:09:40.638 00:09:42.629 Uttam Kumaran: and the nice thing is

126 00:09:42.720 00:09:49.089 Uttam Kumaran: to save us some headache. This is gonna be our way of basically trying to avoid just like failure.

127 00:09:49.270 00:09:52.919 Uttam Kumaran: like basically like having so many like random

128 00:09:53.189 00:09:57.599 Uttam Kumaran: duplicate issues or things like that. I think we’re at the point now where we can basically

129 00:09:57.850 00:10:02.010 Uttam Kumaran: leverage elementary to kind of handle that as we build models.

130 00:10:02.270 00:10:04.249 Uttam Kumaran: Also, I think this is a great

131 00:10:04.450 00:10:11.999 Uttam Kumaran: like selling point. So yeah, you’re right, is like, this is going to be, basically, how do we establish Sla’s? What are the types of tests, we run

132 00:10:12.500 00:10:18.870 Uttam Kumaran: things around naming. And then also, like, basically, How do, how do things get handled in slack?

133 00:10:21.200 00:10:27.280 Uttam Kumaran: so part of it is like establishing that like contract. And then I wanna just basically try it out.

134 00:10:27.460 00:10:33.999 Uttam Kumaran: So I wanna, I’ll 1st we’ll we’ll write this. And then basically, we’re like, okay, how do we move Stella and pull parts

135 00:10:34.280 00:10:35.430 Uttam Kumaran: to this?

136 00:10:35.580 00:10:36.960 Uttam Kumaran: And then

137 00:10:37.510 00:10:41.930 Uttam Kumaran: like, basically use this. So to say, like, Hey, this is how we do testing basically.

138 00:10:43.400 00:10:43.970 Brian Pei: Cool.

139 00:10:44.350 00:10:50.140 Brian Pei: Yeah, give me today to draft something up so that I can review it and and rewrite it.

140 00:10:50.970 00:10:54.380 Brian Pei: Tomorrow, tomorrow, Wednesday, I’ll let you know how far I get by end of day.

141 00:10:55.440 00:10:56.759 Uttam Kumaran: Okay. Okay, great.

142 00:11:01.430 00:11:09.370 Uttam Kumaran: I’m just gonna put a, I’m just gonna put like, 30 min on for tomorrow, and we can move it if we need to. But just so, I don’t forget.

143 00:11:23.920 00:11:29.960 Nicolas Sucari: Okay. So apart from that, we need to start setting up real for Stella. Right.

144 00:11:30.640 00:11:31.480 Uttam Kumaran: Yes.

145 00:11:31.720 00:11:40.089 Uttam Kumaran: So that’s also a task that’s open in that process. I want to just make sure that we have it documented

146 00:11:40.430 00:11:42.420 Uttam Kumaran: like, kind of like what the steps?

147 00:11:42.970 00:11:44.530 Uttam Kumaran: R, basically.

148 00:11:46.370 00:11:54.949 Uttam Kumaran: so, Ryan, we could also walk through that today. Basically, I can just like, lay out what are the steps. I think that process I don’t know, Nico like, do we want to do

149 00:11:55.540 00:12:02.879 Uttam Kumaran: in tango, or do we want to? Just maybe do it like as in a in a zoom, or like, what do you think is best.

150 00:12:03.260 00:12:08.839 Nicolas Sucari: I don’t think we can do it in tango, because it’s not like tango. Just lets you.

151 00:12:09.190 00:12:11.090 Nicolas Sucari: and like

152 00:12:11.510 00:12:17.480 Nicolas Sucari: record the screen on a chrome tab. Right? I think, or I, yeah, or a navigation tab.

153 00:12:17.590 00:12:24.999 Nicolas Sucari: It doesn’t record your entire screen, so probably we should do it in the meeting and then document it in notion I can do that.

154 00:12:25.420 00:12:25.745 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

155 00:12:27.843 00:12:34.309 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah, let’s let’s jump in a call today and we can. If you show us, then I can write all the documentation.

156 00:12:34.920 00:12:35.947 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, okay, great.

157 00:12:37.540 00:12:43.419 Uttam Kumaran: yeah. That way. Again, we just have, like internal docs on how to do it. Real, has it? It’s just

158 00:12:43.550 00:12:45.680 Uttam Kumaran: their docs are improving. So.

159 00:12:46.520 00:12:46.920 Nicolas Sucari: Okay.

160 00:12:50.640 00:12:52.499 Nicolas Sucari: I don’t know what time today

161 00:12:52.850 00:12:54.910 Nicolas Sucari: he’s are you available.

162 00:12:54.910 00:12:58.540 Uttam Kumaran: How about we do it right after the de meeting?

163 00:12:59.350 00:13:00.470 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah, okay.

164 00:13:02.100 00:13:02.820 Ryan Luke Daque: What time is that?

165 00:13:03.260 00:13:03.700 Nicolas Sucari: Kale.

166 00:13:04.400 00:13:05.577 Uttam Kumaran: That is at

167 00:13:05.970 00:13:07.588 Nicolas Sucari: 2 h from now. I think right.

168 00:13:07.820 00:13:09.336 Ryan Luke Daque: 2 h from now. Gotcha.

169 00:13:13.000 00:13:16.209 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, that gives you just a little bit of time to like, get some things organized.
