| 5 | ## Round table |
| 6 | |
| 7 | - zimbatm |
| 8 | - had no spoons to think about cache |
| 9 | - vcunat |
| 10 | - expensive nixos tests that could be improved |
| 11 | - noticed `nixos-disk-image.drv` steps taking a long time in send/receive |
| 12 | phase |
| 13 | - hexa |
| 14 | - unhappy with the board decision to let Anduril sponsor, like delroth. At an |
| 15 | impass. We need to find a way to work on this together. |
| 16 | - not sure if delroth is ultimately out. |
| 17 | - don't want to burn out if delroth is gone. |
| 18 | - I also don't want to invest time, when the org agrees to military |
| 19 | sponsorship. |
| 20 | - Next step: get to the policy, connect with delroth to see if we can keep |
| 21 | working on it together or not. |

| 26 | - Do we have a database for the pads? |
| 27 | - hexa: should be colocated with the machine. |
| 28 | - Jonas: do we have hardware for this? |
| 29 | - hexa: we can try it on caliban. If it grows too big we can move it. |
