Join Adam and dade as they discuss how to think about system architecture, how to design for flexibility without overengineering too much, and how they are going to layout the initial Natlas project. Note from dade: I’m very sorry for my audio quality. You might have noticed that I rearranged the whole office and we used different recording software this time. You know that saying about changing too many variables at once? Well that bit me this time, but we’d already finished recording the whole episode before I knew just how bad it was. It’s fixed for future episodes and I’ve done as much as I know how to make it suck less in this episode.
