Uma Nachiappan’s Design Notebook

A Doc Czar doc czarring and processor designing…

Week of 23 Sept 2024

  • figuring out how to admin!
  • team meetings scheduled and started
  • trying to get all the design notebooks on the site and have new members working on onboarding, with old members continuing their previous work
  • continuing to re-draft site docs

Week of 30 Sept 2024

  • had some issues with a few labs & CMake (various development environment differences, cmake version differences)
  • signed up for VIP Showcase and got volunteers for the table
  • got an email for Rising Violets (fundraising opportunity)

Week of 7 Oct 2024

  • attendance/dn issues
  • spoke to people about transitioning to core/AMBA development
  • had a mini crisis about not paying enough attention to PRs and DNs

Week of 14 Oct 2024

  • VIP showcase! Our three QR codes against the world (and the robot next to us). Had some recruitment! and students who already applied also showed up.
  • Started actually assessing where people were with DN progress –> thinking about midterm grading/reports

Week of 21 Oct 2024

  • midterm reports! and getting people to actually push their notebooks – looking a little sparse as I write this (including my own). I don’t want the C train but who knows, that might be where this is going.
  • procrastinating on site docs as usual
  • need to check in with core team leads to see what’s going on – no serious commits since last semester
