A
It's
actually
return
is
quite
low,
actually
quite
surprised
because
I
thought:
okay,
if
we're
offering
an
ability
to
pay,
but
we
have
to
develop,
develop
it
I
would
think
I
would
get
get
some
more
response,
but
so
far
not
too
many
people
are
taking
and
that's
part
of
the
the
learning
I
think
that
yeah
yeah.
So
it's
about
building
a
great
team,
I
thought
the
offer
was
compelling,
but
obviously
we
need
to
do
more,
but
yeah.
A
B
A
team
I,
don't
I,
guess
I
would
say,
I,
don't
know
the
the
thing
is
I
guess
I
thought
I,
definitely
read
some
more
of
the
wiki
and
of
your
wiki
and
and
thought
about
it.
I
mean
that
issue
basically,
is
that
well
I'm,
not
exactly
sure
what
you're?
Maybe
you
could
say
more
about
what
you're
trying
to
accomplish
with
these
with
these
camps,
yeah.
A
Yeah
I'm
quite
getting
it
yeah.
What
I'm
trying
to
accomplish
is
to
create
a
open
source
product
development
capable
public
in
general,
I'd
like
to
scale
this
I
see
that
part
of
an
essential
part
of
a
democratic
societies.
Our
ability
to
build
the
world
around
us
so
we're
less
than
available
by
political
forces,
and
we
just
have
more
control
of
self-determination.
So
self-determination
is
a
big
thing
for
me
and
economic
freedom.
That
is
I
talk
a
lot
about
people
gaining
the
ability
to
do
that,
which
is
their
passion
on
a
bigger
scale
than
today.
A
Well,
I
think
feel
that
most
people
kind
of
feel
trapped
in
a
system.
They
only
see
solutions,
so
part
of
that
is
creating
people
that
can
build
more
of
the
world
around
them,
but
there's
a
side
effect
of
this
we're
talking
about
the
goal
here
is
realistic:
product
development
that
comes
out
of
this
as
well,
so
on
one
side.
Its
event
eventually
leads
to
the
global
village,
Construction
Set
being
completed
all
the
tools
being
completed,
my
right
now
we're
kind
of
looking
at
2028
by
the
time
that
we'd
like
to
see
it
all
happen.
A
So
it's
product
development,
it's
building,
a
team
that
can,
for
me
and
and
the
kind
of
message
I'd
like
to
get
to
others-
is
get
involved
fully
in
open
source
product
development,
which
today
has
not
been
developed
to
the
point
where
people
can
have
meaningful
livelihood
out
of
that
nobody's
doing
it.
The
very
few
people
are
doing
it
so
we'd
like
to
create
a
platform
that
can
absorb
everyone
who
pretty
much
wants
to
take
control
over
their
destiny
as
an
ethical,
ethical,
open-source
way
to
make
a
living.
A
We
think
that
the
market
for
this
kind
of
stuff
is
huge
so
that
a
lot
of
people
can
be
absorbed
into
this,
but
a
really
high
quality
product
has
to
be
created
for
this
to
take
off.
So
this
is
all
about
execution
to
building
a
team
and
so
forth.
Does
that
kind
of
help
clarify
more
things
or
other
questions?
A.
B
B
Gonna
so
my
background
is
entrepreneur
and
serial
entrepreneur.
I
started
different
businesses
before,
and
some
of
them
were
really
failures
and
some
were
you
know
some
more
financial
successes,
pretty
much
all
my
business
a
bit,
but
business
isn't
based
on
open
source,
but
you
know
they
weren't
financial
successes.
For
me,
hardware.
B
B
B
B
B
Gonna
feed
him
like
a
bit
like
freedom
to
modify
sentence,
it
is
freedom
to
modify,
and
this
is
the
reason
this
thing
is
you
know
has
got.
It
has
a
small
amount
of
success,
but
the
reason
it
is
one
is
is
crappy
in
most
dimensions
you
know
it
does.
It
is
a
lab.
It
is
a
very
good
lab
instrument,
but
it
doesn't
have
a
lot
of
like
doesn't
look
good.
It
doesn't
like
you
know,
have
great
have
like
polish
software,
but
he
can
modify
it.
B
You
modify
the
software,
you
can
modify
the
hardware
and
and
that
for
a
certain
group
of
people,
it's
very
important.
You
know,
and
so
that's
the
the
people
that
I'm
currently
selling
it
to
you
I
think
that's
true
in
general,
with
open
source
machinery
and
devices,
and
things
like
that,
you
know
there
is,
it
has
to
be
better
for
them
in
some
dimensions
and
some
people,
it's
open.
You
know
open
this
better
and
those
are
the
people
who
buy
it.
But
the
thing
is
like
the
question
I
have
for
you.
B
I,
guess
is
that
you
know
the
global
village
construction
set
and
open-source
machinery
in
general,
like
this
stuff.
I,
also
believe
that
we
do
need
to
be
able
to
have
the
key
elements
of
our
civilization
based
on
open
source
technology.
So
it
can't
be
so
we
can't,
like
you,
said,
oh
so
we
have
freedom
to
take
the
society
and
all
the
directions
that
we
want.
You
know
that
are
there
more
just
for
everybody,
but
my
experience
is
that
products
really
require
teams
and
teams
really
to
have
great
products.
B
B
You
know
I
mean
and
to
have
there's
this
there's
this
element
of
love
that
goes
into
making
a
product,
and
you
need
like
a
critical
mass
of
people
who
can
support
themselves
by
using
the
product,
and
so
you
know
either
using
it
building
it
whatever
you
know,
and
that
generally
equates
in
our
society,
a
company
doesn't
have
to
be
a
for-profit
company,
it
doesn't
have
to
be
even
what's
what's
traditionally
looked
at
as
a
company,
but
money
has
a
wealth.
You
know
which
is
generally
money
is
has
to
flow
through
it.
B
B
B
A
B
A
A
Now
what
how
do
you
get
the
things
to
be
self-sustaining?
Well
for
one?
Oh
s,
e
is
behind
this.
So
we're
aiming
to
do
this
as
a
bootstrap
herbal
scalable
platform
for
product
development,
where
OSE
would
stand
for
the
quality
control,
distribution
marketing.
So
yes,
a
company
and
we
look
at
it
in
the
form
of
a
an
open-source
franchise,
so
basically
a
franchise
like
McDonald's,
where
you
also
have
access
to
the
blueprints
for
the
product
and
for
the
enterprise.
So
we
publish
everything
openly
and
we
will
like
to
hire
you
to.
A
You
know
hire
people
to
do
that
or
they
can
go
on
their
own.
If
you
come
to
us,
it's
like
it
makes
it
easier.
If
you
do
it
on
your
own,
it
might
be
a
little
harder,
but
of
course,
you're
welcome
to
do
it.
So
that's
that's
that
now.
Let
me
tell
you
about
one
more
aspect
of
this
so
specifically
for
the
steam
camp.
A
I
think
I
mentioned
about
feeding
people
into
the
incentive
challenges,
so
we're
gonna
run
a
a
challenge:
September
2020,
to
build
the
world's
first
open-source
3d
printed
professional-grade,
cordless
drill
made
from
scraps.
So
that
means
plastic
recycling
infrastructure
is
in
there,
but,
along
with
that
product
we
intend
to
build
an
enterprise
so
that,
when
the
contest
finishes,
we
can
have
fifty
to
a
hundred
people
that
are
producing
these
drills
that
are
being
distributed
to
your
hardware
stores
or
could
be
online
we'll
have
to
work
that
out.
But
that's
part
of
it.
A
A
We
have
to
treat
it
like
the
modular
breakdown
of
software,
which
we
have
done
for
Hardware.
We
break
things
down
into
many
many
parts
develop
it
module
early.
We
have
to
do
the
same
with
enterprise
and
make
all
the
products
open-source
so
that
element
has
to
be
built
in
and
how
is
it
gonna
look?
Well,
nobody
yet
has
done
an
open-source
Hardware
franchise
we'd
like
to
do
that.
A
So
that's
we'd
like
to
see
that
as
an
outcome
of
the
incentive
challenge
next
year,
where
we
intend
that
so
we're
looking
at
250
K
prize
and
as
a
result,
thousands
like
thousand
to
five
thousand
or
so
people
are
participating,
but
the
rules
are
different.
If
you
look
at
the
rules
of
hero,
X
that
have
you
heard
of
hero,
X
no
okay,
here
ox
is
an
offshoot
of
the
X
PRIZE.
A
It
blew
me
away
that
when
I
looked
into
the
rules
of
that,
if
you
look
at
take
any
go
to
any
project
and
go
to
their
rules
and
I,
say
you'll
be
disqualified,
a
for
you.
If
you
work
with
others
I,
they
don't
say
that
they
say:
you'll
be
disqualified
if
you
copy
from
others.
So
that's
a
bad
design.
So
what
we're
gonna
do
is
say:
okay,
everybody
works
together.
A
You
upload
as
soon
as
you
have
something
and
you
reward
it
for
collaborating
with
each
other
so
that
we
can
create
the
product,
the
production,
engineering,
open-source
quality
control,
distributed
quality
control
and
the
enterprise
and
infrastructure
as
outcomes
of
this
incentive
challenge.
So
we're
gonna
push
the
limits
to
the
first
ever
project
on
hero,
X,
that's
actually
collaborative
I
was
blown
away
that
even
like
Mozilla
challenge
I'm
there,
which.
C
A
A
known
open-source
company
they
weren't
open
source,
they
weren't
collaborative
and
the
entrance
outside
of
the
winner
were
not
open
source.
It's
like
they
force
the
winner
to
become
open
source,
but
an
even
claim
require
open
source
anyway.
What
I'm
trying
to
say
is
that
we're
trying
to
really
skew
the
the
rules
of
the
game
for
open
collaborative
which,
in
my
view,
has
never
ever
existed
in
any
single,
well,
economically
efficient
project.
Yes,
RepRap
succeeded.
It
wasn't
efficient
we'd
like
to
do
that,
where
you
show
also
the
case
for
10x
improvement
in
cost
of
development.
A
B
B
C
B
A
Faster
stronger
in
some
way,
so
first,
it's
gonna
be
but
meet
or
exceed
industry
standards
of
plane
performance.
The
other
part
is
that
it's
a
lifetime
design
as
afforded
by
open
source.
In
other
words,
if
you
have
the
blueprints,
you
cannot
get
pulled
a
trick
upon
like,
for
example,
the
one
of
the
things
I
found
out
about
cordless
drills
is
that
they
changed
it
with
the
battery
form-factor
to
do
planned
obsolescence,
and
you
essentially
have
to
get
rid
of
your
drill
things
like
that.
No
we're
gonna
do
lifetime
design.
A
A
If
you
want
to
produce
that
under
our
label
and
stuff
like
that,
but
it
has
to
be
bottom
line
as
to
be
open
source
for
us,
it's
going
to
be
better
I
meant
to
say
it
has
to
be
better
in
some
way,
so
one
it
matches
industry
standards
to
it
exceeds
them
because
it
also
contributes
to
the
localized
economy.
It's
if
we
succeed,
then
you
know
thousands
of
people
worldwide.
Initially
out
of
the
contest,
our
goal
is
50
to
100
people,
taking
this
on
as
a
as
a
sideline
I.
B
A
Okay,
so
if
it
succeeds,
we
have
established
an
enterprise
that
provides
bootstrap
funding
for
their
bootstrap
funding
for
other
projects,
but
we're
continuing
to
other
projects.
So
if
that
works
for
the
cordless
drill,
then
it
can
work
for
a
tractor,
a
car
or
a
house,
and
it
will
be
noticed
by
mainstream
industry
and
we
will
have
rewritten
I
believe
we
will
have
rewritten
human
economic
history
to
say
that
oh
no
longer
is
proprietary
development.
The
way
to
go.
A
We
have
demonstrated
that
collaborative
development
gets
better
results,
so
I
believe
that
has
huge
potential
for
transforming
the
human
economic
system,
perhaps
the
greatest
event
since
I
don't
know
when,
but
we
there's,
of
course
limits
to
that.
Like
open-source
software
has
succeeded,
but
it
kind
of
got
co-opted.
Nobody
noticed
that
Prusa
printers
are
now
the
dominant
market
player
like
nobody
connects
that
our
open
source
is
transformed
in
industry,.
C
C
A
Was
a
good
result,
it
is
a
good
result.
I,
don't
think
it
changed
economic
history,
it
changed
I
think
it
pushed
a
dial
in
the
right
direction.
Yeah!
Absolutely
it's
great
companies
being
made
I
think
a
lot
of
people
I
mean
the
whole
industry
has
been
started.
Rounded,
yes,
absolutely
great,
but
as
far
as
I'm
looking
a
little
deeper
and
I'm
looking
at
changing
the
economic
paradigm,
so
I
think
there's
much
more
to
changing
an
economic
paradigm.
B
C
C
C
B
A
The
fact
whether
there
are
more
people
that
the
wealth
distribution
behind
that
industry
has
been
changed,
that's
gonna
help
a
lot
of
people
when
they
can
run
their
businesses
and
doesn't
possibly
succeed
so
so
just
distribute
distributed
production.
The
idea
that
we're
solving
the
biggest
issue
of
the
current
economy,
which
is
distribution,
that's
the
level
we're
working
at
we're.
Looking
at
solving
the
distribution
part
of
the
economic
equation,.
C
B
B
A
The
steam
camp
gets
you
basic
training
like
boot
camp,
for
you
being
able
to
participate
in
the
contest,
because
I
think
for
a
lot
of
people.
There
will
be
significant
barriers
to
the
conus,
because
you're
required
to
use
free,
CAD
and
all
open-source
tool
chains,
so
we're
gonna
teach
all
of
that.
How
do
you
actually
collaborate
with
a
large
team
using
wiki's
and
and
uploads
and
repositories
and
part
libraries?
A
All
those
techniques
of
collaborative
development
will
teach
there
but
more
important
the
culture
of
collaboration,
what
we
call
collaborative
literacy,
that's
what
we're
teaching
in
a
camp,
because
without
that
I
think
the
results
on
the
incentive
challenge
will
be
less.
But
yes,
so
somehow
people
it
will
definitely
improve
the
incentive
challenge.
But
besides
in
itself,
if
you
complete
the
this
so-called
open
source
product
development,
bootcamp
every
single
camp
will
do
what
you
you
told
me
about
all.
Maybe
your
software
on
your
open
eg
is
not
great
or
the
user
interface.
We
improve.
A
B
B
B
C
B
A
There's
two
answers
to
that:
one
is
that
they
have
an
incentive
to
join
a
conjoined.
The
continuing
development
community,
so
homely
will
catch
some
of
those
people
that
dispersed
into
the
ocean,
and
that
will
definitely
be
the
case,
but
I
think
the
much
more
important
part
is
that
we're
building
an
a
team
of
instructors-
those
are
the
people
that
are
gonna,
create
the
continuity
so
I'm
interested
in
creating
a
mastermind
of
people
committed
to
creating
the
next
economy
and
those
I
think
those
I'm
hoping
are
the
instructions.
That's
that's
my
present
mindset
on
it.
A
We
need
to
build
a
team
on
that
and
establish
shared
norms,
a
high-performing
team
that
leads
civilization
to
the
open
source
economy.
I
define
open
source
economy
as
an
economy
where
things
like
the
patents
and
all
the
forms
of
competitive
wastes
are
just
we
no
longer
do
it
because
we
don't
have
to
so
it's
a
big
psychological
shift
for
a
lot
of
people
because
it
gets
into
the
survival
issue
your
reptilian
brain
and
that's
it's
a
challenge
there,
because
we're
working
against
200
years
of
history,
but
it's
a
definite
worthwhile
stabbed
for
the
next
economy.
A
B
B
B
B
C

A
We're
primarily
in
a
business
of
education,
so
whatever
we
do
is
that
I
mean
would
okay
would
would
the
camp
would,
instead
of
challenge,
achieve
what
you
said
it
might,
but
the
steam
camp
would
also
be
I'm
looking
for
candidates,
who'd
be
part
of
that
effort
like
okay.
Let's
start
a
company,
okay
I
got
my
instructors:
hey
yeah,
we're
getting
along
on
the
lines
of
open
source
product
development
based
on
cultural
alignment
of
open
source
and
ethical
work
and
making
a
living
on
open
hardware.
So
there'll
be
good
candidates
to
form
the
company
with.
A
It
seems
that
there
is
a
blog
to
people
being
able
to
participate
in
the
contest
like
I
think
it
would
help
significantly
to
train
people,
but
if
we
go
be
below
before
that,
I
think
it's
about
a
revenue
model.
I
mean
education
is
well
known,
like
it's
a
realm
of
revenue
model
and
using
the
in
esteem
camps.
A
The
participants
fond
that
development
right,
it's
a
fun
funding
model,
so
I
I
think
perhaps
the
easy
answer
to
your
question
might
be
like
it's
a
funding
model,
but
it,
but
it
wouldn't
be
as
interesting
if
it
didn't
put
meaningful
people
into
the
contests
or
into
the
potential
collaborators
after
the
contests
who
start
those
companies
so
I
think
it's
kind
of
like
a
two-pronged
effort.
There
does
that
make
sense.
Er,
you
still
think
just
add,
just
go
with
incentive
challenges.
That's
the
better
way.
B
B
C
B
B
B
C
B
B
C
C
A
C
Like
I
like
snapped
me,
yeah.
A
But
open
source,
what
we're
saying
is
that
okay,
let's
combine,
let's
have
all
these
superstars
work
together,
because
if
we
do
that
we're
gonna
come
up
with
product,
that's
better
than
anything
out
out
there
and
that's
kind
of
like
I'm
questioning.
Okay,
yet
is
that
possible?
Because
the
incentive
is
different
because
we're
actually
collaborating
and
trying
to
also
teach
people
to
be
around
us
and
create.
C
B
B
C
C
B
B
C
A
B
B
A
C
B
A
What
about
the
aspect
of
word?
We're
actually
developing
products
and
largely
led
by
the
instructors,
because
I
mean
those
are
the
people
that
are
gonna
have
to
provide
the
leadership.
We
are
developing
products
in
that
I
want
to
take.
You
know
like,
for
example,
the
simple
things
like
like
the
aerial
drone
that
maybe
some
crappy
thing
in
the
first
camp,
but
but
ultimately
it
becomes
an
AI
computer
vision,
drone
that
plants
my
aquaponic
towers
in
a
few
iterations.
A
You
know
things
like
that
that
we
are
taking
products
to
completion,
and
then
you
know
outside
of
these
small
consumer
items
such
as
the
vacuum,
robot
I
mean
we
can
run
the
camp
then,
with
okay,
now
we're
making
an
electric
vehicle
now
we're
making
a
tractor
or
whatever.
So
it's
a
it's
designed
to
be
to
fit
into
as
a
generalized
open
product
development
method,.

A

A
A
A

A
Here:
okay,
yeah,
okay,
so
oh.
C
A
A
A
B
A
A
C
A
A
B
C
B
B
B
C
C
C
C
A
C
C
Company
is
calling
for
that's,
and
it's
not
like
I'm,
not
saying
this.
Oh
I'm
saying
this
is
one
of
the
steps
in
an
ecology
towards
an
older
vehicle
over
the
sort
of
product
development
platform
that
it's
going
to
include.
Also
the
incentive
challenges
start
up
of
enterprises.
Startup
of
I
would
like
to
see
the
the
business
swarm
of
franchise
so.
C
C
A
C
But
we
can
convert
this
model
to
okay.
This
is
a
an
innovator,
I
mean
either
the
scene.
Cam
is
gonna,
be
the
wrong
thing.
It's
gonna
be
like
okay,
all
the
sort
of
product,
all
an
incubator
or
whatever
I
guess.
It's
gonna
rise
to
that
higher
justice
CK.
Well,
because
we
know
there's
money
in
there
and
then
getting
tab
that
revenue.
B
B
B
The
the
the
where
I
have
it
were
this
is
hard
for
me-
is
I'm,
not
passionate
about
farm
equipment
right.
So
that's
hard
for
me,
so
I,
don't
I,
just
not
interested
in,
and
the
the
yeah
I
like
gardening
and
stuff
like
that,
but
the
but
but
I'm,
not
passionate
about
building
tractors
or
things
like
that
and
the
the
the
the
thing.
B
B
You
know
you
basically
like
we're.
Gonna
run
these
driven.
You
know
we're
going
to
we're.
Gonna
run
products
where
you
know
run
this
iteratively
designed
product
over
and
over
and
over
again.
So
you
get
one
that's
incredibly
good
and
then
somehow
those
people
participate
in
the
success
of
the
product.
You
know
so.
B
C
B
Skills
and
then
you
help
what
we
do
is
build
this
drill
and
we
run
that
camp
20
times
every
time,
taking
the
input
in
the
last
that
you
know
the
output
of
the
last
and
put
it
into
the
new
and
we've
run
it
twenty
times.
We
end
up
with
a
you
know
this
drill,
and
then
we
make
a
drill
that
you,
you
probably
you
have
a
wing
model
there,
but
then
how
do
you
get
the
money
to
basically
teach
people
all
these
skills
and
run
a
cancer.
