The thing that I want to do is build the world's best thing.
Because if you do it right and it lifts the industry, it doesn't matter if it takes an extra two months.
Yeah.
Like two months is worth waiting.
And so doing it right and not being overwhelmed with technical debt and things like this is like, again, war wounds, lessons learned, whatever you want to say, I think is absolutely the right thing to do.
Even though right now people are very frustrated that, you know, you can't download it or it doesn't have feature X or something like this.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, so, I mean, I've been very pleased.
I mean, in fact, I mean, we've, we've been massively overwhelmed with response, which is a good problem to have.
It's kind of like a success disaster in a sense.
Right.
And yeah,
If you go back in time, when we started Modular, which was just not yet a year and a half ago, so it's still a pretty new company, new team, small but very good team of people.
We started with extreme conviction that there's a set of problems that we need to solve, and if we solve it, then people will be interested in what we're doing.
But again, you're building in basically secret information.
You're trying to figure it out.
Creation's a messy process.
You're having to go through different paths and understand what you wanna do and how to explain it.
Often when you're doing disruptive and new kinds of things, just knowing how to explain it is super difficult.
