Episode notes

The team has done a great job of focusing in on design for usability. It's good looking, which is really important to us. We wanted to build something that we would all be proud of. I think Ben Leonard is the designer that Steve Jobs is referencing. And one of some of my favorite conversations was getting Ben together with the mechanical engineers to figure out how to make the rack look great while making it highly manufacturable.

Adam was out when Bryan made his podcast debut here on The Changelog, so we had to get him back on the show along with his co-founder and CEO Steve Tuck to discuss Silicon Valley (the TV show), all things Oxide, homelab possibilities, bringing the power of the cloud on prem, and more.
