Nirav Patel, CEO and founder of Framework Computer, join Bryan and Adam to talk about building a new computer company (yes! another new computer company!) focused on making laptops repairable and open. It turns out, there are a bunch of shared lessons between building a 3lb laptop and a 2,500lb cloud computer!
In addition to Bryan Cantrill and Adam Leventhal, we were joined by special guest Nirav Patel, founder and CEO of Framework Computer.
Some of the topics we hit on, in the order that we hit them:
- Framework
- r/spicypillows
- Framework expansion cards
- Framework-based gaming console from the community
- Optima Braille laptop
- Oxide and Friends: A brief history of talking computers
- Acer Ferrari 3400 c. 2004 -- 6.6lb favorite of Solaris Kernel engineers
