Last day of stage 5 today. I'm literally counting the days until I'm done with BASE. Seems like I'll start on E2 around the end of July.
I received a confirmation from the neurophysiologist I contacted that he's ready to get on board as a consultant, and we've scheduled a meeting around the end of this month to discuss the finer details, as he put it.
Honestly, the startup is far from my primary concern, but this is a great development. The kinda "selfish, but not really" angle is that if I manage to seal a deal with an investor (which this consultant's academic reputation will help me do), I'll basically get to have experience in managing a team of (experienced) programmers without having to pay them out of my pocket.
This will be invaluable to my future business. Of course, the only way to learn how to do that is to give 110% of myself throughout the whole thing and aim for success, so I'm still keeping my integrity. I just have a backup plan in case my kinda idealistic one doesn't pan out. It will be a dream come true if it does, though.
