        The speed of execution was extremely fast here. Any lessons from https://patrickcollison.com/fast  proving useful or just the virus threat making everyone move quickly?

        1. Decision to be fast. (Sounds basic, but necessary!) 2. Tight collaboration between small groups of empowered, competent individuals. This project involved four separate such groups. 3. Paraphrasing Munger, intricate webs of deserved trust.

        Well done Patrick. Will you guys be talking about the software design process at some point? It sounds fascinating.

        Stephen- do you know how the @HSELive reviewed the 1000s of resumés it received in that drive recently. Lots of complaints from qualified ppl. Was the process automated to scan for key descriptors eg nurse etc

        I love this funding mechanism, but I have to admit that a 1% funding rate is the lowest I've ever seen for any grant application process by a pretty wide margin. Is there any chance that increased funding might push it higher?
