1) Have you read about Vannevar Bush, and what he has written, and his body of work?! :)
2) What sort of people are you looking for / to work with?
3) Would it need to be full-time? Are you looking to hire people full time (the generalists you mention), or are you comfortable working with people who are happy not cashing a cheque from you because they have jobs and other commitments / priorities, but still believe in what you are building and would like to invest significant time in supporting / driving the mission forward for some limited (or no) financial compensation? Because I’d like to check if I fit! :)
(I’ve also spammed you on twitter with a dm, but with more personal details, etc.)
Thank you!
