CVPR Daily - Thursday

team at the university. I created a lab. I have servers and machines. I created a big robot. I was missing the lab, so I created the lab at home. [ laughs ] Did you bring the same people? No, I brought similar things. I have my robotic arm, and I have different conveyor belts. I have a bunch of computers there. In the very beginning, I had a small room as an office. My husband was also working remotely at home, and he had a bigger office. But then he gave me the office because I needed a bigger space to put all the stuff. I'm pretty proud of the things that I'm making, even remotely without the space. I create my own space, I create my own lab. What makes a good evangelist? What is the most important skill to succeed? Being able to see through other people's eyes is the most important thing. If I am a developer, I know how things are working. I need to understand what happened with the rest of the developers. What kind of things do they want to do, and what kind of pain are they feeling with specific technology? Again, we need to close these gaps. We need to provide a solution to them because they need to be comfortable with the product. We need to create confidence in the product. For example, if I receive good feedback, that is great. We can clap, and that's good. But if I receive bad feedback, something is not working. I need to do something. I need to connect the dots. Basically, that is the main role of the evangelist, to connect the dots. We are making connections between developers, the product team, the marketing team, and engineers; and we are trying to be the bridge between the company and the developers. 27 DAILY CVPR Thursday Paula Ramos
