Sapien/SoLunar Team Meeting — 2026-07-20 (Readout)
Short, ops-heavy check-in (22 lines in source).
1. Decisions
| decision | who | date |
|---|---|---|
| Moving out of Indra's by the 26th — Randi wants to rent it to someone moving in on the 1st; "$1.5m would be better spent elsewhere" (buying Indra's is effectively off) | Poly | 2026-07-20 |
| Vlatko is still doing a data center (deal continues) | Poly | 2026-07-20 |
| Angel Robinson fully on board with the Sapien location; "rolling right along" | Poly | 2026-07-20 |
| Lease status: still no Sapien lease, but leases held for both yellow houses; Sapien secured for this month by paying rent | Poly | 2026-07-20 |
| Grass decision pending: real vs fake (fake "supposedly non-toxic"); Poly wants real grass but serious ant problem; Jen: real grass = maintenance problem; alternatives floated: clover (cheap, non-toxic, nitrogen-rich) / thyme (smells amazing); Angel will handle grass maintenance | Poly / Jen / Eliza | 2026-07-20 |
| Front corner: someone comes by at noon for a quote (work Angel already committed to) | Jay | 2026-07-20 |
| Second yellow house = offices + data center ("which is what we need"); Hakeem only sleeps in the guest bedroom + office space there | Poly | 2026-07-20 |
| Hakeem move-in plan: a week here / a week in Houston until he moves over for real; "maybe a larger chunk of time in August" | Poly / Eliza | 2026-07-20 |
| Indra's move-out: Poly gathers known-ours items to the middle of the room → where-does-it-go piles; takes Tom, Jay, Gabriel; move all couches | Poly | 2026-07-20 |
| Jen's podcast studio (at her house): collect anything that should go with it | Jen | 2026-07-20 |
Cross-check vs 06-DECISIONS:
- Decisive on Indra's: 7-10/7-17 left buy-vs-move open (Forsyth + Vlatko competing); 7-20 closes it — not buying ("$1.5m better spent elsewhere"), move out by the 26th. Forsyth's interest is effectively moot.
- Consistent with 7-10 (Angel on board; data center in yellow house; Hakeem; 30-day rent hold on Sapien).
- Grass (clover/thyme) is a new micro-decision thread; no final call.
2. Action Items
| owner | task | due date | project | status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Poly (+ Tom, Jay, Gabriel) | Move out of Indra's — gather, pile, move couches | 2026-07-26 | Sapien / Move | scheduled |
| team | Quote for front corner (Angel's commitment) — person arrives at noon | 2026-07-20 | Sapien / Landscaping | scheduled |
| team | Decide real vs fake vs clover/thyme grass (ant problem; maintenance) | NO DATE | Sapien / Landscaping | open |
| Angel | Grass maintenance | ongoing | Sapien / Landscaping | assigned |
| Poly | Hakeem move-in logistics (week here / week Houston; August chunk) | August | Sapien / Yellow house | planned |
| Jen | Collect items for the podcast studio (her house) | NO DATE | Sapien / Media | open |
| team | Hakeem: let Jay know he can be back (Delano) | 2026-07-20 | Housing | open |
| Poly | Investors: upcoming call with Gabe the Poker player; Ryan Sellers stopping by; Source Node; + one other | this week | L484 / Investment | scheduled |
3. Project Links
- Sapien / SoLunar (existing) → move-out, grass, front corner, investor calls
- Indra's → exit by the 26th (Randi renting to new tenant on the 1st)
- Yellow houses (existing) → #2 = office + data center (Hakeem guest room); both leased
- Fast Friends / New Braunfels — not mentioned this meeting
- Keynctr (keynctr 1) — not mentioned
4. Knowledge
- Randi (Indra's) is renting it out to a new tenant moving in on the 1st — the Indra's chapter is closing.
- Ant problem in the back yard is serious (a factor in the grass decision).
- Clover: cheap, non-toxic, nitrogen-rich; thyme: smells amazing — the low-maintenance candidates.
- Fake grass: "supposedly non-toxic" (unverified).
- Hakeem: "already figured out all the open-source back-end stuff" (customer service, fulfillment, scalability) — Eliza excited.
- Housing: Hakeem at Delano only one night; "we're leaving there in a month" (per 7-17).
- Investor pipeline this week: Gabe (poker player), Ryan Sellers, Source Node, + one other.
- Sapien is month-to-month secured by rent payment until the lease lands.
5. Troubleshooting
- Indra's exit compressed (Randi's new tenant on the 1st) — fix: full move by the 26th; pile-and-sort method; couches out.
- Back-yard ants + grass maintenance — fix: leaning toward clover/thyme (non-toxic, nitrogen-rich, low maintenance); fake grass "supposedly non-toxic."
- Sapien lease still unsigned — fix: rent hold; (per 7-10/7-17) Blaze/Daniel Prague meeting pending outcome.
6. Open Questions
- Real, fake, clover, or thyme grass? (no final call)
- What did the noon front-corner quote come back at?
- Will the Sapien lease be signed after the Blaze/Daniel Prague meeting?
- Do the 4 investor calls this week (Gabe, Ryan Sellers, Source Node, +1) convert?
- Is Vlatko's data center deal still on track after the Indra's exit?
7. Gaps
- No owner for the grass decision (team-level, unresolved).
- Front-corner quote: result not captured.
- Investor call outcomes: not captured.
- Sapien lease: still no terms, no date — the persistent gap across 7-10 → 7-17 → 7-20.
- Podcast studio items: no list, no owner.
8. My Follow-Ups (Avi)
- No direct assignment. Avi not named.
- Indra's move-out by the 26th — if Avi is on the move team, the server/data-center items are the fragile cargo (see 7-24 for the actual move logistics and Ali's server-shelf work).
- Data center power at the yellow house (7-10: "not enough power for shelves yet") — the move makes this urgent; adjacent to Keynctr-type work. [INFERRED]
Email Summary
7-20 was a short ops check-in that closed the Indra's chapter: Randi is renting it to a new tenant on the 1st, so the team is moving out by the 26th (the $1.5m "better spent elsewhere"), with the second yellow house confirmed as offices + data center and Hakeem settling in (guest bedroom + office, a week here / a week in Houston until August). Both yellow-house leases are signed; Sapien itself is still month-to-month on rent, with the Sapien lease the one outstanding item. Back-yard grass is up for decision (real vs non-toxic fake vs cheap nitrogen-rich clover or fragrant thyme) against a serious ant problem, a quote for the front corner Angel committed to was coming in at noon, and the investor pipeline is active this week (Gabe the poker player, Ryan Sellers, Source Node, plus one more).
