“We work 18 hours a day, 7 days a week. Most of us live, eat, and work at our facility. Hard problems, failures, and long hours don't deter us. While others talk, we ship.” But here you are asking from us, the talkers, to design your RL reward function.

If they're really working that many hours then they probably do need help. All their hours are probably going towards fixing the stupid things they're doing in a burned out stupor. They'd probably get more done working half as many hours. Although if they can truly ship a 9,000 dollar humanoid robot that will be impressive. If their software sucks there's other options out there.

  Yea, the team is pretty small and we don't have Figure money unfortunately. Trying to do a lot. In reality, we do sleep 8 hours a day and eat 3 square meals. It's just that we all live together and don't leave the house much

    If you're young and single why not. Love your passion. I shared a house with my old cofounders and it was great.

    If you can get this thing to fold laundry and do dishes then I'll buy one. I think laundry folding is going to be the most important home automation task. If you can get that working then most other tasks like picking up, sweeping, and mopping will be childs play.

      We're still a pretty tiny team, so the goal with building in the open is to make it possible to build an ecosystem of people who can collectively add these kinds of skills. We're going to do what we can but it's definitely a hard challenge

Talk is cheap, but I can't say that I am not debating the cheapest variant and am already rehearsing how to sell it wife:D. Not that I think you do not have a point. I too worry that it seems to be a somewhat recent approach of too many aspiring platforms ( and therein may lie a problem ). Still..

  My suggestion (based off what would work for my own wife), if you have a 3D printer, make the 3D printed one first [0] then use that as a springboard into buying a metal one [0] https://docs.kscale.dev/docs/zeroth-bot-01 https://docs.kscale.dev/docs/zeroth-bot-01

Well, designing RL rewards is the fun part. We can do it ourselves but I think that would defeat the purpose
