I'm not the organizer and was not asked to post this, but I've attended their events in the past and they are very thoughtful and well done. Nikhil, who runs Out of Pocket, is very reputable in the Healthcare/Healthtech world.

op here, thanks for the question! Yup, any old laptop will do the job, that's the point! But by installing this as the OS essentially, kids can have ownership over the machine. As for why it's not good enough for adults: old computers don't always run new software very well, but Ubuntu + TUI = very smooth.

Author here. I'm curious whether other parents would actually want something like this. It’s intentionally very opinionated: no desktop, no browser, no apps, just boots straight in. I don’t know if that constraint feels freeing or limiting to others.
Distribution is the biggest open question for me. Right now it’s just an ISO you flash yourself, but I’m experimenting with mailing pre-flashed USB drives. I've also thought about preloading old laptops, though that adds a lot of overhead.
I'm also very open to technical feedback around the input layer (evdev for true key-down/key-up, sticky shift, double-tap caps) and the paint-style color mixing, or anything else. Thank you!

My name is Tavi, and I run a software consultancy focused on oncology. My clients include startups, biotech companies and foundations. I previously led several immuno-oncology research projects at Mount Sinai and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Before that, I led a small engineering team at Salesforce.
I advise on software and data strategy (particularly genomic and clinical data), build genomic data processing pipelines, develop web apps for e.g. clinical data analysis, and so on.
I'm eager to chat with anyone working on cancer or other devastating diseases.

Absolutely not a dick move, regardless of the status of projects. Raising rates is part of contracting. Once they know your value, you're in a great position to ask for a significant rate increase. I have no context so take this with a grain of salt, but I'd ask for the $100 that you wanted initially; the fact that they didn't accept that rate 6 months ago does not mean they wouldn't accept that (or more) now that they know you.
As gostsamo wrote, ask if they're interested in continuing. If they are, here's an example of what you could say next: "I've really enjoyed working with you and I'd love to continue. I'd be most comfortable with $100/hr. Would you consider that at this point?"

My name is Tavi, and I run a solo software/data/bioinformatics consultancy focused on oncology. My clients range from small startups to immuno-oncology research labs and pharmaceutical companies. I previously managed a team of engineers at Salesforce.com and led several immuno-oncology research projects at Mount Sinai and with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
I advise on technical strategy and technical hiring, build genomic data processing pipelines, develop web apps for e.g. clinical data analysis, and so on.
I'm eager to chat with anyone in healthcare and particularly with anyone in oncology, whether or not there's an obvious fit right now.
