Favorite Storage manufacturer should be ready to review, but I didn't give it a sanity doublecheck yet. Requested free image from Lightning.

Call with Cambium, theyre much bigger than i thought, claiming 700 employees globally, owned by $2B venture capital fund. Postitioning themselves similar to Ligowave (30-50% more expensive than UBNT, but with 60 person support group with 24/7 phone support and regional field support engineers). Profile should be relatively straightforward to put together.

Followup emails with Exacq, Blue Iris.

Worked on getting Duc completely setup.  Setup his testing environment, ensured this was working completely, fixed a strange database issue he had by removing an extraneous column, and showed him some more useful debugging / inspecting tools for the Rails console.

Paired with Duc on adding a filter to the newsletters admin page for the list name.  This ended up being more complicated than I originally intended -- the list attribute for the newsletter model is variously a string and an integer corresponding to an id for a UserList.  After a bit of researching, we managed to add a custom filter to the active admin page, which now seems to be working properly!  Sent to Kyle for review.

Fixed an issue where surveys didn't display pictures that I inadvertently created when I was making the survey filters look nicer.  Duc reviewed, deployed to production.

Gave Duc a few small issues to pick amongst and work on over the next week on his own, gave him some pointers on each of these / places to look to get started, told him to contact me if he has any questions.  I'll check in with him likely mid-week but don't want to interfere with any studying.

Spoke with Scanlan/Duc about expectations for the summer and answered some questions from Duc about balance of work (bugfixes and small tweaks vs features, etc).

Starting investigating on removing multiple survey sections.  Did some investigation / reporting on which surveys have multiple sections, and which of these actually have questions in multiple sections.  Will take a look at only displaying the first section (and removing sections from the survey creation) next week.
