Another interview from SampleCon. This is actually the last interview that I'm doing at the show, live on the show. I'm with my good friend Vignesh. SampleChain been rebranded Research Defender. Huge honor to have you. [00:00:19] Vignesh Krishnan: Thank you. [00:00:19] Jamin Brazil: What do you think about SampleCon? [00:00:20] Vignesh Krishnan: It's great. It's my favorite of the year. I was fortunate enough to go to the first one and I think I've been managing to go to each one since. I have to admit I might have snuck into a few. But that was because I was in New Orleans and the hotel was down the street and so on and so forth, so you just go to meet friends. It's great so far. And I love Pasadena, I love the hotel. It's great. [00:00:41] Jamin Brazil: Of course SampleCon started by Patrick Comer and crew at Lucid. Then was it Fulcrum? No Federated Sample. [00:00:47] Vignesh Krishnan: Federated Sample. [00:00:48] Jamin Brazil: Federated Sample. I always call it Fulcrum, I don't know why. [00:00:50] Vignesh Krishnan: That's the other division that they had. But I think it's all rolled up into this one. [00:00:54] Jamin Brazil: Lucid. Anyway, so of course it gives you probably access to the show if you needed it. So you weren't being too sneaky? [00:01:01] Vignesh Krishnan: Exactly, yeah. [00:01:02] Jamin Brazil: It's not like me in high school, sneaking into the movie theater?
