Geospatial Platforms, Career Paths, Questions from Ep 1.

In this episode Chris and Krishna talk a little about their career paths, reply to some questions from listeners about Episode 1 concerning embeddings, and profess their undying love for Google Earth Engine.

Throughout this conversation, a common theme explored is the nature of the abstractions implemented in Google Earth Engine, vs the open-source ecosystem.

If anyone from Google sees this: we would love more export tasks.
