And it is an example for a building block that helps to build things. Things that are *impossible*
without it.
Another way to view Fuel is that of a scientific experiment: We empirically study the existing
(ImageSegment). Without pre-concived notions to replace it! (We actually thought ImageSegments
would turn out to be the greatest thing ever and just needed some documentation/more understandable
implementation).
Indeed. I remember my first months in Douai for my PhD making drawings to understand the IS primitives :)
And then Martin arrived hahaha.
-> You study the existing
-> You claim that you can do better
-> You do better.
And then the next step is *extremeley* importnat:
-> You prove that it is better for real by *replacing* ALL the existing subsystems that do the same.
That last part is very essential: in the end, you often see that it is actually not that easy.
That's a real good point. In Spanish I would say "Los pingos se ven en la cancha"
So *replacing* is important. The other thing important is to realize that it enables things that are impossible
without.

Fuel is getting more and more users. Even in BioInformatics:
