After a technology problem is identified as primary, the hot topics meeting aligns engineering resources to accelerate work; the primary problem is sometimes not the one initially expected.

“Um, and sometimes it's not the one you expect first. Once we've identified it as a primary problem for the technology, that's where it, that this hot topics meeting gets involved, and that's how we al- align the resources into those engineering teams so that, uh, we can accelerate the work.”
