The Argonauts

Chasing a nonexsistent golden fleece

Introduction:

Welcome to the Argonauts official website! Please dont mind the lack of apostrophes, it doesnt work. Anywas, a little about us, we are a group of students (2 to be precise) dedicated to making high quality goods for the betterment of humanity. ... Nah just pulling your leg, were just a ragtag team of 2 friends trying to make at the very least a functional prototype for this ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) Lesson, even though it's basically just one person doing most of the work(including this webbsite!), while the other person, helps sometimes I guess. Since this is sort of a collab between the ICT Subject and the BAFS (Business and Accounting Financial Studies) Subject, we have to run this like a company or whatever, even though most tech startups either are massive scams and are just generally a waste of societys resources, or have terrible ideas that cause them to fail the second they need to present their prototype(thats us). All that said, we still have to do financial statements etc. So just click the link on the sidebar that says financial or something.


Reflection:

This project was certainly something. It was I guess in ways both better and worse than the last project we did back in Form 2. Better as in our engineer process was *slightly* better than last time. But worse in that we got a much lower score than anticipated, also this time we had a team member who did nothing but watch football matches. Well at least he helped *a bit* towards the end (I still had to do the project while I was practicing for the archery finals >:( but at least we made it in time). The best thing about this was that this project spanned so long across the term, that I went through a personal journey and literally rediscovered myself in the beginning of 2025, which lead to the huge pivot in direction between stage 2 and 3, and then AGAIN towards the end of the project, which meant we couldn't make up a good enough excuse. Well actually for the second ppivot, I just thought that our second idea was basically trash and didn't have enough time to finish.

I wish I could condense this down even further, but its 1900 on a Monday night, 2 days before this is due, and I still have a lot of work to do, so I'll have to leave it here.
