Hear me out, the team behind Lies of P should build the gothic version of the McDonald’s characters. Call it… Fries of R. So much story to tell just sitting there.

A big trap in your 20's and early 30's is "vanity knowledge". Learning things that you think will impress people or get you to the next tier of status in your career. This is rampant in tech/software. A lot of the things "experts on the stage" talk about are fairly irrelevant to…

What happened at OpenAI today is a Board coup that we have not seen the likes of since 1985 when the then-Apple board pushed out Steve Jobs. It is shocking; it is irresponsible; and it does not do right by Sam & Greg or all the builders in OpenAI.

A tremendous milestone for the AV industry, but even more importantly a signal to the country that CA prioritizes progress over the status quo. We share the CPUC’s commitment to delivering safer, cleaner and more accessible transportation options. With road fatalities…
