In 2013 I was asked to brief Prince Harry about tech startups. Here I’m telling him how the Basis watch on my wrist came into existence through a crowdfunding campaign. At the time I wondered why he was interested in tech startups. 8 years later we finally know the answer!

I mean, I guess that qualifies him to be a tech exec ...

Since he won’t be building or selling tech, I’d love to understand your snark.

One way you can form a better understanding is to ask questions. Here’s a simple one : what qualifications does he have for the role ? Would it make sense if he was the head of a hospital or space agency ?

You seem to be confused as to what he does and what he’s expected to do in his role. Since he has been doing it since January, I’m going to conclude that he’s doing a fantastic job. You don’t seem to even know what his job entails

And you assume he’s doing a fantastic job because he’s been doing it since a January !? Wow.

You needed a second response to my word salad, eh. Why are you so passionate about Harry and his job? I’m not assuming he’s doing a fantastic job since January, his boss said so. Have a good day, I’ll mite you now.
