    After an incredible 6+ years at Kickstarter, it's time to move on. My thoughts on the journey and what I've learned:

  2. Venice beach feels somehow more diverse than NYC; have overheard at least 5 different spoken languages.

  3. A phone # exactly one digit off from mine just called and didn't leave a voicemail. Probably a mistake but really want to call them back.

  4. Hacking Pokemon Go would be epic. Not only would you get the Gmail accounts of millions of people, but also control over their mind and body

  5. My buddy launched a great Android app that helps us be more aware stumbling through NYC on our phones:

  6. ali baba:yahoo::pokemon go:twitter

  7. I don't even have a Pokemon much less multiple Pokemons that would necessitate an AR app

  8. The Pokemon Go acquiring Twitter thing is no joke, it's looking like it will surpass Twitter in Android active users

  9. Pokemon Go should just acquire Twitter

  10. Proof of LA's aforementioned dog:human ratio parity

  11. At an ASMR show at an art gallery in Hollywood and choppers keep flying overhead. Life is weird sometimes.

  12. Deep Learning is being used to solve important problems

  13. Aside from a Pokemon Pikachu pet I hacked around with in HS I never got into the idea, but hard to deny the crazy traction of Go

  14. Mundane observations about LA: • I walk too fast • Neighborhood is a semantically unstable word • Dog density rivals human density

  15. This place is good ☕️☑️ (@ Andante Coffee Roasters in Los Angeles, CA)

  16. Look at Hawaii on this chart: Strict laws, fewest gun deaths. And no neighboring lax gun law states to drive to...

  17. I write copy for our office chatbot & 80% of my job is writing insults for the other chatbots

  18. Possible end game of killer robots & drones is that they end up fighting other killer robots & drones thus beginning Robot Wars in earnest

  19. In reply to
  20. After some travel, I'm thinking about what is next. Talking to folks big and small but figured I might as well make it official on Twitter 😜
