  1. On this day long ago, a child was born who, by age 30, would transform the world. Happy Birthday Isaac Newton b. Dec 25, 1642

  2. Meet creator of the Apache Storm project. He will join Amsterdam on May 16-17!

  3. (I know I wrote Specter, but I never anticipated how much I would learn from using and iterating on it)

  4. Specter for the awesome leverage enabled by a composable abstraction

  5. Clojure for immutability and expanding my mind about what an abstraction could be

  6. Cascading for how to make data processing simple and elegant, and the power of libraries over languages

  7. JVM for the power of dynamic optimization over purely static compilation

  8. Projects which radically changed how I think about programming: JVM, Cascading, Clojure, Specter

  9. Excited to announce has joined the Q leadership team as Chief Data Officer!

  13. The right to vote is precious, almost sacred. It is the most powerful nonviolent tool or instrument we have in a democratic society. Use it.

  14. A system that awards patents for an "idea" as trivial as that is seriously broken

  15. A patent I received while interning for IBM in college. Patents don't get much dumber than this

  16. I’ve marched, protested, been beaten and arrested--all for the right to vote. Friends of mine gave their lives. Honor their sacrifice. Vote.

  17. Proud to be an advisor to this important, ambitious company. Preventative, personalized, data-oriented healthcare is the future

  18. Off-by-0 errors can be subtle and easy to miss

  19. I find that treating programming as a process of discovery rather than of invention yields vastly superior results
