        This hit me: “He didn’t shut down my bullshitting or judge it. He recognized it as part of my own process. But he made sure I was being self-aware about everything I was doing, and owned the choices I was making”; I imagine he did that because he cared about you. That’s lovely.

        Condolences to you man. Rest In Peace to your friend, mentor, and fellow countryman. Was delighted/saddened further to read we share the same birthplace. Seems like he one of only a handful of people one ever comes across in life.

        This is a wonderful tribute and a rare expression of what engineering can be. As a lapsed engineer, it reminds me of what attracted me to the profession in the first place. Thank you.
