    I’ve found myself navigating the concept of “home” as I’ve gotten older. I think I’m just now starting to come to terms with what it means to me. I’ll be sharing my story 12/22 at alongside & . Shed tears with us. Laughter or sadness. Both welcome.

    I watch technology for Diabetes and seen great advances in patient care due to better monitoring also the new product will open doors for rural farms and doctors in remote regions. This is where I love seeing technology. Healthcare benefits everyone.

    A8. I hope this includes access to medical devices and healthcare where specialists "log-in" remotely to people in isolated areas of other countries. I hope translation services are enhanced to the point we all have earpieces that vocally translate in real time.

    Q8. What does a digital future for all look like?

    A7. I absolutely believe that governments should not have access to data that businesses keep on citizens. Specific data saved on apps/phones/etc should stay between the medium and its direct user.

    Q7. What responsibilities do businesses and governments have as they increasingly have more access to our personal data?

    A7. One group I'd like to highlight that was way ahead of the curve on this is . They do phenomenal research that explores the ethics behind technology-use and access to data.

    When a headline or story is incredibly sensationalized, especially in a negative context, best practice is GOOGLE (i.e. actively seek) to see how many other sources confirm same info! Easy to debunk and not pass on misinformation!

    A5. I would love answers to this. Longform Journalism is dying, and our digital media consumption encourages very short buzzy-wordy headlines. Nuance has been taken out of the conversation. Any ideas?

    Q5. Misinformation is more prevalent than ever. What are your recommendations on how to address the issue?

    Technology has allowed me to reach across great distance and learn from likeminded folks about farming. Explore ancient religious texts, hear stories and music from around the world and see places my ancestors never dreamed to see. My past, present and future at fingertips.

    I love the innovative ways has used tech to bring community in Kentucky together. Including the interfaith campaign and their work with Charles Booker, young African-American brother challenging Mitch Mcconnell's seat.

    One very recent personal example: I was involved in a car accident with a Korean woman who spoke no English and she was left without transportation. Google Translate helped me check on her, offer a ride, figure out where to take her.& we exchanged snacks!

    Q1. FIRST QUESTION. Technology can be a great equalizer. 🌍 How has it been used to improve humanity?

    A1. Brilliance is evenly distributed around the world, yet resources are not. Technology is the most powerful tool we have to narrow this accessibility gap.

    Hands down They’re the best at creating an environment that makes players feel comfortable and safe enough to be truly vulnerable and candid. No rehearsed or censored answers. Just real talk.

    Man if y’all love basketball you’ll love the All The Smoke podcast with and . Love the backstories of big moments and honest perspectives. Bumped into Stack a few weeks ago in NYC and he was so excited and proud of the show. 🙌🏼

    I’m not sure if you actually met someone like this. If so, please proceed with caution, and keep the pepper spray on deck.

    How can humans dislike tacos? This puzzles my mind.

    Great answer. People ask essentially the same of Iraq and elsewhere. The biggest problem with the question is that it falsely reduces the entire context, history and politics down to two choices. As though dictatorship or chaos were the only possibly options and outcomes.
