Hi, I've been developing software for 30 years, and for the past 16, exclusively writing mobile apps for iOS. I plan to become a certified bicycle mechanic upon retirement in 3-5 years.


I enjoy tinkering with electronics, reading sci-fi novels and comic books. I spend a lot of time on my bikes, paddling a kayak around the Salish Sea, and keeping up with my 15 year old daughter on a snowboard.

Someone who invades countries to steal their oil and in the same time thinks that windmills causes cancer should be far from a leadership position

The internet has changed. Not for the better.

A big part of it used to be linking between sites. Ideas and information connected. Now the biggest platforms downrank anything that sends you away.

Headlines used to inform. Now they’re just clickbait.

It used to feel like a place for human creativity and shared knowledge. Now it’s increasingly just computer generated content.

Feels like we’ve engineered ourselves into a corner where the internet is no longer the information hub we need.

Our friend Sam wrote something nostalgic, relatable, and frankly beautiful about the new MacBook Neo. If you only have time to read one thing today, let it be this essay.
