Silicon Valley native, tech, artist, wonk, raconteur. I'll veer from topic to topic, and change stylistically on a whim. Curious about stuff and things.

UCD alum (PoliSci/IR & Tech Policy). Strong interests in the arts, actual political science, cliodynamics, systems theory, and seeking a bit of adventure at even the smallest scale.

I own more albums than you have had changes of underpants since birth.

Normally, this guys takes are solid, but his constant need to say how "weird" Thinkpads are, tells me he was desperate to come up with a hook...and failed.

Clean, useful, effective design, doesn't mean "weird"...but Lenovo did screw them up.

It's now over 1400
