  1. i love the quote in the signature after jeff bezos’ help wanted ad:

    “It’s easier to invent the future than to predict it.” — Alan Kay

  2. I find it hugely amusing that the first mention of Microsoft was with respect to Xenix. Talk about the road not taken…

  3. I just spent a good hour going through all those posts. Made me want to dig out my Commodore 64.


Important Note

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
