I don’t tweet about games much. 20 years ago today at 17:21 I typed Activor Faust into a new game called Eve Online to create this angry looking individual & I have been playing it on & off ever since. #tweetfleet Thank you CCP Hellmar & W0wbagger/Dan for the fun good times 🚀

Is it even possible/viable to make MVP hardware products that require precision manufacturing like an iPhone or MacBook Pro? I seriously doubt it.

A relevant ad was just shown in my feed. Shocking. It was for beer. Admittedly it was still useless because I already buy that beer, but I still feel with worthwhile highlighting that this happened. It's been a LONG LONG time.

I dropped in at the AWS Partner Summit in London 🇬🇧 today. It was cool to see a few old friends & a few people that I was involved at hiring while I was at AWS.

Each man is capable of doing one thing well. If he attempts several, he will fail to achieve distinction in any. — Plato It’s more that a little ironic that someone from AWS would use this quote as part of a pitch. How many services do AWS have, and how many are heavily adopted?

Leeds, the famous global startup hub…. And this is one of the reasons a that it isn’t one, of course. Zero air connectivity, really crappy rail services to London & Manchester, where the meaningful international connectivity is.

Corporate sustainability & sponsoring F1 really doesn’t work for me. They literally pay money to teams that airfreight cars around the world so that execs can hang out in the pit lane & take selfies.

I don't come on Twitter/X much, but I saw this from Rick Houlihan & I wanted to follow up by thanking him for trusting me & joining MongoDB when I was there. This is best example of 'hire people smarter than you' that I have ever executed. Thank you Rick & stay awesome
