A Theory of Mind & Everything

Prompted by his sporting of the intriguing t-shirt shown above, a colleague & I recently embarked upon an intellectual journey deep into metaphysical realms, leveraging scientific, theoretical, speculative, and metaphorical frameworks of understanding as guides. Our discussion was motivated by and centered around recent movies like Everything Everywhere All At…

Weightless mind on soaring wings

Weightless mind on soaring wings. Heavy body above Apocalypse Earth. Now dive down and pull the cord, Hope the parachute works. Life needs help like we need Earth. We’ve lost our way and lost track of time. Our eyes are fixed on broken screens. …

Goodbye,  — Hello, 🌎

Today, with current events rattling through my head, I’ve decided to leave Apple. I’ve had a few weeks of leave recently to reflect on the last 6+ years developing AirPods & more, and the past 2+ years doing so entirely from home with 2 young children and no extended family…

Insubordination & Intimidation

Are the scales balanced? In High School I had this English teacher that relied on authoritarian intimidation techniques to control her class and prop herself up. She understood the threat that my independent intellect posed to her ego & authority, and she frequently aimed to put me in my place. In her mind, my place was in the seat. In my mind, I had a right to stand up. …

Do you understand what I mean?

I might be writing this. I might be speaking this. You might be reading this. You might be hearing this. Do you understand what I mean? Do you understand how this will change everything (again)?

Oh Snap!

Don’t blink or you might miss it. It was shortly before my birthday in 2018 when I decided to buy myself a few new things. I had my mind on a couple different tickers, one priced at $250.20 (decidedly less than $420) and the other at $6.51. I didn’t yet…

Hi, nice to meet you.

I’d like to tell you about how I met a new friend and why it matters. I have this vision of the future. In fact, it’s kind of like one of those quantum physics analogies. The double-slit experiment for modern human spacetime. By observing the future through present thought, the future is altered. Anyway, my family & I were on our…

Facebook is dead. Long live Meta.

What do you do when you’ve built a product with 3 billion monthly active users and no future? You start killing the product and start launching the next product, lest your fate dry with the ink of the history books. Remember, this is Zuck’s “iPhone moment.” The iPhone turned the wildly popular iPod into a mere app. …
