I’m an entrepreneur, engineer, dog lover. Building AI - hopefully for good. I wonder about our place in this universe, the human condition and our ability to do a lot of good and evil. Enjoy philosophy, spirituality, history and metaphysics.

David Lynch gave us the language we needed to better articulate the indescribable strangeness of our shared reality. “Lynchian” is so overused because it’s a viscerally understandable word without any known synonyms. I can’t imagine a more beautiful artistic legacy than that.

What is your problem, Einstein?
