It took the @tweetPHM HealthFront to get me back on the road for @CNET for the first time since COVID. It covers the most important avenue of consumer tech today and has proven prescient since 2019. I'll try to digest it during my closing keynote tonight.

@Affirm grew dramatically, went public and figure out WFH in the last 2 years - not much going on there lately ;) Hear how they did it out of the office with their people chief @thatjudegirl.

Had such an interesting talk with @DASHSystems founder @JoelIfill the other day. As Amazon struggles with complicated drone delivery, Dash is attacking the issue a different way, with repurposed guided munitions techniques.

Steve Jobs (or, really, mythical perceptions of him) changed tech culture as much as tech products. @CNET's @RogerWCheng has a unique take: https://t.co/GlSDGkDny7

We think the #FordBronco Badlands is the sweet spot in the line and "the Jeep wrangler". Supplies remain tight due to popularity and an interesting supply chain shortage of some roofs. https://t.co/jiX6hge7me

@RogerWCheng @tfadell From @generalmagicmov to @Apple to @GoogleNest, @TFadell has been involved a disproportionate number of the right projects over the years, always worth listening to, especially with the insightful @RogerWCheng.

[Roger Cheng @RogerWCheng]

For the iPod’s upcoming 20th anniversary, I talked to its inventor, @tfadell, about what it was like to build such a ground-breaking device, and why he thinks it succeeded. https://t.co/cmGf3wZeRe

Steve Jobs isn't responsible for bad behavior in tech land. But people's warped interpretation of his legacy is playing a part: https://t.co/QQvnxSoWe4

Add @MINIUSA to the list of carmakers trending vegan including undeniably smart @Ford, @Porsche, @Tesla , @PolestarCars, and @Toyota. And a tip of the hat to @MercedesBenz who got it right first with MB-Tex.
