Very sorry for the loss of our friend, Josh Baer, in the jet crash last night.
Our Austin tech ecosystem is booming in large part due to his early and constant advocacy & enthusiasm.
Josh was building here for years, over a decade before we moved to town. We’d often share notes; I appreciated his perspective and was proud to be a small supporter of his, as he helped so many.
Tayler and I send our thoughts and prayers to his many friends and family.
From a school notice: "Due to GDPR unfortunately, we cannot share the names of the other students in the class." 🤯
When the GDPR prevents you from knowing the names of next year's classmates, something has gone horribly, Europeanly wrong.
Somebody has to be the richest person on the planet.
The fact that it’s the guy who popularized electric cars, made rockets reusable, and is working on curing blindness and paraplegia as a side quest seems fair to me.
