I write and read code from time to time. Mostly reading and writing docs.
Used to send you notifications here. Now helping cars drive themselves.

@sagemintblue End of a legendary run! Although we only worked together sparingly I was always awestruck of your professionalism and ability to change between domains and get stuff done!

For the second time now, Waymo is doing a ground-up design of a driverless vehicle, without any of those useless, legacy human controls like a steering wheel, pedals, or mirrors.

@TheDon You're finally free, Don! It was great working with and learning from you through the years!

One of the things that I think is sad about the decimation of Twitter eng is that Twitter was doing a lot of interesting (and high ROI) engineering work that, at younger companies, is mostly outsourced to "the cloud" or open source projects

A few examples off the top of my head:

My fellow tweeps, if there's anything I can do to help don't hesitate to reach out.
As having gone through the interview process relatively recently I'm happy to share my experience, provide referrals, etc.
