Plot twist: I’m working for Google
So that’s a headline I never thought I’d be writing. But it’s true.
I recently flew out to Mountain View for orientation, meetings and my first visit ever to Google HQ.
I’m surprised we haven’t seen the headline, “Will Messenger Application Advertising Make The Same Mistakes As Mobile Web?”
For the past three months the only thing I have heard our tech team talking…

I’m in STEM and I’ve never experienced anyone lowering the bar for me or any of the women in our fields. I have watched many times as step ladders were offered to those with the privileged title of “white techie guy”. If you haven’t experienced it or helped support women in STEM who depart for more “acceptable” careers, (observing the higher…
I had heard about Engadget closing down comments recently, and assumed it was trolls or otherwise ignorant people. I keep thinking bigotry on the internet is attributed to the millennials who got left behind when the progressive, more-educated-on-social-issues train left the station, but I constantly see these comments spewed by adults, often much…

There is no denying that the Australian Open Grand Slam is one of the biggest sporting tournaments in the world. With only four Grand Slams played a year, winning the open is the dream of any professional tennis player.
That is a great read Jacob. As a cofounder of a virtual reality startup, I myself have been trying hard to penetrate the education sector in India. But it was quite difficult, from the point of view of content generation.

InnoVen Capital: Startup Outlook 2016
Here’s a crazy model for thinking about cable companies. What if they’re actually the final, valiant defenders standing between us and the race to the content-bottom? What if what people see as price gouging is actually in our best interest long-term?

It doesn’t fundamentally change the way people interact with computers — yet. But that could be a long ways away. Think the upgrade from punch cards to command line interface to graphical user interface. When VR becomes the next step, Apple will get involved (or may lead) that UI revolution.
Great article. That actually clarified some things for me. Thanks.
