I'm a contrarian weirdo nerd who also, incidentally, makes very fancy computer keyboards.
Here I share what I'm reading and thinking about as I endeavor to navigate the absurdities of 21st century life.
Though a productivity-obsessed workaholic who has founded and sold four tech companies, I'm ambivalent about wealth, accomplishment, and status. Patriotism, politics, and propriety gross me out. I'm a Stoic minimalist yet fascinated by lavish art, commerce, and escapism. Above all, and against all evidence, I believe in retrofuturist dreams of technological progress, radical tolerance, love without inhibition, and a hopeful future for humanity.
Join the thousands of tech nerds, oddball entrepreneurs, and world-weary sentimentalists who read my newsletters.
