"Theres no financial aspect to stats."

"We are much better at writing code than haiku."

"Id have to think about that a lot more and probably study a little bit more. But the easy first answer is the United States. The idea that you have a nation started with what you could term a fork. So a fork from the United Kingdom in terms of the American revolution, definitely went through some bumpy parts along the way but sort of ended up as one of the freest places in the world. Especially in regards to speech and property ownership rights and the democratic system. It isnt perfect, but is one of the best things out there. One of the things that I love is the equality of opportunity where its a meritocracy. Its not as important who you are, but its more what you do. You can have a huge amount of opportunity and the ability to succeed regardless of what youve done before or been involved in."

"Usage is like oxygen for ideas."

"Technology is closing the gap between what one can imagine and what one can do and as a result the equality of opportunity is unmatched in human history."

"Get the 1.0 out as soon as possible...even if it sucks."
