Went to @startup grind to speak on a panel and ran into Alex Pashintsev after many years. Back in the ’90s at Paragraph, he led development of the first real-time pen-based cursive recognition system shipped on Apple Newton. He gave it to me for my VR work back then. Legendary.
I recently attended the Semafor World Economy forum in Washington DC @semafor , which brought together an impressive array of government officials, business leaders, startups, media, and investors. This unique event facilitated connections that might have otherwise been impossible. I had the chance to meet some truly fascinating people.
