" Ovens Inc. doesn’t live off selling ovens (for now). It lives off raising rounds. And rounds are raised with projections, and projections are manufactured out of whatever sales promises. The “No problem” people are also the only life raft."

Ever try make a product using Google Glass?

You're similarly not limited by what you can readily understand.

Being comfortable with the default level of trust is one thing. Command of the code is another.

We did. We just didn’t classify it with a hashtag.

I have done it the ugly way (in production) and I want elegance in my old age.
