Miami

10 years in England meant I had to go watch England vs France. World Cup 3rd Place game. 10 goals! The best live sports game I have seen to date.

San Francisco

At Cerebras Supernova 2026. Got to meet CEO Andrew Feldman, CTO Sean Lie, and OpenAI’s usage-resetter Tibo! I wonder if wafer-scale compute is the economically optimal answer. As an engineer, that amount of SRAM is a marvel

Beverly Hills

Dinner with the great CEO of Ford Jim Farley. Jim flew in straight for the meeting - his work on the new Ford EV platform is admirable. I also told him to give my best to Max Verstappen, who’s Red Bull is sponsored by Ford Racing this season! Jim was flying to meet Max the following weekend for the Australian F1 opener.

Las Vegas

Amazing F1 Vegas weekend with great musical performances too! It was much colder than expected though - I’ll be bundling up next time

Somewhere near Boulder, CO

As part of a Crocs visit, I took a scenic detour. The mist made the landscape even more surreal than the Sony camera does it justice.
