Software. Startups. Outer Space.
I was asked by a close friend earlier this week about whether or not I have any references, books, or recommended reading for anyone wanting to get into startups. I don’t have a single source that I can point to, so I thought I’d write one!
Let’s start from the...
And now for something completely different - I’m hosting a conference in the November 12-13th in Mountain View, California called Access to {AI}.
