Favorite quotes:

"Users only ask for 2 kinds of features: the trivial and the impossible."
"Anyone capable of doing database work is capable of getting a better job."
"Software is like painting: If you think that knowing how to paint on a canvas is what Monet knew how to do, you do not understand what he was doing."
“He knows a lot about leaders – he follows them around all the time.”
Note: Please contact me if you are interested in improving health with technology (in a for-profit or non-profit context). If you just have a new trick to make a lot of money, please do not contact me.
If you contact me without having read this, our conversation will probably be a waste of my time.
And very short.
