Snapchat is the platform I should have built at Justin.tv, so I’m jumping on the bandwagon and going hard on Snapchat.
Snapchat built an elegant, incredibly well-thought-out tool to make it fun, simple, and frictionless for normal people to share snippets of their lives in an interesting way.

When you see pictures of Gordie even at 50, you could see he was just a powerful man. You see Patty Marleau and he’s built too. He’s very durable because he’s so strong, very flexible, but ultimately he puts in the work during the offseason. He doesn’t take a day off and he’s always trying to get better. He never takes a second off.
We are fortunate enough to live in a state that is rich with diversity, and we are built on a foundation of unity and fairness for all of our citizens. We respect our fellow citizens for their beliefs, but we do not discriminate based on our disagreements.

I come from a family where my father did things single-handedly and he built a music empire himself.
One day I decided to go to a hardware store – I picked up six pieces of wood, a hammer and nails, and built a box.

We’d realized in the first ten years we’d built an infrastructure competence deep in the stack – reliable, scalable cost effective data centers to grow the Amazon retail biz the way we needed to. But we’d built Amazon so quickly that a number of the pieces of the platform had become entangled.
Hong Cha-young is the type who doesn’t back down but breaks through fear and moves forward without hesitation. Her head-on,’ break-through’ attitude in life is similar to mine. But her speech, behavior, and reactions were thoroughly built for the character of Hong Cha-young.
It was extremely tough to leave Washington. Especially with the chemistry that we built, players getting better over there. My family and the players, our families became really close. That was tough, I ain’t going to lie.

It is incredibly exciting to be able to actually go and live on the space station after having worked so long on seeing the hardware built, getting it launched and maintaining it.
