After working in the east coast for 7 years, working on big company software, i'm going full time remote and moving to the valley. I want to see if it really is the mecca for people passionate about software development and ideas in general. It is going to be hard, my big co stack isn't used much in the valley, and because of that i'm not sure how much my experience will count, so i'm going to essentially start from the ground up. I hope to find a "home" that i've never been able to find on the east coast.

I plan to release a distributed knowledge base that supports real/ideal states of the past/present/future states of the world, intended to replace most internet services (e.g., Craigslist, eBay, Amazon, Uber, Airbnb, Dropbox, Facebook, Reddit, Wikipedia, BitTorrent, Bitcoin).

My goal is to slow down to a more manageable pace and allow for more reflection and dreaming. 2018 was a hectic and eventful year and I am absolutely amazed by how much happened, but I can also feel that I completely neglected the importance of winding down. I recently completed a biography[0] and the subject in question lost all his responsibility, in turn it let him suddenly have the time to pay attention to the small details relating to his former work. Now, I’m not interested in loosing my responsibilities, but I do want to give them the attention they deserve. [0]: The Power Broker, Robert Caro

Learn how to play the piano. Continue the deep dive into electronics and hopefully assemble an analog audio synthesizer while completely understanding what I'm doing.

Find some truly meaningful work, and get deeper into music. Hobbywise, maybe build a eurorack and some planar speakers.

Get back to nature. I just moved out to Western Montana (now working fully remote). Looking to do more (or start) hiking, backpacking, cycling, fishing, boating, sitting, relaxing, archery, shooting, maybe hunting, wood woork, and learn to take care of these 10 acres I now have.
