He's smart but he doesn't sound like an engineer at this point in his life/career. He sounds like a wealthy person who reads a wide variety of books/tweets and has range of smart but shallow talking points combined with a good deal of practiced hand waving. Chris Dixon sounds exactly like him. I wonder if Marc has written more than a 'hello, world' in the past 5-10 years. He's probably better versed in modern art and finance than he is in computer science or engineering these days.
