That wasn't a snipe; it was genuine admiration, phrased with a touch of hyperbole. I've learned more from your history of hacks than from an average HN post.

A chronological CV would be great, though; to put all the anecdotes in an overarching framework.
- jacquesm 17y agoWell, forgive me for having long toes but it could easily be taken in another way. That's the downside of a digital forum, tone of voice is not one of the style attributes :) I've never even thought anybody would be interested in the stuff that I did long ago, as I said, I've been quite busy. Hacker News brings up the memories though, lots of this stuff I haven't even thought about for years. But the Chuck Moore post the other day brought back lots of memories of the 'dadadata' times. I never had a real plan, just an endless fascination with technology, maybe if I had a plan things would run smoother :) As for all the details, that will take some time if you're seriously interested. The people that I've met and that left the strongest impression on me are a guy called Eckart Wintzen, Guerrino de Luca, as well as Rene Somer and some other people at logitech. I came within a hair of meeting Doug Engelbart when visiting there several years ago and I really regret not changing my plans. Drop me an email if you will ?
