  1. Let the Mobile Games Begin!

  2. : Today in 1989, changed handheld gaming forever by releasing the original Game Boy.

  3. Last year 10,000 Paris Millionaires left France. If you do not like the 1% France has figured out how to get rid of them.

  4. Getting ready for Burning Man. Too much fun. My outfit is coming out of the trunk.

  5. Willy Higgenbotham's Pong type game in 1958 on an oscilloscope. 14 years before Atari did. We stand on Shoulders.

  6. If you want to succeed you should strike out on new paths, rather than travel the worn paths of accepted success. John D. Rockefeller

  7. If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right. Henry Ford

  8. Just saw a study that associates early Pot Smoking with a permanent IQ loss of 10 points. Scary.

  9. The only thing that a 1850's person would recognize today are our schools. Why?

  10. I love the future that I see. It will be different and awesome if we have the will to embrace the change.

  11. You can't build a reputation on what you are going to do. Henery Ford

  12. This channel is awesome. I particularly like the "Science of Us" following 1000 babies born in 1972 throughout lif…/bit.ly/20M7hSb

  13. Arthur Rock does not get enough credit for his part in creating Silicon Valley. He almost single handedly created the economics of it all.

  14. Another old snap at the Franchise Meeting in Hawaii. I lost a golf cart in a gully, I hate golf. Impossible game.

  15. Imagine giving a speech in front of a big picture of yourself. A bit strange. I do love Equator. Food, Fun

  16. My Etak Navigation system. This was 1984 one year after the Transpac Yacht race where we figured out the system.

  17. The Amusement Park for my College summers. I managed the Games department. Managed 100 employees when age 23.

  18. This was the Computer Space Production Line. January 1971. Games have come along way since then.

  19. I love signs that are strange. What was the person thinking when making this one?

  20. Video games have never looked so good as with Walls360 graphics.

  21. Another test for a CEO, How many trade shows have you attended? Trade shows are a snapshot of an industry. Attend random shows and learn.

  22. Schools should get rid or classes. Being in the third grade means batch processing of individuals. Kids should move at their own best pace

  23. It looks like quantum entangled particles can be entangled in not just space but time. Change something now and effect the past. Weird!

  24. Jobs are a big part of learning. A college graduate that has not had about 5 or more jobs is risky for a startup. Especially as CEO.

  25. Found an old photo of a younger self and my little friends.

  26. Life would be better if all transportation was underground. No traffic, parked cars, noise and pollution. Only parks, not streets.

  27. I am optimistic about the future, The general trend has always been toward a better standard of living, health, safety and options.

  28. Bioengineering is fascinating, Will it be possible to grow a building, a cell phone? Think coral, the brain, trees.

  29. Just re-read Hyperion and the whole series. Still my favorite. Would love to meet Dan Simmons some day. I want to see a move of it too.

  30. If I am to ride a Space Elevator in my life you better hurry. Still strength to weight issues. Perhaps nano tubes can do it.

  31. Materials science ushers taller, stronger, cheaper and cooler structures. Aerogels, nanotubes, ceramics are just scratching the surface.

  32. It feels like Bioengineering is at about the same place as Silicon was in the 1960's. Massive amounts of understanding is needed there.

  33. Little Bill's teacher ask. "Define the difference between ignorance and apathy." Bill said, "I don't know and I don't care."

  34. Technology multiplies outcomes. The ambitious can become super beings, effecting huge sections of the economy. For good or ill?

  35. The jobs of tomorrow will be different. Are your skills ready?

  36. Passion drives outcomes. Get passionate about anything and turn it into a career. Make your job. No one can say no except your customer.

  37. Unemployment is a failure of education. Get the right skills and the future is yours.

  38. The worry about jobs going to robots is a failure of imagination. The future world that I want to live in will need everyone to build it.

  39. "Science is the belief in the ignorance of the experts" – Richard Feynman

  40. We lost one of Silicon Valley’s exceptional minds yesterday. We all stood on Andy’s shoulders and will miss him greatly. RIP.

  41. Virtual Reality is very cool but real reality is better. Meow Wolf is such an experience. It is worth a trip to Santa Fe.
