Bio

Co-founded the visa-free startup ship, Blueseed, the Quantified Self Forum (a community for self-trackers), and two web startups using meteor.

Former Developer Advocate at Google - Progressive Web Apps (PWA), Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP), Chrome OS, and AR (Lens).

Former localization engineer at Yahoo!. I currently discourage localization in general, for reasons I haven't seen successfully challenged since 2009, with the exception of translating basic computer programming materials as a way to onboard new developers.

More about me on on Wikipedia or on my website. My CV is on StackOverflow Careers.
