I think of myself as a software developer
Trying to make a better work environment
I don't believe we can manage people
This time of year seven years ago
Purely by accident
Sitting and thinking at the keyboard alone
One member who's not there
Five or six people programming
Opening different doors
If you open a door, there's a good chance somebody will welcome you in
Superconnectors
One of those connector things
Oddly, it is working for us
Purposeful stumbling
I stopped looking for solutions to problems
A habit we need to build
I just went ahead and did it
I'll discover stuff if I just try it
We follow the path that develops in front of us
Your job is very important
He was extending trust to me
These things are not related
A gentle way to think about our lives
