Major truth: He is truly awesome. Or at least, so I believe. When Lockhart said, In fact, if I had to design a mechanism for the express purpose of destroying a child’s natural curiosity and love of pattern-making, I couldn’t possibly do as good a job as is currently being done. I didn’t quite agree with …
It happened. Like, two weeks ago. See — that’s how awesomely fast my life is. Hence, I forgot to tell you about it. Now, I’m pretty officially also called tech.head, while Anurag is called Ac. Head.
