A startup culture that promotes others. That's what Jac Stark and I decided we wanted to see, especially in Minneapolis and Philadelphia... Passion is important, technology helps you get there, but bringing someone along (students, other businesses, your employees) might make THE difference. 

Jac builds community for Tech.mn.

This Evening I had some tangential programmer wisdom chats with Scott Messer. He is not some Guru, but he is a good guy, level headed, Detroit boy, former Ford-whiz, Swift Day 1-er, and current React Experimenter.

Some things we discussed:


Love and Love and Hate for Apple's Ecosystem,
the "Javascript Experience" ,
Ford vs Ferrari, or reasons not to race cars,
Free as in Freedom Software Ramblings from Richard Stallman,
Security and Reasonable Expectations of Privacy,
IBM Model-M Keyboards (featuring clicky sounds),

Enjoy!
