I would never talk just to be social. Now, to sit down with a bunch of engineers and talk about the latest concrete forming systems, that's really interesting.

The kind of environment that we developed Google in, the reason that we were able to develop a search engine, is the web was so open. Once you get too many rules, that will stifle innovation. ↗

I think a craft becomes an art form when the space of possible solutions becomes so huge that engineering can't carry you through. ↗
