I have decided to step away from my role at Google, where I was Senior Director of Engineering, responsible for OS and Software Platform for AR and XR devices. The recent changes in AR leadership and Google’s unstable commitment and vision have weighed heavily on my decision.

@essenviews The co-defendants can save a lot on legal fees by simply accepting responsibility, showing remorse, pleading guilty, and allowing accountability to start. It’s their choice to fight the facts. If they choose to bankrupt themselves along the way it’s their choice. Just like it.

@thejackhopkins @PeteSouza He was not hit by anything. I pricked his ear or exploded a fake blood packet when he put his hand to his ear. There is no world where a real injury happened with such a tiny amount of “blood” — I mean there is nearly no “blood” and the collar of his shirt and cuff are “blood”.

@SRuhle Lots of people are pissed off at YOU, YOUR NETWORK, and YOUR PEERs in the press. You know the what Trumps plans are, you know that he’s already shared classified information with our enemy’s, you know he thinks women are trash — only useful in one way thats all about him. You.

@Carnage4Life I had a VP at Google that did this sort of thing. In his case, he was paranoid of writing anything down. Afraid that anything he said would potentially come up in discovery if there was a legal action in the future. Guy was literally afraid of having an opinion and sharing it in.

@GergelyOrosz I would say instead that we TRIED to build the system every night. BUT given the size of the C code base, it didn’t take too much to break the entire build with a sloppy header file change. This coupled with our source code control system made the entire process hell on earth.
