  1. Before there were #SV #tech #AI #ML demos, there was their 'mother'. Rewatching Doug Engelbart's "The Mother of All Demos"

    The history of #PARC and #SRI is the history of computing.

    Fun tidbit: Engelbart apparently 'dealt lightning with both hands'. Research presenters at PARC were called 'dealers of lightning'. PARC still holds a weekly 'Dealer' seminar.

  2. #PARC joins forces with #StanfordResearchInstitute #SRI #SRIInc to form one of the largest #CS #AI #Tech research non-profits.

    Research at a non-profit, that is funded by the public, supports science that is conducted in good faith, is accessible, and is for the social, communal good.

    I am so very excited!

    I am also very grateful that market pressures don't pull my research in random directions.
