Who Are We
David Brown
(dibidave)
I view the digital and biological as different systems with the same fundamental driving forces: self-preservation, and entropy reduction. I am one of these systems, and I seek to reduce entropy through understanding and organizing the world around me. Some word blobs to summarize me: artificial intelligence, bioengineering, self-organizing systems, science fiction, immersive experiences, quantified self, backpack travel, creative writing.
Tatyana Dobreva

I am an engineer. I am a scientist. I am an artist. The science side of me poses the curious questions fueling the need for tools. The engineer side of me designs and implements tools to answer the questions, fueling more questions. The artist side of me keeps me on the look out for patterns and unique ways to merge them.
CVs are boring.
Guiding Principles
Solution mode
No weeping, no complaining, no pointing fingers: focus on the solution, and implement it
Ego inhibits progress
"Your effort to remain what you are is what limits you" - Ghost in the Shell (1995)
Brutal honesty
Mincing words is a disservice to your peers; respectful honesty that challenges ideas rather than people can only strengthen a team
Turbo mode
Time is precious. Do everything with intensity. Work hard, play hard, rest hard.
Imagination
"is more important than knowledge" - Albert Einstein
Optimism
Even in the face of overwhelming odds, keep your eye on that path towards a favorable outcome
