"The vast forests of our national parks and timber farms have countless trees, but you can’t put 'countless' on the paperwork." 💯%! That's why our drones map forests with unprecedented accuracy + speed, while helping foresters make huge efficiency gains. Thanks @TechCrunch

The only way to keep going in 2020 is to build towards the future. Define and paint that future in high fidelity, ignore the noise, and build towards it. You own your future.

It might be Labor Day weekend, but let’s all remember that we're still in the middle of a pandemic. Wear a mask, practice social distancing, and follow the experts. It’ll save lives.

“Generate research ideas” may be on your #WorkFromHome to do list, but how do you do that? Can you just sit down and say “okay, time to think about ideas” and have them magically appear? Creativity definitely has some serendipity to it, but it is also something you can engineer.

Good ideas are missed every day because people are too busy looking for reasons to say no. Harry Potter. Seinfeld. Star Wars. Airbnb. Uber. Netflix. Even handwashing. Pro tip: try looking for reasons to say yes. #wef20 #FridayFeeling
