I'm at Nvidia but based out of DC - another of my many steps from bench science to policy work that began, believe it or not, when I read Gervais Principle in my last year of grad school. 010
Eric Breckenfeld @ericbreckenfeld.bsky.social · 30/11/2024I actually had no idea you were specifically active in the semi space, was an on-and-off reader since maybe 2012. I do recall you mentioning an advanced engineering degree getting you occasionally binned as a "head in the clouds" type in the consulting space. Still happens to me at times. 110
