We are nerds. Welcome to the peculiar world of the generalized yet detailed global technologist.
Here we chat with our cohorts - who are coding television-on-demand security in Lisbon, attending class via video working on the open ocean in a research vessel while preparing to win an international martial arts competition in Tokyo, contemplating how to re-engineer a 100+ year old trucking company supply chain and communications system, traveling to Nepal to photograph and document a 1000 year old secret ritual and publish it on the Internet and in academia, establishing new standards for antiquated backwards thinking medical staff because we care.
Where the words 'I want to get off the grid' are more shocking than anything about sex or drugs. Here we have different standards than most people, and when it comes to technology sometimes our expectations of ourselves and the tech - well they are very high.
Here you find us where the belief that technology can help make the world a better place is not just a dream, it is a shared goal.
It is not a gentle ride.

Question: Can you use "qoph" in a sentence?
Answer: Not if I want to keep my friends.
The origin of Qoph is usually thought to have come from a pictogram of a monkey, with the body and tail shown (In Hebrew, Qoph, spelled in Hebrew letters as קוף, means "monkey", and K'of in Old Egyptian meant a type of monkey). Others have proposed that it originated from a pictogram of someone's head and neck (Qaph in Arabic meant the nape).
