From the discussion
A few top-level comments from Hacker News, shortened. Read the full thread on Hacker News.
Watching him in Star Trek TNG made me reevaluate how management of people should be done, his character was assertive but compassionate. High morals coupled with grounded reason. I also want to mention his hilarious role as bullock in American dad, the way he takes a role both so seriously and ridiculously makes him…
One thing that doesn't get enough attention - when COVID lockdowns started, he just made reels reading Shakespeare's sonnets. It was such a lovely break from everything else on social media. Really loved those.
"It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness, that is life." - Jean-Luc Picard Good startup advice. Good life advice.
