Quotes
“There was this huge tradition of almost applied research in operating systems and I just became fascinated by that history.I think that drove me to go into the study of operating systems where I could do things like learn about the history of operating system kernels but also implement my own kernel in C.”
“We pivoted the business from indexing content and giving analytics to anyone about it to actually being a direct measurement approach for content for the worlds largest media companies. So we turned Pars.ly to a software as a service company some point around 2011.”
