Amazon reviews as poetry

10 Feb 2014 | Reading time: 0 min

NS Pritchard left this poetic review for the timeless Casio F91-W:

Cars break down, phones malfunction, computers get infected but the F 91 soldiers on. Cheap and ubiquitous. Everybody seems to have owned one. Its “beep beep” woke thousands this morning. It measured and guided their days all long. It has a stopwatch, a light, an alarm: This is what I need and all I need from a digital watch. In moderate climes the battery will last for seven years (based on an alarm and one seconds’ worth of light use per day). I wish my life was so efficient and so certain. I wish I was so dependable.

Currently CTO at Mast. Formerly engineering at Thought Machine, Pivotal. Makers Academy alumnus.

I've pledged to give 10% of my income to highly effective charities working to improve animal welfare. If my startup is successful, I hope to give away much more.

Also founded EA Work Club, a job board for effective altruists, and Let's Fund, a crowdfunding site for high-risk, high-reward social impact projects.
