I'm excited to announce that @dan and I have been working on a new non-profit, Rootstock Northwest, with some folks in the local food industry: https://rootstocknw.org

We have three goals:
1. Give fresh produce to the food insecure in our communities.
2. Support local producers and farmers to invest our community food chain
3. Deliver direct to homes to make fresh, local food accessible for all and minimize overhead.

We believe that everyone deserves access to fresh, high quality food and that we can simultaneously feed our communities and support local food chains by delivering produce to directly to those in need. With the current government instability, it is more important than ever to ensure the most vulnerable are fed and that our local food ecosystems are strengthened.

I've submitted my resignation letter to Apple. My last day will be this Friday, October 31st.

I'm starting a nonprofit company to create FOSH (Free Open Source Hardware) assistive consumer electronics, focused initially on assistive consumer electronics for blind people. I plan to release many small intermediate products for the maker community.

I plan to start working full time starting November 1st at Brain Computer Enterprises, Cooperative Inc.

Water is life 💦

What does that mean on an age of AI data centers and elite capture of our most basic necessities? I spoke with community organizer, Daniella Sherrill, about water sovereignty in Arizona’s communities.

A great listen if you’re looking for something hopeful amidst the MAGA news!

For years, a Phoenix nonprofit has run a mail room for thousands of homeless people, who use the address for job applications, for medication, to receive benefits like food stamp cards and even to vote.

Now the U.S. Postal Service is cutting its $24,000 investment, leaving the organization to raise the extra money to keep it open.
