Reflecting on a roller coaster year for robotics • TechCrunch

I'm excited by the boost this newsletter has been getting in recent months and wanted to keep the light on while I was out. Three weeks is the longest break I've taken for work in…ever, really. Went to a bunch of museums (do yourself a favor and check out Edward Hopper at the Whitney and Morris Hirshfield at the American Folk Art Museum -- can't recommend them enough) and spent a few days in Aruba, of all places. Still not sure why flights were so cheap, but if you're ever looking for a nice place to stay on the island for $150 a night, let me know. Go make friends with a miniature donkey.
