Paul Ford isn’t easy to sum up, so we originally copped out and wrote the silly one-line bio we read before his talk. He’s one of the most talented writers and programmers we know, frighteningly and frustratingly accomplished at both. He most recently created Tilde.club—a Unix server that is definitely not a social network—writes for The Message on Medium, and is working on a book about web pages for FSG while raising twins in Brooklyn, NY. He is a really great hugger.
