In the photo of him on his last day [0], there's a cassette deck on his desk.
That could be something mundane, but I'd like to believe something crazy happens if you yell at it [1]...

Terrible news from Intel, this guy seems like the best performance engineer on the planet

Where do you think he's going next? OpenAI? Google? Just saving 1% on inference could probably justify his salary 100fold
