In this episode we catch up on life with a few big updates about the kids and what we’re learning as parents. We chat about the projects we’re working on at the moment, how we think about entrepreneurship, and why meeting people in the tech world still matters. We also explore some ideas around education, including homeschooling, and share a few thoughts from a book on the history of marriage. Plus Ali talks about his recent dive into Harry Potter fan fiction and why it’s surprisingly fun to read.
