In Memory of Robert Kaye
Quoting: In Memory of Robert Kaye – Quick Fixes —
I interviewed Robert back in 2017 because he was going to deliver the opening keynote at Akademy that year. He was one of the funniest and most authentic people I have ever met, full of wonderful stories and daring ideas.

Robert, you will be sorely missed, but your work lives on. Rest in peace, you legend.
