David Chouinard

I'm a software engineer (Ruby & Javascript) with a passion for making things that people love. I invent tools that enable people to understand and create in powerful ways. I run TEDxMontreal and I'm out to make a dent in the universe.

In no particular order, I love Vim, TED, Legos, typography, Instapaper, neuroscience, the Apple remote, Wikipedia, good copy, math, the Khan Academy. Also, I hang out on Hacker News too much.

I enjoy the company of smart and interesting people, I look up to people like Jason Fried, Albert Einstein, Edward Tufte, Richard Feynman, Seth Godin, Bret Victor, Derek Sivers and Paul Graham.
