OceanTech Friends,
One person actually unsubscribed last week after my little typo. Can you believe that? I hope it wasn’t any friends . . .
I’m technically on vacation this week, sitting in Stone Harbor, NJ with my toes in the sand looking out over the ocean. So today’s edition is a bit on the shorter side. Do other tech communities get this type of relaxation and enjoyment out of their field? I doubt it.
Have a good week friends.
