Some of the best computer scientists I have met and are friends with have studied at #SharifUniversity. Today, this university is under attack by a ruthless dictatorial regime that is targeting the brightest of people. Be their voice, social awareness matters #IranProtests

(1/3) Ruth Bader Ginsburg lived a towering life. She should be admired, remembered, and honored.
It would be nice if our politics allowed even a day to pass before pouncing on the death of a patriot for political purposes.

Now is not the time to cut our nation off from the world’s talent or create uncertainty and anxiety. Immigrants play a vital role at our company and support our country’s critical infrastructure. They are contributing to this country at a time when we need them most.
