Thank you for working to fix a problem that would materially improve people's lives. I have a lot of respect for that. Finding a way to have both a technological and social impact in a single project is one of my longterm goals.

Homelessness is a topic I know embarrassingly little about. What has the data led you to recommend to cities, policy-wise?

It seems like large-scale data collection should be (but isn't) used to inform many public policy decisions. Another area where I think data could have a huge impact is studying how the punishments that criminals are served in court affects their outcomes later in life, and requiring judges to factor that data into their verdicts.
