Hi, I'm Alex. This is Brandon and Mike, and together with our trusty prototype Marvin, we are Varden Labs.

I've been programming since I was 13 years old. I was ranked as one of the top 20 programmers in Canada in high school, and most recently, I worked as a software engineering intern at Khan Academy in Mountain View.

I'm Mike. I do mechanical stuff at Varden Labs. I've done mechanical stuff all my life. I built my own fully custom 3D printer, electric scooter, and most recently worked at a YC alum, Thalmic Labs, as their mechanical intern.

Hi, I'm Brandon, and I'm doing software and electrical. Before Barton Labs, I had worked at three startups, all with aggressive development confidence. The most recent was an artificial intelligence company where I was programming robots to interact with their environment.

The three of us were in the same mechatronics engineering class at the University of Waterloo. We've lived together for the last two years and worked on lots of projects together. This is by far our favorite, and we're really excited to see how it's going to transform the future of transportation.

How I sell private jets to billionaires!

Fake machine guns found at JFK mail facility | To Catch a Smuggler

[♪ suspenseful music plays] [Officer Cisneros] A suit machine gun. Okay, I can see by the mechanism that this isn’t a toy. Has a magazine. It’s an airsoft magazine. Shoots pellets. The problem that we have with this, it must have an orange tip that is at…

Let That Be a Lesson

I think what’s appropriate is a very simple story that I think you’ll appreciate. There’s an island right off the coast of South Africa where the largest population of sardines exists. Seals love sardines; hundreds of thousands of them sit on an island ju…

Surface area to volume ratio of cells | Cell structure and function | AP Biology | Khan Academy

So let’s say that this is a cell. We know that all sorts of activity is going on inside of this cell here, and we will study that in a lot more depth as we go further in our study of biology. But it’s important to realize that this cell and the activity …
