I worked at Khan Academy for two internships and then just under 2 years fulltime, and don't know anyone that has anything less than positive to say about Kamens (nobody called him Ben because there were no less than 5 Bens at Khan Academy when I left).
One of his most memorable habits to me was coming into a meeting room where his words obviously had a lot of sway, then sitting on the ground when we were short on chairs.
He was an inspiration to many, first as an engineer, and later as a manager, and I'm excited to see what he takes on next.
