Thank you Aaron!

Fun fact: at least in the United States, chiropractors do not have medical degrees and so they are not licensed doctors.

I just want to congratulate you on launching a product that I hope will have an incredibly positive impact for numerous families. I wish you the best of luck in your endeavor!

Congrats to Jason and Cai! I don't know how much their product/service has changed, but I remember it making my life so much easier when I was raising money for my company.

>the companies (Amazon is directly complicit in this issue since they contributed immensely to the now largely unaffordable rental/housing market) that have profited from the area, need to ask the question if thousands of homeless people wandering the streets is an acceptable cost of doing business

I believe the shareholders have voted with a resounding yes. Companies are not out to make the world a better place - they are trying to maximize profits. I think we should try to find more pragmatic solutions such as improving government programs and creating non-profits to help with the homeless problem.

Many of them left. Some are still there working on things related to robotics, such as Verb Surgical. I'm sure a few became more traditional software engineers, although I don't know any personally.
