I’m stunned and sad to read that Om Malik died. He was a Renaissance Man of tech, his blog posts always informative and insightful. I enjoyed seeing his photography and reading of his deep love of fountain pens.
In his last post, dated June 8, Om wrote he was taking a few days off:
I am taking a few days off. No posts here, no newsletter, no notes from the road. Things will be quiet on om.co until I am back.
The last few months have been heavy on output. Essays, the newsletter with Fred, the long pieces on OpenAI and AI infrastructure, the photo work, the pen notes. It adds up. My brain needs a break. I need some exercise as well.
I will not be checking email. I will not be reading Feedbin. I will not be drafting in my head. Time to read some fiction. Mysteries, to be precise.
If you have written to me recently and I have not replied, I will get to it when I am back.
I will see you in a few days.
Sadly not.
