Hello my friends! My protocol pals! My computational compadres!
I’m David, a technology reporter and co-host of the Waveform Podcast. I’ll be hosting a subscriber-only “AMA” today at 11AM PT / 2PM ET. For the next six weeks I’m filling in for senior reviewer Allison Johnson, who you are all likely very familiar with. That means I’ll be covering new releases from Apple, Google, Samsung, and the works. I’ve already done some freelancing for The Verge, including camera reviews, attending the Switch 2 launch event, and co-hosting episodes of the Vergecast and Version History, so you may have seen me before!
