S8 Bonus: Max Howell, Tea
About this episode
Max Howell did well in school, and was presented with the problem that - he didn't know what to do with himself. At that time, software wasn't cool, so he studied chemistry and started out a job in that industry. After he mastered his work environment within 3 months, he was disenchanted with the career path, and decided to stop going to work. Post installing Linux on his home computer, he started coding - and fell in love with it. Outside of tech, he is married with a young son. He enjoys a good beer, cooking a steak, and seeing how new everything is interpreted through his son's eyes.
Max is the creator of Homebrew, the widely used package manager which is probably installed on your computer right now. After the success of the tool, he wanted to figure out a way to continue to bring value to open source, and power digital money in the web3 space.
This is the creation story of Tea.
