About


Welcome to Troy Harlan’s (AKA “TheInfovore”) first blog.  Not much blogging going on here, but feel free to check on for the occasional updates.

About Me

I’m a product advisor for Workday, specializing in creating AI agents to speed up implementations of integrations for our Medium Enterprise clients. I presently live in San Diego, California. I love to travel and to ski (alpine – not any of that cross country stuff).
I grew up in small town Indiana.  Two of my grandparents were Amish, but I was more into the pies and trampolines at reunions than horse and buggies, etc.  I played all kinds of sports growing up, but only when my parents could yank me away from the Atari 2600 or Commodore 64. I still love to play tennis, PlayStation, and ski.

TheInfovore

My social networking nickname is “TheInfovore” because I like to consume information.  Lots of it.  Apparently it’s in my personality, so more often than not I can be found reading or listening to a podcast about one of the following topics:
  • Tech
  • AI agents & harnesses
  • The housing bubble, bust, and ensuing financial crisis
  • Evolution, evolutionary psychology, & evolutionary biology
  • Economics
  • Politics
  • Brain theory
  • Early retirement strategies
