Hi, I'm Nick Winter.

• 

  I'm leveling up coding education.

  Learn to code with CodeCombat: a coding game that teaches computer science. 20M learners and counting. We're open source!

• 

  I made Skritter with George and Scott.

  You write Chinese and Japanese characters. Web, iOS, and Android. Skritter is ace.

• 

  I wrote a book.

  It's called The Motivation Hacker. It's about getting yourself to want to do everything you always wanted to want to do, and you will like it.

• 

  Behold the blog.

  I blog stuff like coding 120 hours in a week, getting into Y Combinator on stage, and unnecessary things.

• 

  I own only 99 things.

  People are surprisingly interested in this. Here's the list. Helps me not think about my things.

• 

  I helped out with Quantified Mind.

  Learn what affects your cognitive performance (butter?). My friend Yoni does all the work.
  

• 

  I'm Chloe Fan's husband.

  And also the dad of Max (2015), Clark (2017), and Ruby (2021). We recently moved from San Francisco to the Pacific Northwest.
