“Our Canadian footprint will not only get significantly larger but also significantly more strategic,” said @BilalToronto, head of Snowflake’s Canadian operations. “The native apps part of our platform is a big part of the future of Snowflake.” https://t.co/jiFpUIa7k8

This is gut wrenching. A 9 year old boy has been orphaned by this hateful incident (he’s currently in the ICU). This young boys life has been shattered in a split moment of senseless hate. 😔

If #fakenews caused this much havoc, imagine what #deepfakes will be capable of. Things are about to get a lot more complicated.

Here’s the crazy thing about this Tom Cruise deepfake....

This isn’t even a super high quality deepfake and I’m willing to bet that it could fool most people.

Now imagine the quality of deepfake a government agency could produce.

Congratulations to the 🇺🇸 for preserving their democracy!🗽

This election revealed an uncomfortable truth about the state of the nation. The divisions run deep.

Enjoy the celebrations, it’s well deserved, but know there’s a long, difficult road ahead. It’s time to rebuild.

‘Here’s the message I got, people like what I’m doing and I’m going to keep doing it.’ - Senator Lindsay Graham

And this right here sums up the root of the problem, regardless of who wins this election.

Interesting new data coming out of Spain, makes a strong case that ventilation is one of the key factors to mitigating coronavirus infections, along with wearing a mask and limiting the period of time in one location. With winter coming it’s worth a read. https://t.co/CsSGszsxUF

Huge congrats to @Selcukatli and team @bunchgames on the 50X user growth, and for closing a $20M SeriesA led by @gcvp @bonatsos, with some of the largest game developers in the world 🌎

I’m lucky to be an investor and excited for them to connect the world through social gaming.

[General Catalyst @generalcatalyst]

Spending time with friends doing things we all enjoy is more important than ever. That's why we're excited to back @bunchgames, the social platform for playing games together. Welcome @Selcukatli & team!

This is also a time to examine how I may have enabled the current system to operate this way for far too long and reflect on the role I will play in creating the change we so desperately need.

[Bilal Khan @BilalToronto]

There’s a time to speak and a time to listen, and right now for me, this is a profound time to listen. To acknowledge the hurt and pain, to learn from the experience of my black friends, to reflect on the racial injustice that is so deeply imbedded in our systems and institutions

[Bilal Khan @BilalToronto]

@NoraVBieber Thanks Nora! All great suggestions, and will absolutely do all of these, but for right now I just need to listen.

[Bilal Khan @BilalToronto]

What’s one to do when they don’t want to stay silent, but are at an absolute complete loss for words?! #BLM

[Bilal Khan @BilalToronto]

@davyde Good advice, and I normally would, but this one is much more complex than 280 characters allows.
