The team met for a build session (& filmed something big 👀🐉).
With people flying in from across ON, QC & the U.S., in-person time matters when you’re building at this pace.
We recapped a wild year & locked in 2026 plans for https://t.co/owPdSHmISz & BarkOS.
Grateful.🙏
Had a blast at @cbcdragon 's 20th Anniversary celebration last week! 🐉
Panels were 🔥, the founder energy was real, and it was great reconnecting with some familiar faces from the den.
Season 20 is going to be one to watch 😉👀
Apple’s 2025 playbook is clear: prioritize sleek, beautiful tech that feels elite without demanding max specs. The iPhone Air is the blueprint. Action plan: Expect the thin-performance hybrid category to dominate premium tech in 2026 — and invest or build accordingly.
Apple's biggest innovation in 2025 wasn't a new feature — it was how they redefined what premium tech feels like. The iPhone Air changes everything you expect from a 'Pro' device 🧵👇
At $999, the iPhone Air costs more than the iPhone 17, but less than the Pro. Reality: This price signals a new premium middle ground — for consumers who want prestige without bulk or max specs.
When Google put AI at the center of Pixel 10, it wasn’t chasing trends, it was redefining the smartphone itself.
Phones won’t be devices you use, they’ll be assistants that anticipate you. If you’re building for mobile, build for AI-first experiences. The future already arrived
Google bakes Content Credentials (C2PA) into the camera — flagging AI edits at the source.
Reality: This isn’t policing — it's preemptive trust. The first AI-native phone is also the first to deliver transparency at scale.
