Look I love #innovation and #startups. It's my whole industry.

But is terrifying to me how many new startup ideas are trying to solve the symptoms of systemic problems caused by an exploitative, unsustainable society; essentially enabling the further ignorance of the core issue.

Got around to watching the final @thegrandtour today. #TopGear and the trio got me through a lot in university and the years that followed. Going to miss that. Thanks @JeremyClarkson @RichardHammond @MrJamesMay .

#UnpopularOpinion I think hardcase carry-ons that are the exact max allowable dimensions should be banned.

I haven't been on a flight that hasn't complained about full of bins in... A decade. There's no way by function of volume this is actually maxed out?

@Kaitlawn I told you not to!

Grocery stores approaching a holiday are my personal hell.

[Daryl Dominique @DarylDominique]

@GiseleRoberts1 @RealAndreDumais @mikecommito @SteveMGravel Well, I'm in town and will rarely turn down the offer of a beer so... I can stop in on Thursday?

[Daryl Dominique @DarylDominique]

@WBLievers @laurentianshad @LUEngrCompSci I had them all month for design & entrepreneurship. They're an incredible group, it'll be fun!

@neilshyminsky It's brutal. People keep responding with "Oh I thought the market cooled off?"

It didn't cool off on starter homes... Those are a bloodbath right now.

[Daryl Dominique @DarylDominique]

I was just outbid on a starter home in Whitefish, Ontario by $100,000... And my offer was already $20k over asking.

... This is rural northern #Ontario.

... What the hell? I think I give up on #housing at this point?

Guys, stop complaining about this #Titanic #submarine! If we hype it up as a rare one in a million freak accident, maybe more rich people will seal themselves in metal tubes and launch themselves into the depths never to be seen again. Think about the long game.

[Daryl Dominique @DarylDominique]

@Diablo Pls extend. :(

I only get home this evening. 😭

[Daryl Dominique @DarylDominique]

... So @Diablo, I only get back home Sunday evening. What are the odds we can get another extended day of access eh?... #DiabloIV #DiabloServerSlam

[Daryl Dominique @DarylDominique]

@KenWiafe One of my favorite movies!

@serolfmas9 I bought myself new sheets, a duvet, and duvet cover for my birthday a few years back.

That was when I accepted my age. Also it was a great birthday gift to myself.

[Daryl Dominique @DarylDominique]

@Kaitlawn Valid feelings.

[Daryl Dominique @DarylDominique]

Reminder that I'm running "Make Things People Want" @IqSudbury tomorrow!

It's a workshop on understanding value, pain points, product design decisions, and competitive advantages; presented as casually as possible. :)

Hope to see folks there or online!

[Daryl Dominique @DarylDominique]

I'm doing another workshop next week. :)

If you're looking for some help and ideas on your value proposition and creating value for your customers, come on out on April 6th!

[Daryl Dominique @DarylDominique]

@RealAndreDumais @DennysDiner .... But like... At that point why not just order something else?

[Daryl Dominique @DarylDominique]

@andrewomerknapp Yep.

[Daryl Dominique @DarylDominique]

Visiting my old stomping grounds on Friday!

If you're around @LaurentianU and looking to learn some tips, tricks, and techniques for finding gaps in the market and figuring out what value you can offer; stop in to the innovation centre at noon!

[The Foundry / La Fonderie @LUFoundry]

We are excited to welcome @DarylDominique as the 2nd speaker in our Basics of Entrepreneurship series. Daryl will be at the Fielding Innovation Space on Feb 17th at 12 pm to talk about defining your value proposition and identifying your target market. We'll even provide food!

[Daryl Dominique @DarylDominique]

@Danielleyasko Can never go wrong with Pat & Mario's roasted red pepper soup.

Or Alley Katz cream of broccoli soup.
