I'm from the U.S., then I married a girl from Ottawa. Now I have francophone kids and two friends named Guy. Canada made me change jobs - I'm in tech now.

@acroll Couldn’t get that QR at the end of your #AccelerateOTT presentation (which was excellent btw!). Any chance you can share the link?

Love listening to you guys being confidently wrong! NHL was founded in Montreal in 1917 with the original teams being the Montreal Canadiens & Wanderers, Ottawa, and Toronto. The “Original Six” weren't a thing until 1942. But did include the Leafs and Canadiens. @mostlysports

@BarstoolBigCat At least AJ Storr showed the world that the Badgers are all class with that steal from the senior walk-on who was just dribbling out the clock!

@jeff_haden @Inc Nice article, but I would urge you to loop back to the master @work_matters and his classic book “The No Asshole Rule”

Not hearing much anymore about Apple supply issues, but as a biz that depends on their hardware - it's a real problem.
'You can only run Xcode on MacOS' also 'It's going to be 8-10 weeks for that new MBP'.
And today '6-8 weeks for a 96W charger'. The hell?

@MlxnNrd @PalayeRoyale Sorry - never saw your question. And the answer is no, I haven't heard anything. @PalayeRoyale any news on Canadian dates.

. @GooglePlayBiz trying to name a new app that includes "First Nations" in the title. Got dinged for this new policy https://t.co/ozDx22rBaj You do know what First Nations means, right? Where do we register a problem?

@SkepticsGuide As a Canadian, I might be forced to resort to violence if people take away an hour of my evening in the summertime. It’s dark all winter so who cares? But we suffer enough - we’ve earned that extra hour of daylight when it’s warm!

@ESPNLunardi Does it matter that Purdue is ahead of Ohio State in the Big Ten standings and has beaten them twice this season?

I don't always agree with @stuntpope but this one is bang-on perfect! #cantillionaires

@injuryexpert @indyindians If people don't see any problem with naming a sports team after a historically oppressed race of people, then my vote goes to "Indianapolis Obese-Undereducated-Xenophobes". No wait - they've never been oppressed.

@brianmccormick So yes on the sample size? ...and also, any coach who takes away a scholarship based on injury should be barred from the profession.

Apple's defense in the https://t.co/nkl1i73xIN story shows us, again, how indefensible their App Store policies are. Is this the first time that I'm 100% in agreement with @gruber? Perhaps.

Agile Mindset - it's what keeps driving me away from Agile. Until they eliminate that can't-quite-explain-it-but-gotta-have-it fluff, it's just a modern religion. @stevedenning nails it. Define your terms! https://t.co/OR4f3DmLcU

@scott_pm It's a relatively common issue for students with learning disabilities. My wife frequently teaches kids to develop this ability. They refer to it as 'mental imagery techniques'.
