@chadchabot Ah, we don’t use ticketing much but I did have to do some wrangling with their API to get it working for my use case if I recall. I’m down in Hamilton every so often so I’ll let you know when I’m headed there! And let me know if you’re in KW, it would be nice to catch up.

[Matt Charters @mcharters]

@chadchabot This sounds kinda like what the Basecamp guys are doing: https://t.co/O0lrB61PdU - but DHH has gone off the rails (haha) in recent years and not sure I want to buy his products anymore.

FWIW we have used Hubspot for ages and it works well enough for us if you wanna chat.

Thanks @melle for putting into words what it took me a while to figure out for myself, especially working around so many fast-growth companies in KW: bigger isn't always better, and there are advantages to being a "small business" as opposed to a "startup"

[Communitech @Communitech]

Thinking big is often the cultural default of the business world, but is bigger always better? Columnist @melle explores the merits of thinking small in a world where big gets all the glory.

@timcarrphoto @TSN_Sports Love ads that block me from content I've already paid for

@chadchabot @FairlyFrosted Fun! My app also barely works so no pressure!

[Matt Charters @mcharters]

@chadchabot I was wishing I had made one of these this morning… I’ll trade you my open source canvassing app for your GOTV app? 😉

[Matt Charters @mcharters]

I feel qualified to say that if re-elected, she will bring the same passion to the next four years as the last four.

Get out there and vote!

[Matt Charters @mcharters]

It’s municipal election day in Ontario! Which means you should go vote. And if you live in Waterloo’s ward 5, you should vote for @jenvasic2022!

[Matt Charters @mcharters]

I’ve seen firsthand in the last four years how hard she has worked for everyone in this community, how she listens to everyone who has reached out to her and how much consideration she puts into every decision.

I don't know how to end this except to say that I'm sad about the state of the world when it comes to white supremacy, a*ti-v*x*ers, misinformation and polarization and I don't know what we do to make it better. I guess that's what I should look up next.

[Matt Charters @mcharters]

This is so so disappointing. When I took over @TryCharityCAN I found @DHH to be a sane and empathetic voice in the world of tech, advocating for sustainability over extreme growth, for treating your employees like humans with lives outside of work, etc., etc.

But now when a group of white folks show up with blockades and demands that the government be dismantled, we should be "engag[ing] with the merits of the argument"? Please.
