Remember in 2021 when software companies were swearing up and down that remote work made everyone more productive ... and now they have all done Return-To-Office mandates because that was so deeply wrong?

That is "LLMs make programmers tons more productive!!!" in 2025.

We need to be doing everything we can to turn Canada into the best place for entrepreneurs to build 🇨🇦

What's proposed in the federal budget will do the complete opposite. Innovators and entrepreneurs will suffer and their success will be penalized -- this is not a wealth tax, it's a tax on innovation and risk taking.

Our policy failures are America's gains. At a time when our country is facing critically low productivity and business investment our political leaders are failing our country's entrepreneurs.

Please start listening to the people in the arena.

schools should include a class called Truth Is Hard, where u get bombarded with examples of confused eyewitnesses, incorrect public outrages, studies that failed to replicate, super convincing arguments that fall apart with one additional fact u didn't expect, etc.

My boys gave me a card this morning (hastily in the shower cuz they couldn't wait). I think their mom might've helped write the card...

@johnduff @bobbytables @CarlesSistare @davidkonsumer @EdgePress Thanks, man! We started in early April thinking it would take a couple of weeks :) The outline came together fairly quickly, but getting really solid (edited and tech reviewed) content that we were all happy with took a lot of time and effort. My kids definitely missed me.
