.@Fidomobile You overcharged my cell phone bill and there's no way to resolve with a human.
Your customer support phone uselessly offers:
"Talk to a specialist today, tomorrow, or Monday"
and then "Sorry, all of the slots are full"
How do we fix this?

What happened at @startupfest yesterday was antisemitism. Pure & simple. Disguised under a thin veil of advocacy, and everyone in the room saw right through it.
I was on stage with Georges St-Pierre talking about entrepreneurship. Not politics. A man burst in screaming horrible accusations at me anyway. Third time in 2 years, including at the opening of a Jewish community centre.
My parents were in the front row. I'll never forget their faces.
When the target is always the Jew and never the topic, it's not advocacy. It's hate.
The room booed him down and cheered as he was walked out. I'm grateful for that.
Hate got escorted out. We got right back to building.
It was the second time the entrepreneur’s appearance at the event has been disrupted.

Our team just launched Tidra.
20-50% of engineering capacity gets eaten by maintenance work nobody talks about.
Dependency upgrades, tool migrations, security patches. All repeated across hundreds of repos.
We built Tidra to fix it. AI agents that generate merge-ready PRs across your whole org in minutes.

Every time you let the standards slip you set new standards. We are at the end of a long downwards spiral of standards slipping.
Look, everyone can believe whatever they want. It’s not about beliefs, it’s about behavior, especially when it affects others. Law and order has to enforce behavior independent of causes. Somehow, some causes seem to be allowed behavior that would never be tolerated from other causes. This double standard has to stop. Imagine the cause here would be flatearthers against indigo for selling globes spamming pro 2D plane slogans.
Cities can only function when there is a basic assumption of safety and decency. We must be more assertive with enforcing tenable norms. @oliviachow, we need your leadership here and in all the other unprecedented stuff going in our cities.

Canada needs to look at this with fresh eyes and see it for what it is
⚠️Masked pro-Hamas thugs, completely gone mad, are smashing windows in Montreal, Canada, attacking everyone and terrorizing the streets as they shout genocidal chants.
How the hell did Canada come to this?

The scenes from the streets of Amsterdam tonight are absolutely horrific.
This is what “globalize the intifada” looks like.
Don’t look the other way. Watch the footage and stand up against this lawless mob there and everywhere.
I know Sotomayor hypothesized a few weeks ago “[what if the president] orders the Navy's Seal Team Six to assassinate a political rival?”
It was supposed to be a hypothetical!
I found out about Unzoomed today.
Without spoiling today's clue, my first response was "This place looks sad with all the empty parking lots. Wait. Is that one building _____? Park to the north? Oh man, I know where this is."

I’ve been grateful to friends and colleagues who have reached out in recent weeks in response to the Hamas terror attacks and open displays of antisemitism. This piece captures the feeling of many I know so well. It really is a must-read right to the end.
