Canada needs more adults who take it upon themselves to build large businesses that employ many people instead of being middle management at Shopify or running a builders club or whatever. Yeah, build something... A $500MM ARR global business that gens cold hard cash. Oh, and

I need to rant about data centers in space. I don't know that much about space outside of watching every single episode of PBS spacetime 50 times over, but I do know a lot about data centers, I built a pretty big cloud provider. I'm actually amazed otherwise intelligent
