@zg_dev We met through a “Geek Beers” meetup that I’d been running (and still run).

@scottbalster I believe we closed that the shops in ~2005. I didn’t start another business until around ~2010 where I started building websites on the side.

@iamjeremyenns Basically, if there’s a big show in the Okanagan, it’s probably going to be in Penticton, so everybody from Kelowna, Vernon, etc, drives there. 😄

@sherrywalling We’re very much experiencing this in the Pacific North West, as wildfires and smoke increasingly choke our skies.

@EmmettNaughton @chartrdaily During the initial years of the pandemic many people were stuck at home and decided to try starting a podcast.

It’s natural that numbers would revert to the natural growth trend. 👍

@jsonperl Increasingly it feels like many of the problems in tech businesses are a result of sloshing around venture capital, which enables people to build companies that don’t have real fundamentals (revenue - costs = profit)

As @matthewstoller says, it’s “Counterfeit Capitalism.”

@TimLeland That's an interesting theory, but I don't think it's actually true.

@SamuelHulick 👋 former Christian minister here, now an atheist. (I can't claim to represent either group 😅)

For Christians, much of God's desire for his creation is ascribed to his nature. Believers have faith in God's revealed nature ("I AM WHO I AM"), which includes trusting his motives.

We see this all the time when doing support for Transistor: some people think they have to be blunt and loud to get the service they need.

As @jennschiffer says, they’ve been trained through past experiences to think that way.

The biggest win is you'll stop getting these ridiculous pitches from "CEOs who want to be on your podcast."

🙅‍♂️ no more unsolicited guest pitches!
🙅‍♂️ no more "RE: follow-up, did you get my last email?"
