Toronto is getting a new chief planner

Just over a year ago, Toronto's former chief planner, Gregg Lintern, announced that he would be retiring at the end of 2023. Here's the post I wrote thanking him for everything he had done for our city. He was a positive force in so many ways and I remember feeling sad at the time. Following the announcement, nobody knew who would replace him. But I remember thinking to myself, "you know who would be fantastic for this position, Jason Thorne." Jason and I met when Slate first started investin...

apologies for my male ego and non existent misogyny

if i were an ai agent, how would i explain the insecurity I feel when I ask a woman in public to walk with me? How would I approach this woman, whom i feel a strong physical connection with? What could I say to get her instagran, if not her number? Bottom line, how do i seek interactions away from her being a stranger to being mine? Otherwise, is it wrong for me to even claim ownership of her? She clearly has freewill. She is no different from me aside from her being the opposite of what I'm ...

Lessons from Microsoft's triumphant turnaround

Wired's latest cover story details Microsoft's transformation from a moribund has-been technological giant reaping the rent from yesterdays innovations to a leading edge company pioneering the future once again. Today the company is once again one of the world's most valuable companies, currently ranked third globally. Not too long ago the company was adrift. “Nadella doesn’t say outright what everyone in the room knows: Just a decade ago, pundits had declared the company brain-dead.”Today, u...

Bitcoin is up, condos are down

This is how the meme goes:At the time of writing this post, Bitcoin is up ~129% YTD. One Bitcoin is now US$101,256.70, which is a big deal in that it's a nice round milestone and it sounds like an impressive number to most people, including me. The result is that more people now want to buy Bitcoin, hence the above image. Now, this may turn out to be a good time to do this, or it may not be, I really have no idea. But as a crypto believer and long-term holder, I'm certainly happy to see this ...

dreams into reality

I got vivid dreams as a child. These dreams would be nightmares and in these horrific fantasies, I was either driving a car or getting chased by a character similar to Freddie Krueger. The dreams where I drove a car were mostly at ages eight or nine, maybe seven or six (I can't recall). I remember forcefully waking up in cold sweat after crashing my vehicle on roads filled with Indian traffic. My breaks would fail or I wouldn't know what pedals to press. Finally, my car would rear end another...
