Kaz Nejatian@nejatian
In 2019, a month after I had joined Shopify, I sent this note to my team. I called it "say the thing" and I think it has stood the test of time well.

DSM diagnosis can also be destructive if it:
1)is wrong
2)leads to needless/harmful treatment
3)promotes stigma
4)reduces expectations
5)creates hopelessness
6)has no expiration date
7)is rushed/unempathic
Allen Frances@AllenFrancesMD
Getting a DSM diagnosis can be a very positive turning point in a person's life if: 1)it is accurate 2)done with empathy 3)promotes feeling understood 4)inspires hope 5)reduces anxious uncertainty & feeling uniquely damned

@robjama Sounds like @newsystems_ needs a few extra stories on top

thinking about what the dream builder space in Toronto looks like.
- probably in the spadina area
- curated coworking for startups and free agents
- regular educational workshops and meetups
- half court that doubles as event space
- media studio for podcasts and video production
- gym with squat rack and pull up bars
- premo coffee and a majlis for the vibes
what's missing?

If you're building something for Canada right now – a company, a project, a community, infrastructure – you should be incredibly proud of that.
If this is you, share what you're building in the replies below so we can stay in touch. 🚀🇨🇦

I probably don’t talk about my podcast as much as I should because they not only feature bootstrapped builders in 🇨🇦, but their backstories are incredibly inspiring.
I honestly just do this for fun, so when I see even 1 download, it’s really exciting. Thought seeing this number was worth looking back on.

AI medicine is inevitable.
In fact, it has arrived.
We're excited about this agreement with Utah to allow our AI to prescribe psychiatric renewals.
Yes. AI prescribing medication.
This is monumental and will collapse the cost of care.
