@AirCanada Is this a joke?

Air Canada Board of Directors announces the retirement of President and Chief Executive Officer: aircanada.com/media/air-cana… // Le Conseil d'administration d'Air Canada annonce le départ à la retraite du président et chef de la direction : aircanada.com/medias/le-cons…

@NHL_Muse @Berger_BYTES Matthews to Utah for Cooley, Weegar, 2026 2nd, 2027 first unconditional Matthews to LA for Clarke, Laferriere, 2026 1st and 3rd, 2027 top 10 protected 1st Matthews to Anaheim for Carlsson, Mintukov and two 1sts (26/27)

Maple Leafs reporter @Berger_BYTES says a “good source” texted him: “Your favorite captain will be traded, this summer, to one of three western teams: Anaheim, Los Angeles or Utah. Mark it down. [Auston Matthews] won’t be back with the Leafs.”

@Harry__Faulkner This is everything that is wrong with Canada. Worried about a bilingual message instead of dead pilots, injured people and the worst economy in the G7.

PM Mark Carney on Air Canada CEO Michael Rousseau delivering a video address only in English: "I'm very disappointed, as others are, rightly so, in this unilingual message of the CEO...lack of judgement and a lack of compassion."

Some takeaways from the Affiliate Takeover event in Miami Last week: Affiliate marketers are heavy users of AI. If you're in affiliate marketing and not leveraging the latest tools, you may have already lost. Value is shifting up the chain. Generalists now have the tools of specialists and tech-driven solutions are no longer gate-kept. This is driving vertical integration and an asset bias (own stuff or die). Expectation and Performance creep. If you work in affilaite marketing you're simply expected to produce more. The bar has been raised. Our industry has always been ahead of the curve and we are seeing a bifurcation in human capital. If you aren't "AI Native" you aren't going to make it.

Warm take: I don’t think we need to be talking about black hat and white hat anymore in affiliate marketing. Everything is white hat or it’s just illegal.

@pmitu Brains in a jar

What will come after AI?

Audit the AI. That's the job of humans. Only the MOST knowledgeable people who deeply understand their field can know when the AI is full of shit. The value of the AI auditor is commensurate to the value of the risks created by overly confident AI hallucinations.

@Oculustrade Yes but by taking on the risk of the Greeks you get leverage. If I think the direction is up (or down) within a certain time frame I can capture a multiple of the return using options. Not sure who this advice is for.

Something a lot of traders don’t realize: once you can afford 100 shares of a stock, you essentially control the same underlying exposure as 1 options contract, just without the Greeks. 1 options contract represents 100 shares of the underlying. So if a stock moves $1, the value of: • 1 contract (100 delta) ≈ $100 move • 100 shares = $100 move The big difference is with shares there is: • No theta decay (time decay) • No IV crush • No expiration date Your position simply moves dollar-for-dollar with the stock and you can hold it as long as you want. That’s why once traders build enough capital to buy 100 shares of strong companies, they realize they can still capture meaningful moves, without the Greeks constantly working against them.

@Charlygotyou Yes.

Stranger Things has me wondering.. in the 80s did most kids have this freedom to just run around at all hours of the day and night?

@elonmusk My wife and I just picked ours up today! Looks good parked out front

Cybertruck is awesome

@rich_toronto Yeah I mean if you’re an Israeli then what are you doing here? You’re not Canadian so go to Israel. You already stole the land and setup shop, it’s your God given right, right? So what are you waiting for?

Something I’ve thought about for a while. Should I pick up my family and leave Canada? When is the right time? When will it be too late? But I also have other thoughts… I know that one of the reasons we need Israel is so that we always have somewhere to go. So that never again we find ourselves being banned from entering a country as we flee from a regime focussed on the ethnic cleansing of Jews. So that we never again hear “one is too many”. And I’m grateful that we have Israel. But can Israel survive without Jews in the diaspora? If we all pick up and go to Israel, how much longer will Israel have allies? If politicians feel that none of their constituents care about Israel, will they stop supporting her? Will they divest? Will they stop providing aid to help Israel defend itself? I know we need Israel. Our people. Our religion. The continuity of Judaism. Our world needs the State of Israel. But I also believe the State of Israel needs us too. And if we were all there, I don’t know that Israel could survive. Curious what others think…

You’re given $2m. You have 20 minutes to spend it. You can’t spend it on cars, airplanes, yacht or a house. You can’t spend it on golds or diamonds either. What will you buy??

@mrmikeMTL Landline. You had to know peoples phone numbers and call them at their house.

People who were teenagers before social media existed, How did you communicate with your friends?

I never understand people who say they ‘stored their bitcoins on a drive’. Bitcoin lives on a distributed ledger. You have an address and a private key. That’s it. There’s nothing to ‘store’, you can write down the address and the private key on a piece of paper. The bitcoin can never be ‘lost’ or ‘thrown out’.

15 years ago I bought this weird thing called "Bitcoin" Loaded up and bought 2,000 of them for a few bucks each Stored them in a USB drive Totally forgot about it Years later, realized I had hundreds of millions of dollars sitting on that flash drive Went to go find it Rifled through our drunk drawers, dozens of boxes of old clothes, and our storage unit full of furniture, Christmas decorations, and toys (my kids are in their 30s now) Knew it couldn't have been thrown out My wife has saved every single possession we've ever owned, "just in case" After weeks of searching, my wife asked what I was looking for Told her what it looked like Tiny flash drive Silver with a black line on it "Oh yeah, I threw that out," she told me. "It was taking up way too much space in your office filing cabinet, and I needed some room for the 300 art pieces we saved from our kids' 2nd grade art class." I'm beginning to regret every choice I've ever made

@PeteHegseth Who was Iran going to attack first?

This is 100% correct.

@sentdefender They were going to Attack who? The United States?

Reporter: “Mr. President, did Israel force your hand to launch these strikes against Iran?” President Trump: “No. No, I might have forced their hand. You see, we were having negotiations with these lunatics, and it was my opinion that they were going to attack first. They were going to attack. If we didn't do it, they were going to attack first. I felt strongly about that. great negotiators, great people, people that do this very successfully and have done it all their lives very successfully. And based on the way the negotiation was going, I think they were going to attack first. And I didn't want that to happen. So, if anything, I might have forced Israel’s hand. But Israel was ready and we were ready. And we've had a very, very powerful impact because virtually everything they have has been knocked out now.”

@EricRStPierre in a heartbeat.

Question of the day: As a Canadian, if you were granted free citizenship to the USA, would you take it?

The reason I wouldn't hire a non-technical developer to build software is the same reason I wouldn't go to a random guy who read the MCAT textbooks who calls himself a doctor. I don't trust either of them. If you don't understand your work product, your work is worthless.

Everyone always talks about the national debt but never talks about the national balance sheet. What are the assets on the other side of the liability? Has anyone stopped to consider that we’re very likely in a net equity position?

AI won’t replace jobs at the depth or breadth people are imagining for the same reason why remote work is not the norm: workers have people managers and businesses have human customers. People managers don’t know what to do with AI agents the same way they didn’t know what to do with remote employees. Some sectors, old ones and new ones, will embrace the AI agentic economy, but it will move at human pace. Just like internet adoption.. just like every other technology. Nothing ‘replaces’ humans, humans are always in the loop because everything we are doing is for humans.
