@AnitaAnandMP Thank you for your service. Your community is proud of your accomplishments. Best of luck in your return to academia.

Please see my statement.

@Copeland309 I had to check and was relieved to know that genAI is still really fast at learning and correcting errors. Agree that you should always verify output for truth, but the speed of evolution is remarkable.

We loved @sboots' keynote this year so much, we’ve decided to make it available to everyone immediately. What Sean said was so important and so often quoted by others throughout the conference that we didn’t want to limit who could see it! youtube.com/watch?v=CaaWyb…

@Numismike Thanks @Numismike! Grateful for all you did to set us up for success and steer us around obstacles. 🏘️

@sprintmarathon Way to go @sprintmarathon and team ~ terrific and hard work went into this, you should be very proud ✌️

I'm part of a team working to help streamline the planning and development approvals system in Ontario. Improving system efficiency and functioning will remove some of the barriers to getting more homes built faster. On National Housing Day we share our first draft standard!

@torontolife Couple of follow-up questions to ask the execs: 1) What's the answer for people going back to offices that don't occupy the top tier of available space? 2) Everyone politely ignores the cost of attending the office. How much more does it cost workers to come to the office?

@RobButler Great admin and tech support people who can answer Qs. A good Org handbook with current info. A buddy. A list of people to have coffee chats with. A list of Slack channels to support my interests and work files. Hassle-free payroll and benefits. Regular manager 1:1s.

Onboarding to a new team? Or have you just done it? What would the top things you need or wish you had had to have been successfully on-boarded in this hybrid environment?

@sabrinaahmad_ Did this last year and would highly recommend. Takes all the pressure off of hosting and you get a top quality meal. chefdrop.ca/meal-kits-shop…

@Laura_Susann_NH Hi friend! Great to hear from you. There was plenty of woodshed time. My son and I are building a treehouse for his young cousins. Next vacation is to your timezone for wedding in Ireland.

Nice to come back from vacation to a love bomb from my colleagues. ❤️

@aniasroka Hi @aniasroka. Nice to see your name pop up on my feed :) Hope you're well at MHSTCI.

@sprintmarathon Well deserved 👍🏽

@spncrd @photojennylee True facts. I just can't abide a loose faucet.

@photojennylee @sprintmarathon Last time I was in the office, Jess was literally under the sink fixing something. So I did what any supportive colleague would: reported him to the workplace health and safety committee.

As a designer, I don't start with 'Why?' but with 'What?'. Usually followed closely with 'the fuck?'

@Code4Luke Makes me fondly remember find/replace name changes on an entire static site.

We're going through a ministry acronym change right now, and it's really showing why we should ditch design-heavy decks and PDFs in government in favour of simple, static HTML. The effort to "find and replace" is immense.

@PartnershipAI @DaliaMHashim You're going to be amazing in this new role @DaliaMHashim! Congrats 👏👏👏
