  1. @adymitruk Isn't that just typekit.com?
  2. @ashleyrichards has line-of-sight to the FBI offices in Vancouver (for the Olympics). What sign to put up in the window to taunt them? ;-)
  3. US Speedskater Shani Davis: closet Canadian? http://ow.ly/IYwE
  4. @trevoro The director of engineering of Mint worked at PGP - I bugged him already, but perhaps reminder / Facebook group is in order?
  5. How is it I'm Foursquare mayor of more places in Silicon Valley than in Vancouver? Seems unpossible.
  6. Best error message ever: "This wave is experiencing some slight turbulence and may explode." Uh, what?
  7. @sherrett How can you not have a passport? You can't even go to the States anymore without one!
  8. Not sure I understand how SquareUp is a better designed payment experience than, say, PayPal mobile? Am I missing something?
  9. @dbarefoot Uh, aren't women already responsible for like 85% of all purchasing decisions (at least in families)?
  10. @AnthonyFloyd That's not your problem. You ordered in good faith, they have to honor providing the good or an acceptable alternative.
  11. Good god, I may have actually found a use case for Google Wave: group note-taking. Not quite as good as etherpad, but workable.
  12. @AnthonyFloyd Uh, isn't that illegal? You are required by law to honor an advertised price.
  13. Canadian government is just drafting anti-spam laws now? What is this, 2003?
  14. @kaler But, for example, can they make hard concepts easy to understand? Being understood by non-techies (i.e. customers) = biz skill.
  15. @kaler No, it's not. Marketing has logic, algorithms, approaches. If you can't explain them, you're like a dev who can't explain sorting...
  16. @bmann Interesting point, but I'd attribute that to the fact that tech people discount everything non-tech as "marketing", therefore 'easy'
  17. @camcavers There's nothing wrong with working on a startup for free. However, that's not what "technical co-founder" means...
  18. Is it me or does "technical co-founder" really mean "person to write my application for free" to most people in #yvr?
  19. As predicted, getting up at dark o'clock is proving painful. Red elf needs tea...badly.
  20. Yah: Off to visit the sunshine in California tomorrow. Boo: 6:30 am flight.
