Riverside Southbound was closed at the hospital link turnoff. Just a small taste of Ottawa drivers. Detoured around through Alta Vista. On Alta Vista and ambulance with full sirens and lights, I pull over of course.

In terms of what’s understood to be socially acceptable behavior, normalizing the filming/taking pictures of people in public who are minding their own business (and putting it online) is one of the worst developments of the past 15 years.

I had a meeting earlier this week stuck in my craw. The client is talking about all the things they need to do to improve their online processes for AI. After 20 minutes of talking I asked, "What about customers?" You're building websites with AI for Google's AI - where are your customers in this?

Apple's Tahoe is absolute dog shit. The new UI isn't my thing, but the pervasive and persistent memory leaks are atrocious. It's like using a Windows in the early 2000's. I very much regret the update.

I’ve sometimes fallen into the trap of thinking that complementing a creative person for their work is less sophisticated or desired than discussion or debate about it but very often the best thing you can say to them is hell yeah and that doesn’t make you dumb it just makes you nice

There's enough inaccurate or concerning information in the way in which @en.ottawa.ca is communicating about the 2026 Budget that I felt it should be addressed. And it's the concept of $252M in "savings" that I want to talk about, because this information is being used falsely. 1/
#OttBudget 2026 invests in the services we rely on every day. Through service reviews and continuous improvement, we have realized more than $252 million in savings during this Term of Council.
One example of a service improvement is the redesigned Open Ottawa platform.
