Hallucinating AI tech support chat bots are a layer of hell I didn't anticipate dealing with in 2026.

I’m pleased to be speaking at the Childcare Operators Summit (COS) 2026, taking place March 14–15.

It's been a while since I've done a little public speaking, and I'm chatting with childcare operators on some practical tips on the basics of working with your local politician and policy makers.

It's official: I'm at 350 hours.

That's 2+ weeks.

I am a non-smoker.

I wished a happy #Holi to a neighbour in the elevator tonight. Clearly, he was celebrating (suit and all) and he was about to head to a gathering of his community.

I think it made his night (so much so he almost missed his floor). The look of joy on his face was pretty awesome.

Happy #Holi2026!

You can tell when an emerging social media platform is becoming established as the number of screenshots from other, older platforms decreases.

A lucky guess! Anyways, probably worth someone checking in on the Wordle team. A lot of their word choices recently... have been negative ones.

@gianmarcosoresi.bsky.social β€” just saw your latest clipping.

I recommend Rob Reiner's filmography! I feel you'll really enjoy the First Wives Club and The Princess Bride. #Mawwiage

Note to self: 14 cups of coffee is no longer possible to consume in a day, in light of coffee being more potent in the absence of nicotine.

Snow can be made, and, well, imagine what the *billions* of dollars from Edmonton (taxpayers of Alberta) and Ottawa (citizens from coast to coast) could build, if placed and focused on infrastructure in Calgary?

Alas, it was a lost opportunity. :(

Yeah, it's hard for me to get excited about the Olympics this year.

... particularly since the games should have been held in Calgary.

A world with writing, but no writers, is a sad one.
