Why Are Servo Motors So Expensive

Never. Give. Up.

* Correct quote is “politically left” not socialist. Point stands. Entrepreneurs take potential and turn it into value that’s added to the global GDP. They capture a small amount of that value in the process which is a big part of the incentive. The rest goes to others, employees, shareholders, government, suppliers etc. You can always criticize them. You can always criticize the redistribution efforts. But you should always remember that without them, there is very little new value enters society and that locks everyone in zero sum competition, sometimes war. Entrepreneurs are load bearing for human thriving. It’s a glorious act to put yourself out there and build a company that provides good and services to everyone. And Elon is the best entrepreneur that ever was. You don’t have to like him, and sure he’s crazy, but otherwise he wouldn’t do crazy things. Same coin, two sides.

You don’t have to love Elon Musk to recognize what this headline says about us. A country that spends more time criticizing wealth creation than encouraging it sends a clear message to builders: your success is tolerated, not celebrated. Canada should be the best place in the world to build ambitious companies. Headlines like this make us look like we’re not quite ready for that.

Today, @GetKoho announced $130M in new capital at a $1.33B valuation. We’re very happy to welcome Mubadala, Savano Capital, @tobi, CEO, Founder of Shopify, and Michael Linford, COO of Affirm, to the KOHO story. We’re also grateful for the continued support of Drive Capital, Portage Ventures, Eldridge, BDC Capital, and HOOPP. One of my favourite things about KOHO is that the only way we win is if millions of Canadians choose us. We cannot out-spend or out-market. We have to out-build. The progress we have made reflects the progress our users have made. So, while we feel very proud of what’s behind us, we’re much more humbled by what’s in front of us. With this capital, we’ve earned the right to keep building on our promise to users. That job remains monumental, and we’re very honoured that we get to do the work. I want to thank the team for their incredible work these past few years. The world doesn’t yet know how talented, smart and kind the KOHO Collective is - but they will. I want to thank our investors for their continued trust and support. We’re lucky to have partners who recognize and support the need to take the longer view here. More than anything, I want to thank our users. We’ve come a long way with much farther to go. We’ll keep earning your trust every damn day. Back to work 🔥

TD Economics reports that grads from highly ranked universities have the lowest retention rates in 🇨🇦, particularly in the first five years after graduation. Earlier this year, we hit the UofT campus to ask students: "Do you plan on staying in Canada after you graduate?"

An exceptional discussion between Tom Jenkins and John Stackhouse on Agentic AI, enterprise transformation, data sovereignty, and the urgent need for Canada to step up. Big shout out as well to Shannon Bell, who co-author the book entitled the Agentic AI Genome for Canada who will continue this important conversation at the @Empire_Club launch of COU’s AI Task Force Report on May 29. #AI #AgenticAI @MartinBasiri @StackhouseJohn @OpenText @OntUniv empireclubofcanada.com/event…

I got my wife some flowers, I gave one of the roses to our building security. He smiled and said he hasn’t gotten a flower for a very long time. He said I thought men only get flowers on their funeral! Damn it! The sentence he said is heavy!

A man rammed a truck into a synagogue that houses a children’s daycare. Kids were inside. Don’t spin this into politics. Don’t make it about foreign policy. It’s a daycare in a Jewish community center. That should horrify everyone.

In my opinion, if you're unsure about what to study, consider pursuing Electrical Engineering. You will learn complex subjects that enhance your ability to learn quickly. EE is enjoyable, and you'll also gain knowledge in system design. Additionally, I believe the next exciting wave of companies will be hardware and AI.

Dear @elonmusk, You are working on Direct‑to‑Cell service that connects normal smartphones directly to low‑Earth‑orbit satellites with no extra dish. Please consider activating this service, even as a test, over Iran’s airspace. It would help millions of Iranians under severe internet shutdowns and also help your project discover real‑world problems faster in one of the toughest environments. Iranians will remember who stood by them when their internet was taken away.

This is, I believe, the single greatest threat to Canada’s long-term prosperity and survival. Canadians over 65 now outnumber those under 20 — and the trend is only accelerating. theglobeandmail.com/life/art…

Congratulations everyone, @khamenei_ir, the Hitler of our time is dead!

It was great hosting Hon. Minister Diab today! We had such a great and honest conversation. @CitImmCanada @PassageHQ

Minister Diab's announced changes to Express Entry are a smart, targeted move to strengthen our talent pipeline in high-demand fields like STEM, health care and skilled trades. By prioritizing advanced skills and aligning immigration selection with labour market needs, we can boost productivity, accelerate innovation and reinforce Canada’s global competitiveness. These changes build on the federal government’s broader efforts to attract top global talent and fast-track study permits for advanced degree students. @CitImmCanada @MartinBasiri
