Amar has been the quiet GOAT of the Toronto ecosystem for many years! Lucky to be able to call @avarma for his advice - he always picks up, cares and dispenses wisdom generously. Thank you for your friendship @avarma and for all you do.
For years, @avarma has been one of the most important people in Toronto tech without many outside the ecosystem fully understanding why. He helped build Xtreme Labs. Autonomic sold to Ford. Xtreme’s story even brushes up against Tinder. He has been described as “sort of the king of Toronto.” Others put it more bluntly: “What people don’t realize is that he was carrying Toronto and KW tech on his back.” Now, with Mantle, he is building again.

This is exactly what I wrote about. Jews are being targeted simply because they are Jewish. Not politics. Not policy. Just identity. If that doesn’t alarm you, you’re not paying attention. Or you’re choosing not to. nationalpost.com/opinion/can…
The synagogue I attended as a boy and youth, where I was bar mitzvah'd and received my primary Jewish education, now under gunfire in once-peaceable North York, Ontario.

Introducing Oz: the platform to orchestrate agents in the cloud. Spin up hundreds of agents from your terminal, browser, the API, or your phone. Each agent gets a @docker environment to build, test, and write PRs. Come back from your lunch break to code that’s ready to merge.

Spending time at Canadian Tech @ Scale event today. Lots of talk about "AI First" mindsets, Adopting AI Tooling, yet AI in "prod" is relegated to chatbots and back-end processing..

Will Kate Soule and my talk #IBMTechXchange be the only session on AI? I think not - but I hope it would be one of the most practical. Come join us tomorrow reg.tools.ibm.com/flow/ibm/t…

At KotlinConf, @springrod showed how Kotlin and Spring can power real agentic systems: type-safe tool calls, MCP integration via Docker, and tools exposed directly from domain objects. 📺 Watch the full talk: youtube.com/watch?v=NcAW-FZt…
