One of the best parts of working at @Shopify are the people and how awesomely creative they are. Sometimes that’s code, and sometimes it’s epic music + music videos from @Capcity

BFCM Live on the @SphereVegas And I mean truly live! It turns out that the Sphere can be powered by the Unreal Engine, so of course we had to go there. Place an order from your phone, see it arc in front of you!

Steve Carell did not know that the cast would sing '9,986,000 Minutes', as it was kept a secret from him. His reaction to the song is real and not scripted.

Peter is such a key part of Shopify. Understanding his success is understanding Shopify. Shopify is full of Peters. Antifragile folks who look at their supposed disadvantages and say "fuck that, this is a super power". Peter stutters. He leads Shopify's comms team. Perfectly.
Today I did my 200th school talk. And on #bellletstalk day no less. Growing up with a stutter sucked. But now it’s a tool to connect with people. They really are drawn in when your put yourself out there. Be proud of who you are, & go for it. You never know where it will take you

The most important story of every business is the one about _why_ it exists. Pulling this story out of a business is hard to do well. I challenged our team to try anyway and I love what they came back with. *This* is why Shopify exists.

Where is Scott Street Connector (SSC) Trail?  As Tunney's Pasture redevelops, we hope that planners, politicians and high priced talents realize that green space has value and that we need a 4-season green corridor down to the river.  In the meantime, you have this in winter. – at Ottawa, Ontario

This is about as thoughtful, passionate and articulate of a column as I’ve ever read from a hockey fan. Really good piece from @hockey_brunch on being a Senators fan in the Melnyk era. I encourage every Ottawa fan and media member to read this one.
