For the record, Zatlyn’s stake in Cloudflare, based on its market capitalization of $28 billion, amounts to over $1 billion. That’s ‘one’ with nine zeros after it. We’re in a binary digital world but that one and all those zeros mean so much more than code. However, she’s clearly not as interested in her bank balance as I am, although agrees to give the billion-dollar question further consideration… but not yet.
(PS – billionaires are a policy failure, even when they’re from my home province!) 😉
Watched “Juliet, Naked” this weekend with Shea (who thought the tale of an obnoxiously nitpicky music obsessive hit a bit too close to home for her!) 😉
Anyhow, this song played a pivotal part of the movie…
In hindsight, letting a 10-year old parkour addict jump off the snow-covered garage into a big pile of snow was probably not the wisest decision of my parenting career (and isn’t that usually the stuff you do when your parents aren’t watching anyhow?)
Donald Trump’s *second* impeachment began yesterday and this was one of the first videos shown summarizing the insurrection of January 6 (very telling it comes with a warning!)…
Serious question. If Tom Brady having won more Super Bowls than every franchise in the NFL history isn't the most amazing individual statistic in sports, what is?
There are a lot of factors to be considered – is it based on playoff success? Longevity? Total points? Gaps between all-time points production and next most successful athlete in the same sport? Success across different teams? Does it matter if its success in team sports vs. someone who excelled in an individual sport? What about the demands of the sport itself? Or the position someone plays within that sport? Do we take into account biases based on recency? Gender? Race?
Anyhow, I came across this guy as one suggestion of a strong (literally!) contender for the GOAT title and I’m not going to argue!
I know it’s not 2020 anymore but the most “2020” thing of 2021 (so far) is that it’s a pre-Super Bowl performance by Miley Cyrus and Billy Idol that feels like the first real, tangible proof I’ve seen in nearly a year that we might get back to “normal” once vaccinations are widespread.
Someone who saw this performance said they first cringed when they saw thousands of unmasked people in the audience which is, unfortunately, a very typically American scene.
But then they realised these were all vaccinated healthcare workers which made their fear and unease drop away completely and the scene just felt…normal.
(And who knew when I was rocking out to Billy Idol songs in grade seven in 1986 that seeing him perform in this particular circumstance would bring tears to my eyes in 2021???)
