The kerning is better in my opinion. That f is nice.

No thanks. I would prefer more grocery options not less

I’m not a fan of this idea. How about:

taxing ogilopolies on revenue instead of income? Building infrastructure to help Canadian companies bring their products to market?

Yeah, I never understood this. Targeting legal firearms just annoys people.

I have a theory, that canada has been pressuring the US on gun control (the actual problem), and the whole ‘fentanyl crossing the border’ thing is projection

I read a lot of the report, but not all. I think technology is a factor in decline. Small amount of access is beneficial, but deteriorates as usage goes up. I’ve seen similar data in Canada’s testing/surveys

I’ve never seen an LLM response be cavalier with credentials.

Threats to other countries isn’t noise… It doesn’t seem appropriate to hand wave away threats to other people.

That is not several times Canada’s GDP. Maybe you meant many many times Canada’s annual military expenditure.

Regardless 1.7 trillion Is a lot of money

Yes, but items are targeted to inflict the least amount of pain. We don’t neeed orange juice or bourbon for example.

Before having a debate on forced treatment, we should be maximizing volunteer treatment.

Are there treatment spaces available the moment an addict wants help?

Is there awareness amongst addicts on where to get help?

Ah, I deleted because I wasn’t familiar with the community. I just said OVH looked nice, and that a lot AWS features are just things you can do yourself but pricier.

I was looking at OVH a couple of weeks ago.

If I was a provider outside the big 3, I may consider a strategy that focused on great documenation/guides/templates to enable users to spool up common services with just the hardware service on my platform.

This person was charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking fentynal and meth. These are awful drugs and they are putting lives at serious risk. Plus digging tunnels in parks is… just too much.

The conditions you describe do sound awful.

I think defending a drug dealer digging tunnels in parks probably causes harm to the support of homeless. It’s just too much.

Unless I’m misunderstanding and the wrong article was linked?

That is interesting. I wonder what the 25-29 cohort would look like (thinking of the flat growth top left).

In general should a gap be expected given the wider opportunity for men in trades?

Lower population in of itself is a good thing.

It’s the change that is disruptive and will cause suffering in ways that are unique to the suffering caused by over population.

As population growth slows, the younger generation needs to support more elderly. Which means we need some combination of:

Working population being more productive. Population making do with less.

However you approach it, there will be segments of the population that are very unhappy.

I did a quick search and couldn’t find an answer.

I wonder if part of the disconnect is that they are using just a general “dwelling” in CPI. As opposed to price per square foot. That is, is dwelling size shrinking, while costs are growing, this could cause housing costs to be understated in CPI

The library is appealing to me because:

Precedence: pre internet I could connect to the library over a landlines and access the library and community news.

Expertise: not necessarily deep tech expertise, but with information retrieval, curation, education.

Community access: libraries are a municipal service with brick and mortar locations, and are heavily involved with community/public engagement.

For clarity, on the fediverse instance aspect. I was thinking more read only, with users being more official organizations with a barrier of entry vs. The general public. I personally wouldn’t want libraries to be moderating public discourse - this should be arms reach. And wouldn’t want them worrying about liability.

Public information (like safety bulletins for example) shouldn’t exclusively be sitting on a for profit ad platform, it’s bizarre.

Libraries should evolve to play a larger role in the internet, theyve been trying to reinvent themselves and i think this best aligns with their spiritual purpose. Some ideas:

Caretakers of digital archives.

Caretakers of relevant open source projects.

Could I get a free domain with my library card?

Could I get free api access to mapping or other localized data?

Should libraries host local fediverse instances for civic users? (think police, firefighter alert, other community related feeds)
