'I’m a bad programmer" then later lists extra curriculars that dwarfs my skills
I don’t think the issue is him; it’s the economy. Companies are probably not really looking to increase their workforce but still conducting interviews just in case they find a “Rockstar”
It is a social issue. People being incapable of taking care of themselves is inevitable. All civilizations had these issues. Families, churches and general generosity of neighbors have always been used to mitigate this.
Now with the wealth gap increasing and the individualistic philosophy in our society with not noticing and tending to these early on. We only notice once the person is a full blown junkie. Many needed help for a a short moment in life and could of become autonomous after, many are both permanently incapable of autonomy. Either way society have to deal with them. We have enough resources! For the price of just one of those opulent pick up we could probably shelter one person for 2-5 years.
I can edit my street as a dead end to lower bar traffic, cool!
Fuck cars
If you go into the detailed explanation (and can read French) they do have some hydraulic pumping included in their “batteries” section.
In their 100% renewables scénario on a peak consumption (105gw) hour and peak energy production (sun at zenith) they would store the excess production like such:
Also even in their most nuclear scenario (50% nuclear, 50% renewables) they still include 7.2gw of water pumping.
I’m curious of why you put so much value in water pumping? As a Quebecois I have a small notion of how disruptive (flooding of vast areas of land, massive amounts of concrete, dead rivers downstream of the dam ) water reservoirs for hydroelectricity can be and I have a hard time imagining a viable way of relying extensively on that technique.
It’s pay walled but how would China enforce that ruling? Ban all of Intel’s transactions with Chinese entity? Fines?
Here in Montreal we have a very popular car sharing company that allows many of us to not own cars.
It’s biggest issue at the moment is that the company can’t buy cars as quickly as demand increases. This type of cars would be a great addition to their park since a lot of the trips their customer do are short inner city trips.
Looks like it fits on the filter
They article mention it’s more about discouraging teens from starting smoking than making current smokers quit.
It kind of make sense since you start smoking by receiving a single cigarette not by buying a pack. I know at my high school a lot of smokers started smoking by buying individual smoke from the smoke pusher
It’s ok we’ll just use more fentanyl
Apparently, from articles I read about the Canadian law, Australia tried something similar but fang got it reversed.
The problem is that Canada is a small market. FANG doesn’t need the revenue from it but they would hate for these laws to become popular so they’ll try to make an example out of Canada.
Canada just passed legislation forcing Google and face book to pays for each showing (or redirecting?) of a Canadian news url. The law aims at redistributing money from internet giants back to news sites. Google and Facebook are threatening to just outright stop including Canadian news URL.
It’s a bold move from the government, I’m not for how I feel about it.
What’s the name of that safer alternative?
A more useful guideline would be something like: how to steer a conversation to be constructive for both parties.
I couldn’t get chatgpt to make this into a spectrum like in the pyramid but if you invert the order of the negative impact section and concatenate it after the positive liste you get the text for that pyramid. It does make sense though
Positive Impact:
Negative Impact:
There’s also the more potent: “you are right”. Although it has many draw backs
If you don’t disrupt anyone your protest has the same impact as an angry letter.
In Canada the only protests that accomplish anything are when a group blocks a road or a railroad until a very specific request is met. What typically happens is they get removed by police but I’m the background they get concessions so they don’t block another road in next months
Stop transfering people from sales to engineering!
