Being on the list makes it a bit more convenient when you go to vote. Since you're on the list, you only need one other piece of photo ID if I recall correctly. If you're not on the list, the process is a bit longer, requires fill

Being on the electors list is optional, is something you can opt-in to (and opt-out of), and is not required in order to vote in Alberta. There are many reasons an individual may choose to not be on the list (eg. domestic abuse situations).

Based on my (limited) understanding of RTRI, they have very specific items they fund and pretty low overall impact to the trade balance ($1M per org and $1B over 3 years program total across all industries). From [1]: ---------- Productivit

You keep attacking the layout and formatting of the article, and not the substance. Maybe this article works better for you, and if not, I'm sure you're just as capable at using Google as I am. There are many other high-quality st

That page has existed in one form or another for quite some time. I don't believe there's any AI slop in the substance of the content or arguments, and the rationale is presented in a balanced way. In fact, the section "Are y

I'm not here to debate the scientific evidence; labelling well-researched peer-reviewed studies as "paranoia" (your words, before editing your reply) because you don't like the outcome is absolutely your choice, and tell

Not in a way meaningful to assessing infectious risk, no. I consider outdoor air to be unshared, except in cases of large dense crowds (such as say outdoor festivals or sporting events). I consider risky shared air to be indoor air with one

Not sure why you'd ask me that vs. use Google, feels like cornering a random driver to defend "Why do you use seatbelts?". But I'll offer one reply at your word that it's genuine and not passive-aggressive. 1. I am

As someone who continues to mask in public shared-air settings for my own health, I am entirely unsurprised by that response and get it all the time. Recently heard from a friend that also continues to mask when sharing air, they had arrang

Now up to at least 11 known aquatic competitors [1]. And most teams aren't testing — for example, Australia brought their own PCR machine; nothing has been provided by the Olympic organizers. [1]: https://swimswam.com/s

Sidestepping nomenclature bikeshedding, healthcare organizations are seeing an increase in patient load which seems like a reasonably tactical datapoint that there's a meaningful increase over the last couple months. Google is your fri

Covid is a highly contagious virus that spreads and lingers in the air, and we have athletes in close quarters without any virus control procedures [1] (other than the Olympic organizers providing hand sanitizer [2], which is an odd choice

In addition to physical issues raised (7ft depth, configuration of sides), I wonder if there might be any other reasons that aren't mentioned at all in the article… Something causing these elite athletes to be a bit off their game? Wha

Then you haven't been talking to the right ad sales teams. Google and Facebook have entire product options built around this specific concept. You can run a "ghost ads" test on Google for as little as $20k in ad spend; it&#x2

Advertisers have many tools to measure "ghost ads" aka "people who haven't seen an ad but would otherwise have qualified for all your target criteria". See https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf

What makes you believe this to be true? You define an audience. You split it. You test and measure the result. What component of that strategy doesn't work for new visitors? Many eyeball vendors (Google, Facebook, heck traditional TV a

Truthfully, the only reason I had the numbers at hand was because I'd personally fallen for your "Lesson #1" before. I spent my 20s far below median (which I knew), and my 30s far above median (which I didn't realize, at

You might have a skewed sense of what median Canadian income is. And your job might be further above that median than you realize. Median Canadian individual income is ~$35,000 [0]. In B.C., your average 2019 tax rate would be 13.34% not in
