I can't imagine an interview situation where the interviewee asks 'What are your strengths?' without being immediately dismissed.

As an aside, Jon Ronson's podcast 'The Butterfly Effect' presents the same issue with porn videos; before streaming sites and SEO producers were free to name their videos as they wished but now they need to name them so they

Your argument is absurd, the first sentence gives it away 'empty properties'. Vancouver has no empty properties.

So people who simply want to live in a city near to where they work and their children go to school have to be subject to market corrections where a single massively financed pseudo-hotel can massively distort a major cost of living assignm

We disagree on the definition of dweller, cities require more than just vacation seekers to function. And the longer term renters aren't taking up those dwelling since it's more profitable for owners to rent out short term, but th

Great question, I'm also Canadian but have European citizenship, maybe I'll be able to use this to get information from my municipal government that I can't get as a Canadian.

Yes I totally agree with you, I'd love it if the metro was far more expansive than it currently is in Montreal. For me the solution is to expand the metro system to the west island, south shore, etc but forget about burying it and just

That's true. Montreal just upgraded their rolling stock: (The MR-73 didn't owe them anything https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MR-73 ) but the new cars ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPM-10 )

I've had to deal with this at work (anticipatory only so far), but what I can't seem to figure out is what the inquiring European needs to provide to us to prove that the data we have is actually theirs. We don't capture pii

The trains should only run on tracks that are completely enclosed (More control on the environment will realize better reliability, and as an aside nicer living space. Raised tracks are ugly.), Also they should run on rubber wheels like the

I think that's over thinking it a bit, youtube algos are easy to manipulate and a single thread on 4chan can create a fair bit of weird media, for the explicit intent of creating weird media.

Hmm, my nephew already saw pepa pig having her teeth extracted on YouTube kids so I'm gonna say this is too little too late.

It's been a while since I worked with anything air travel related but why do all the flight search engine UIs operate very similarly? Is it just because it's the best way to do it or are these booking engines still tied to the GDS

No, it didn't. But you took the chance the individual at that location was supremely interested in certain types of photos, whereas now if a '10x' developer was given access to a large amount of data they could zone in on wha

Hi, even if a data breach hadn't happened, did you have any concerns about people within the company having access to those photos? I also use myfitnesspal and strava but I have a strong aversion to sharing that kind of info with anyon

Exactly. I'd love to use one of these in the kitchen to set timers and ask ingredient amounts -- so long as it was local only.

Admittedly I haven't tried those bikes but I imagine 90USD buys you a 90USD bike and the quality that goes with it. Boris/Citi/Bixi bikes cost considerably more but are incredibly robust.

This is cool and in the same vein I've found that a lot of Canadian gov't dept/figures have very literal translations of their tweets making them a nice, bite-sized snippet to translate, then check with the other tweet.

I'm not sure why you linked to this, but it like most to-do apps is far too simple. If I have a to-do to load my laundry, why can't it trigger a timer to remind me in 30 minutes to switch to the dryer, and then once that's ma
