Nice! I like this answer. If I was someone who worked on the go more often I could probably see the appeal. https://www.clicks.tech/ca/powerkeyboard That's a very neat product.

Animal Farm is interesting partially because its satire is actually extremely poignant and directed; the characters are meant to represent the important actors in the Russian Revolution. Old Major is Marx/Lenin, Napoleon is Stalin Snow

You can say cisgender on X, I'm not sure who told you that you can't. There are, quite literally, thousands of people doing so every day. https://x.com/search?q=cisgender&src=typed_query&f=live This is a p

Eh, it's a lot less restrictive than Bluesky with its block lists maintained by weirdos. What are some things you aren't allowed to say on Twitter? I see people talk all the time about how great Bluesky is, yet I never see any gre

I would imagine they're referring to cultural and behavioral homogeneity, not necessarily national or distinctly ethnic homogeneity.

I've been twice and I really enjoyed myself. Tech, finance, and political people definitely don't make up close to the majority. You'd get sort of laughed at if you tried networking earnestly about like tech stocks or LLMs. G

Oh I certainly don’t think it’s representative to that of the masses, I was sharing an anecdote. I think either way both of us are in really good shape. In my experience the quality of American care is better in nearly every regard (having

That sounds really convenient! Is it a new building? I know the odd American or Canadian build will have that, but only the newer and more expensive ones.

What are the Canadian labor laws you're referencing? To my knowledge, the only province which still has the "liquor server" minimum wage is Quebec - everywhere else gets the same minimum wage as other workers. To be clear, a

I pay $40/mo for 500mbps in my Bushwick apartment - is that considered expensive?

Bit for bit, internet access is cheaper in America than it is in Canada or Australia. Canadians like myself have ~40% of our provincial taxes spent on healthcare, so in my case about ~8% of my gross income. Somewhere in the tune of $20k&#x2

Marriages where the couple had children together are considerably less likely to end than marriages without children. A recent Canadian poll showed an effect size of ~60%. [1] Table 1 covers this nicely. I’d be curious what data you’re citi

I grew up in a large family of 5 kids and I think it’d be very ignorant to suggest that experience is at all comparable to having children of my own. I promise you that you do not know what having children is like and that the mystery remai

I had a good laugh at this - thanks for posting. The phrase "to craunch the marmoset" has been stuck in my head all morning. The etymology is entirely bizarre and hilarious. [1] Like a Vonnegut gag. [1] https://sesquiot

I answered something similar above, but I'll paste it here too: This was for a largish (40,000L) above-ground pool with no hookup to my home's plumbing system. The water was all pumped in from a water truck. The previous system wa

Yeah, absolutely. The YouTube guides have all been very helpful, a lot of them are done by actual paid professionals promoting their pool brand. The fellow who'd done it originally is my neighbor and he's a retired teacher. There&
