I read Sapiens by Yuval Harari this year. It was long and fascinating, incredibly well researched, and easy enough for "light reading" that I had time for between writing research papers. A couple things that stuck with me were st

So what, continue wasting student's time teaching them addition and subtraction over and over again? Why not just let students advance when they grasp the subject, instead of withholding knowledge from them for the sake of slower peers

Meanwhile I’ve got relatives evacuated from Merritt, classmates who won’t be able to attend class for a week, and almost everyone I know lost power over the weekend. Facebook is full of people asking for fans and pumps to dry out their base

Yeah, me too. There are lots of great shows I had to stop watching because of this. Breaking Bad, Dexter. I mean, I guess they did okay on those shows without my contribution, but I feel like they could have been just as powerful without as

That's one section of like ten equally important road links that are in equally bad shape. That one could be fixed fast, sure, if it was the ONLY problem we were dealing with right now.

Also Cowichan (cut off by road and also on an island) and the Gulf Islands (many without power, probably for a long time).

Almost everyone in Vancouver, Vancouver Island, all over BC really, has flooded basements and other stuff to deal with. My school closed down due to power outages, for example. The road to the local landfill has washed out. Half of my class

I've been learning in my law course about how laws are built from precedent and often need to be based on real things that have happened, rather than in anticipation of something bad maybe happening in the future. So when it comes to f

I don't get it - the battery isn't glued in, and you can remove it without damaging other parts. Isn't that pretty good?

You can meet people at improv club, hockey or mountain biking instead, but you still have to meet people somehow, right?

On Vancouver island where the Komoks people lived, there certainly was a distinct language and culture and possibly laws for probably half a dozen or more groups. On the island alone, I (a white person), know of the Songhees, Lekwungen, Tsa

Gosh, where are you getting these $25 tuneups? Shops in my town are charging $150 for a spring tuneup, and booking a season in advance.

The old ujms have hipster cred and they aren't made anymore, so the price has gone up due to scarcity. Try a cbr 150 from like 2011. You can get those for like $1000 now.

The only price I watch is 2x6x10 cedar. They were up to $51 back in April, now they're back down to $33. Still seems high but good enough for me to get back to my projects.

Canadian a&w is a totally different beast from the American franchise, related in name only, and my favorite fast food by a long way.

I don’t even have 144 items in my kitchen, I don’t think, so that’s probably a lot of dishwashing. It could happen if you lane the water running the entire time. I’m horrified to think that some people do that.
