It’s a shell game. A less informed population won’t notice that the political dynasties continue to live luxurious pompous lives off everyone’s backs, and the informed will be too busy in an unfair competition over scraps. Unless there is a

How come you construe more housing as being a government responsibility? That is strange, especially when your government is causing these issues in the first place. Housing supply normally gets built to satisfy demand. If the regulations a

That’s a lot of people. Where are all those people going to be housed? Where will the resources for their education and gainful employment come from? Is the Canadian job market exploding with a huge amount of well paying jobs such that Cana

Labor shortage is such a lie. when they say that they just mean there aren’t enough low-information workers who will work for meager wages in a high taxation environment in a race to the bottom while some political dynasties always skim fro

A culture around frequent calls is toxic. It reeks of insecurity from some people who are afraid of paper trails.

Time to cancel my subscription to Microsoft’s online products. Never buying another Windows machine again. Apple or Linux only from here in out. Apple’s software and/or LibreOffice are more than enough.

This is why stupidity like Scrum should be abolished in every software shop worldwide. It just wastes time. It is just busy work and busy meetings for nothing and it is one of the most time consuming aspects of a dev job.

People are upset that they can't profit off your labor without a license? Those don't sound like open source purists to me. They sound like straight up thieves lol.

That's true but what's more simple? Implementing UBI or banning this practice? Right now the latter is more simple and feasible. The former takes more time and investigation into how to do it properly so it scales forever.

If having someone's likeness requires, by Federal law, consent in the form of a licensing agreement where the person receives compensation then that's more okay. I would still prefer a full ban on this. Maybe it'd be okay if

Do you feel the same knowing that a company can steal your thought patterns, keystrokes, likeness in manner of speech and thought and appearance, and build an AI that codes about as good as you or will one day, without giving you a dime or

This affects everyone. It represents your boss making demands of your likeness for ownership. Some of us already had to politely decline to sign away our likeness and alterations to it for no compensation in return. It's clear what the
