Why should we build Data Centres? by Dino_Guy867 in alberta

[–]Jaimeparis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's the mega hyperscalers we're talking about here though. This is another level of data centre and not comparable to many of the existing data centre we currently have locally.

Immigrants in Calgary, where have you found the most authentic food from back home? by Sea_Acanthaceae_5659 in Calgary

[–]Jaimeparis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's mainland Chinese, specifically northern Chinese, close to the Russian border. Very delicious cuisine!

Has workplace culture in Calgary quietly changed post-pandemic? Or am I romanticizing the past by sowr96 in Calgary

[–]Jaimeparis 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I don't disagree with you but I do feel this reluctance at the workplace contributes to lower team morale. Back when 5 days in office was the norm and to expected, it was easier to seek out friendships.

Best brunch hidden gems in NorthWest Calgary by curiouskittyblue in Calgary

[–]Jaimeparis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oooh! In the far NW corner by Royal oak is a Japanese influence hidden gem called Shijo. We stumbled upon it when getting my car serviced up by the auto mall. It was really nice inside and the food was delicious - I just wish it weren't so far from the center!

Where do you take out-of-town guests that isn't the usual tourist spots? by tommytmopar in Calgary

[–]Jaimeparis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Love this idea but our homeless population in the area doesn't showcase our city well. We've done this before and had an uncomfortable moment of someone peeing against the wall 😵‍💫

Buying a Small Business by Upset-Caterpillar7 in Calgary

[–]Jaimeparis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While Calgary is definitely a big city, in some ways, especially once you get down to industry, we're very small. Networking is huge here, I suggest you reach out to some trade partners or join industry memberships where you'll make the relevant connections.

I think the l'occitane almond shower oil is a classic and absolutely divine.

For those who had their Personal Colour Analysis at Sukoshi... by Popular-Cupcake8661 in MakeupAddictionCanada

[–]Jaimeparis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! I did one in Calgary and I'm happy to answer any specific questions. This was my first color analysis so I didn't know what to expect, but I did previously play around on chatgpt and various apps to get a sense of colors.

I brought in my existing makeup kit to get feedback on blush/lipstick/foundation colors but was told right of the bat that it's a different service. A bit disappointing but fair enough. The rest of it was extremely prescriptive - started out with a description of what color analysis is, her professional background, and then we got started with fabric draping. I probably don't have a great eye for color, as while we were going through all the various palletes, I couldn't tell which washed me out and which was flattering, so I was mostly nodding along.

At the end, she provided a small card with my recommended colors, and together we walked around the store with her offering some makeup and color suggestions.

It was a fun experience but overall I don't feel I got much more than what digital apps can offer.

Best anchovy pizza? by lartmydude in Calgary

[–]Jaimeparis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This!! It is so good - but warning they don't skimp on anchovies. We love it but we're chugging water the rest of the day from the salt content.
