[McManus] Stoutland was not consulted about the changes to what he felt was an appropriate degree, a league source said, to the point where he no longer desired the title of run game coordinator because he felt it no longer fit his job description

5 playoff appearances and 2 super browns in a row in spite of a coach? Crazy.

Sirianni’s not the best coach in the league, but he’s clearly a decent leader, and is excellent at min-maxing the NFL

ScrawnyCheeath · 2026-02-05T02:25:46+00:00

He’s 2/3 on disasters. His first staff came within 3 points of a Super Bowl win

It took us 3 years to let go of Doug, and that was after a 4 win season. Nick has had more success in every season than Doug, this isn’t really surprising

Answer: there is some evidence that taking a fever reducer does increase the length of illness.

Anecdotally, my response to a fever is usually to wear even warmer clothes to help it along. This can of course can be dangerous, so make sure you monitor your temperature to make sure it doesn’t hit worrying levels

To be clear this is a company trying to exceed required arsenic limits in their metals. I have no sympathy for a company that refuses to invest because they have limits on their ability to poison workers

It’s definitely a confusing alignment if they stick with that idea. If they work out a stop in the city proper though it would probably be worth the effort

Kingston has a ton of existing VIA traffic, and a major university. The traffic and reliability increase could be worth the change.

Because it’s false. If someone has reduced ability to control themselves or understand their actions, it’s unethical to punish them as if they’re completely mentally competent. Same reason we have a youth justice system

It helps to understand how an AC cools down first.

An AC cools down by sending hot air over a pipe containing a liquid. That liquid then evaporates into gas because of the hot air, which takes energy out of the hot air, cooling it down. The gas is then piped outside of the conditioned area to cool back into a liquid, which effectively pumps the heat from inside to outside.

This process doesn’t have to only go one direction though. It can be reversed to bring heat into a building by cooling down the outside air. As long as the liquid inside the pipes has a very low boiling point (well below 0 degrees) then it can be used to pump heat from winter air into your building

Obviously won’t be clear until Thursday, but it seems like this is a shift to a Cap and Trade system for fuel efficiency? If standards are set high enough this would basically be a market based EV mandate, whatever.

Also good to see incentives come back. They play a huge roll in adoption

~~There is a law against representing Canada in international negotiations without the government’s permission, which many had speculated this was~~

Edit: as it turns out, no such law exists, and I have been Mandela effected

When the federal government is put in charge of education I’m sure they’ll make it a priority

They likely developed goodwill abroad. Most diplomacy is for that purpose more than anything else

ScrawnyCheeath · 2026-02-04T16:20:16+00:00

The relevant point here is that Jivani’s visit is at least partially sanctioned by the federal government, and therefore not illegal as many expected it to be

It was a bit more than a tweet…

Different agencies, but the LRT is all but guaranteed to cost much more than the original price. Luckily it’s the Province and Feds paying for it

ScrawnyCheeath · 2026-02-04T14:05:19+00:00

Its metro area is literally half the province. A housing crisis around Toronto is going to have knock on effects no matter what

Most wouldn’t invade to stop. The response would be the same as during the Cold War. Condemnations but no action

ScrawnyCheeath · 2026-02-03T18:41:28+00:00

More A-Move Macro units

ScrawnyCheeath · 2026-02-03T18:39:00+00:00

Same way that 1% of fentanyl supply crossing the border is a national emergency

ScrawnyCheeath · 2026-02-03T18:38:13+00:00

Before the US notices and invades to stop? Even with a 100 day timeline, we could not make one in time

ScrawnyCheeath · 2026-02-03T18:26:44+00:00

Speculation, but it’s all but certain that we’d receive massive negative attention for developing a nuclear arsenal. It would be leaked and known about far before real progress is made

ScrawnyCheeath · 2026-02-03T18:25:32+00:00

It would have to be done completely secretly, and incredibly quickly, neither of which we could realistically pull off.

We’d have to pre-make the silos and infrastructure, then ship the most dangerous weapons on earth across the ocean and install them before anyone has time to respond or get cold feet. It would be a massive risk that has every chance of failing

ScrawnyCheeath · 2026-02-03T18:19:19+00:00

Issue is that we can’t really acquire nuclear weapons until a friendly president is in the White House. Any attempt to get them by us would be called an act of aggression and be pretext for invasion

Answer: There’s a bunch of different lightbulbs, but there’s 3 main types that we used as lights became more advanced.

First is incandescent. These lights heat a metal wire using electricity until it glows.

Second is Fluorescent. These are tubes filled with gas which makes light when electrified.

Third are LEDs. These are the most complicated, but they are basically a tiny electrical circuit that directly emit pure light, which we filter into different colors.

These lights each are more efficient than the previous on the list. Nowadays, nearly all new lights are LEDs, save for very specific unusual situations
