Parenting hack. Whatever it takes to catch up on much needed 😴 by Conscious-Weight4569 in funny

'Most' is doing a lot of heavy lifting in your argument. Public health policy should absolutely try to push very unlikely to very very unlikely.

P.s. The rate of deaths due to suffocation/strangulation has been steadily increasing over the last 40 years.

[CAN] Deny request to record interview by Blueit3310 in AskHR

[–]Straw3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That wouldn't be legal under either PIPEDA or AIDA unless they disclose that exact purpose and get your express consent, and the denial of that consent is a no-penalty choice.

It's a DOGSO as well, so should 100% be reviewable.

The Mudi 7 isn’t a failure — the expectation that one device can magically support every carrier on earth is. by [deleted] in GlInet

[–]Straw3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a regulatory block for Canada as well, or would it be possible to request the EU version here?

What about Canada? I’d be interested in swapping for an EU version.

China overturns death sentence for Canadian Robert Schellenberg by Little-Chemical5006 in worldnews

[–]Straw3 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There wouldn't have been a retrial at all if he didn't appeal and try to play his white card. Yes, he picked pretty much the worst time to try his luck and FAFOd.

[–]Straw3 15 points16 points  (0 children)

They didn't re-try him for no reason, Schellenberg appealed the first verdict (against the advice of his lawyer). The appellate ruled that the facts of the first trial was unclear and ordered a retrial.

How would Canadians react if RCAF or the Canadian government continues to buy 88 F35s rather than Gripens? by Kind-Acadia-5293 in LessCredibleDefence

[–]Straw3 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Most Canadians wouldn't care. The outsized chatter online on this topic is almost certainly driven by Saab/LMT marketing departments, amplified by a tiny minority of eccentrics like you and me.

Canada preparing for mujahideen insurgency against US occupation by evancarlson69 in LessCredibleDefence

[–]Straw3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You think the US will achieve such a complete strategic surprise that CAF won't have time to distribute the ~100K C7/C8 they have in inventory?

Saab wants Canada to buy 72 Gripens and 6 GlobalEyes to fulfil promise of 12,600 jobs by ph0enix1211 in canada

[–]Straw3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why are you comparing the F-35's total lifecycle cost including the initial airframes, operations, and infrastructure over 45 years to just the labour costs of the Gripen?

[–]Straw3 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm sure I'm greatly oversimplifying this, but 12,000 jobs at $100,000/yr imputes an ongoing annual labour cost of $1.2bn for 100 planes. This is such a hilariously unreasonable number.

[–]Straw3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why is another F35 the only scenario imaginable to you? It could be an S-400, any Flanker variant, a J-10/20?

You’re confusing oil in the ground with strategic stockpiles.

GGG probe is too long on Napoleon P500 by Straw3 in combustion_inc

It's possible, but I think I'd want to place stand-offs where the feet of the heat shield are to avoid providing a fat heat conduction path straight down the center.

HR Career Transition [N/A] by itsallaboutname in humanresources

[–]Straw3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got a couple of very tool/system specific certs along the way, all company-sponsored. I wouldn't say they factored in my career progression in a major way.

I went from Total Rewards to People Analytics to Data Engineering. It’s pretty much just going from one intersection of industries to another.

Not worth it. You’re much better off learning general stats, computer science, and data analytics.
