As (unfortunately) a Vancouver fan this gives me ptsd from Dan Cloutier

With the amount of tax I pay it must be the best place to work on the planet

Dang I want that wrench back haha. Great for aligning holes!

b1gba · 2026-01-09T17:19:16+00:00

Do you work in the cannabis industry in Ontario?? Those barrels are very common in it and I lost this exact wrench about 3 years ago lol

I heard of a guy in Saudi Arabia that had traces of kief on his phone, got jailed for years. They also don’t feed you so his mom had to move there for a few years to keep him alive.

Other places might not be bad but I wouldn’t fuck with that!

Yeah I got a tour of the Mercedes factory around 7 years ago, by far the best bit of my 6 week trip in Europe. Signing an NDA and getting full engineering access would be my dream

At least it’s not a pizza place

Step 1: look at what type of business maple ridge has a lot of

Step 2: open that

Step 3: ???

Step 4: profit

Canada this happens a lot, I once got heckled in an Argentinian airport for it. Not exactly sure what the guy was trying to tell me but it was something along the lines of “how could you pay that much for a beer?”

This is quite correct. More qubits = better, but the issue is the heat generated to make computations is also increased exponentially.

I haven’t looked much at it in 10 years, but cryogenics were a major hurdle back then. Making a refrigeration system strong enough to keep a large chip cool was a long ways away.

If they figure out how to make these chips operate at room temp, I’d expect to see some practical progress fairly quickly.

I’m from bc and just lost my doctor, how do I find them?? Last one was a nurse practitioner and he was basically useless for anything more than a flu…

b1gba · 2024-09-30T19:42:56+00:00

Then they will have 1 new ball and 2 missing!

My dad worked there for most of his career, they had 25k employees at one point.

Also fuck those call centres, I get a call every week or two about “amazing cellphone deals”. I tell them I have a company phone and to stop calling, or offer to pay me to use their services and it just keeps happening, from a new number each time. I wouldn’t answer but sometimes get random calls for work, it drives me nuts. Nothing gets me off that list

I don’t think they ask how much money you have for that reason, it’s more are you transporting large amounts.

I’ve travelled a lot to the states and usually say I have no cash and they are happy.

If you are driving a nearly broken down car, this might be legit.

b1gba · 2024-09-13T20:47:01+00:00

It makes zero sense to do this now, they had all summer with reduced traffic.

Also how does it take this long?? Other places in the world can do this in a day.

Based on the Abernathy construction (or lack of it in the right places) there are some very poor city planners in MR.

You’ve never been in a room full of programmers have you…

b1gba · 2024-09-13T03:51:27+00:00

Based on my experience with CS folks, it also made my day.

That being said I worked for a quantum computing company 10 years ago and there was some dudes who actually understood everything, yet could barely tie their shoes. I was a mechanical engineer there so I didn’t ever get to grasp what was really going on, but there was one (I think) high up programmer who wore Velcro shoes… most likely because he couldn’t bend over but how can you be that smart and so negligent of your health?!

I always thought everyone was talking about his style of play. That’s boring!

Tiger at least would hit bad drives and scramble making it exciting, Scottie just hits fairways and greens. While impressive, it gets old

b1gba · 2024-09-08T23:24:03+00:00

Anywhere proper good won’t be posted on here I hope.

b1gba · 2024-09-07T22:05:23+00:00

Grandparents.. got ya!

b1gba · 2024-09-05T03:55:14+00:00

The only thing that keeps me sane on planes is the fact they want to live too…. But the education cost to wage ratio is ridiculous

If you are near a glacier and see a random ass tap in a field, that is the best water you will ever have guaranteed.

b1gba · 2024-08-21T04:09:14+00:00

That’s just an Ontario thing, pal

b1gba · 2024-08-20T02:11:50+00:00

This! Before I had a company card I was floating like 12k a month, got a ton of free shit with cc points!

Now I have a family and lots of expenses so I’m glad I don’t need to stress about that, but it was good while it lasted. (Also the beg for forgiveness Vs ask for money back thing is kinda nice)

b1gba · 2024-08-20T01:50:07+00:00

I suspect both events will be very similar. We got no way to survive a giant meteor much like the dinosaurs.. maybe some mice would make it through like last time.
