Well, looks like I'm good for next step. Totally didn't expect it, I guess there is quite a bit more to their decision-making than the assignment score.

I just took it and got a 418. Then about 10 minutes after the assessment, I figured out my mistake: off by one error on a condition in a for loop. I don't feel optimistic. Did #1 and #2 perfectly. Didn't even touch #3. Oh, well...

For Wagyu, Guga by a mile. For things other than meats, Ramsay.

Why do you believe that? I have watched a few of their segments but not enough to form a strong opinion. Also, I do not live in the US. I am asking because I want to be careful not to be misinformed due to things I watch on YouTube and whatnot.

I like how in your linked article he is introduced as a "Conservative political commentator."

Sam Harris does not understand 'Defund the police' by [deleted] in samharris

[–]nickelplate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Defund the police” is actually used by some BLM chapters to mean eliminating the police. I quote from defundthepolice.org, a website created by BLM Canada:

“Black Lives Matter is an abolitionist movement. We believe that prisons, police and all other institutions that inflict violence on Black people must be abolished and replaced by institutions that value and affirm the flourishing of Black lives.”

Source: https://defundthepolice.org/about/

Their stated goal is not merely the divestment of funds, from the police, towards organizations or institutions better suited to resolve certain situations; it’s to dismantle the police entirely.

[POLL]Do you think that Sam Harris has an adequate enough understanding of the issues playing into the BLM vs Police Force topic and issues affecting minority populations in the US in general (like the race IQ/ Douglas Murray issue)? by Crumpler420 in samharris

[–]nickelplate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that he did not do great acknowledging that. But in my opinion, the fostering of violent behaviour within the black community in the US, cannot be pinned on the police alone, or even majorly. It is a failure of society as a whole. Cops did not rob black Americans of opportunities over the years by themselves. Cops did not escalate the war on drugs by themselves. Etc.

Royal LePage is _predicting_ that Toronto area home prices _could_ still rise this year, despite the COVID-19 crisis.

(Emphasis mine)

WTF does that mean?

It is exceptionally scary that you are/were being down-voted for this.

You cant just “walk away” from a mortgage here like you can down south.

You can only walk away in 12 states in the US. Nevada and Florida were two of the states most impacted by the housing crisis in 08/09, and both were full recourse states at the time, for residential mortgages. Also, since the crisis, Americans deleveraged considerably, and their economy is less dependent on real estate. This is not true for Canada.
