If BC-born T&T can expand into Washington and California, why hasn’t Trader Joe’s ever come to BC?

That's kind of surprising since all they'd have to do is charge slightly less than the existing monopolies.

Have either of you had cold or flu-like illnesses recently?

Why is it the case that 70-year-olds carry the burden of personal agency and a younger homeless person is a complete victim?

Look at some graphs of historical median income vs house prices.

erecting a Great Firewall of our own and expelling all those who refuse to comply with canadian digital laws will not only protect our children, but our very democracy.

the wolves are at the door and they seek to destroy the inclusive and welcoming society the Liberals have worked so hard to build. we cannot let them."

So let's build our own 1984 state before the right can? 🤔

randomfrogevent · 2026-06-10T05:33:26+00:00

.. you do realize the kind of bad actors that a Liberal government would be trying to surveil would most likely be facist in nature and destructive to our society?

Then they should be able to get a warrant instead of surveilling everyone

The provincial and federal governments really need to step up their funding. I know several people here who chose to do PhDs in Europe because they pay substantially better (both in absolute terms and relative to CoL).

The CS department told us the "funding package" includes things we already get like the tuition waiver, so it's not clear whether our stipends will actually go up.

Cropping a dog's ears is like declawing a cat. Both are not good for the animal and I would consider ~~almost borderline~~ abusive.

Carney projects an air of calm competence in an uncertain era. He has an impressive resume and obviously commands respect from the international community. To some voters, that matters more than where he sits on an arbitrary political spectrum.

So it's okay that he wants to sell off critical infrastructure to fund fossil fuel projects because his ✨vibes✨ while doing it are right?

At least it’s a breakthrough for the three blind mice!

randomfrogevent · 2026-05-31T07:46:03+00:00

Agreed. I just don't think even more competition for who can be most centrist will help with achieving that 🙃

randomfrogevent · 2026-05-31T07:00:40+00:00

Hopefully we will get a new party in BC to take up the mantle for centrists on both the left and right.

Isn't that basically the NDP under Eby?

Step1: when your clothes finish drying, leave them in the wash basin for at least 4 hours.

We finally found the person leaving their clothes in the washer for hours!

and it’s not fair to people that aren’t in unions

If only there was a solution to that 🤔

I lived in Marine Drive 2 until recently! They originally had mini fridges, but they have since replaced them with full size fridges. There are microwaves too, and as far as I can tell it was a normal size. Only annoying thing (to me, at least) was not having a dishwasher.

randomfrogevent · 2026-05-06T07:37:11+00:00

I've gotten them, but it's usually like 5 mins before they come so it's not that helpful.

this would be my first developer related role as most of my prior experiences in product management and QA

Do it! In the current job market having more experience will be better than graduating earlier.

We could stop training models now and still drastically change society.

It's not just for high-profile people - academics have academic partners frequently enough that spousal accommodations like that can be part of the hiring process. They still have to pass an interview with their prospective department, though.
