The one penny increase in price really gonna make or break you, huh?


A can of beer is going up in price by less than a penny


And they are because Alberta is statistically the youngest province


I actually had a concept for a fantasy world, where magicians craft spells much the same way software devs do. So you make your spell and publish it to the ether, and then anyone can invoke it using the magic word (package name), assuming the have the right dependencies available (eye of newt or whatever). But spells might have bugs. So if you used eye of red newt while the spell smith built it with the expectation you had eye of blue newt you might get unintended consequences


The demons are attracted to doorways, passages between spaces, worlds, and realms. And printers are the ultimate doorway: a portal through which ideas and concepts can leave the software realm and enter the physical



Who doesn’t use arrow functions?



Yeah saying Apple is anti-privacy is like… what? Compared to who? Apple is consistently fighting against meta and google (and governments) in favour of user privacy

Barring anything substantial changing we’ll have kings for at least the next 70 years (George will be about 80 by then)


We also had one while Canada was being set up, so like all the treaties we signed were between her majesty and the various indigenous groups. So a lot of historical stuff is queen this and queen that, and then combine that with the past 70 years of queening and you get a very significant proportion of Canada’s history being queenly


Duplicating the key removes some accountability. With this set up you can revoke access to only one person, while leaving the access in place for everyone else. If you had a single lock with six copies then a bad actor getting a copy means you’d have to replace everyone else’s keys

This also means one person can’t take their lock off and replace it with another, and therefore lock out everyone else


It also would’ve stayed up a lot longer if the watertight compartments had gone all the way up, so water couldn’t have continued filling ones further aft. It still had more compromised than it could withstand, but it may have been able to remain afloat long enough for the Carpathia to arrive for rescue


Because of the increased revenue to creators I don’t feel so bad about installing sponsorblock to skip in-video ads


Anecdotally, Saskatoon Pride was this past Saturday. Tremendous turnout of at least 10,000 (actually the parade this year was the largest parade of any kind in the history of Saskatchewan), and as far as I’m aware there were no protestors of any kind anywhere along the parade route, and there were no security incidents at all during the festival


There are tons of coops across western Canada. It’s basically a chain at this point. Every small town has one. But for some reason they are very rare in the east
