Very sad. I drive through there (1 block west of 41st and Knight) often. Hopefully the citywide speedlimit reduction on residential streets can help this city implement needed changes to physical infrastructure and traffic law enforcement.

Canadians should mail letters, ring them up, fax them if they can, to let them know that any reasonable person would consider this goal post shifting a complete abdication of their responsibilities.

Everyone likes to believe they’re thinking independently.
Can you elaborate on that claim?
I exercise some critical analysis, but for the most part I just have trust in human ambition. For example: the reason I believe human CO2 emissions are driving climate change is not because I've looked at the evidence and evaluated it for myself.
The reason I believe that human CO2 emissions are driving climate change is: that seems to be the consensus of people that have worked hard to impartially develop expertise and gather data to understand climate science.
There are two important systems at play
1: Scientific research, which harnesses human ambition by rewarding impartial research and discoveries which overturn old assumptions/paradigms.
2: Journalism, which harnesses human ambition by rewarding impartial reporting on various fields of human interest. (Reporting is why it seems to be the consensus of the scientific community)
The impartiality of these systems is (has always been) under assault by capitalism (which also derives its power by harnessing human ambition) and so one must, to an increasing degree, evaluate the appropriate level of personal mental effort to allocate to identifying biases in the reporting.
we'll do everything we can to make sure approvals happen quickly... ...and routinely
So you'll do nothing because that would change the routine?
Presumably anybody that does this gets their code integrated into the training data right?
Just to spell it out for people: myriad means 10,000 but has been used as a stand in for "huge variety" for so long that people don't know that anymore.
I'm basically a secular humanist, and I've heard the statement that Catholics aren't Christians, in person, a few times. The two times that come to mind were from very different people (a Chinese Christian that lives in Beijing, and a Canadian Christian that lives on an apple orchard in southern Ontario). Both of whom were coworkers I spent some time with while travelling for work (different jobs, about 10 years apart).
I've always shut it down as a wildly offensive thing to say, and not worthy of discussing. So I've never gotten a real explantion for why some Christians believe it. Is it a common opinion?

Suspend the site's permit until the organization shows that it takes its obligations seriously.
I 100% agree they should be flipped. Also, Don Draper was lying when he said that, so it's like doubly apt. Canada feels bad for the US but also is living in their shadow. The USA does think of Canada and has an irrational need to put us down.

Little Brown Mushrooms, the most important guideline to amateur mushroom tasting is to only eat half of each mushroom, so that the coroner can figure out which ones are toxic.
