As a non-American, it's crazy to me that there (apparently) aren't any safe storage laws enforced. Would it really infringe people's gun rights to require that all firearms may only be in a safe, in your hands, or on your person (in a holster, sling, etc.)?
At least some of the app developers have realized that if they develop for Postgres they get to keep the Sql Server licensing costs for themselves. Windows server licensing costs too, if they're clever.
Unfortunately the old janky enterprise shit will probably never get updated. You know the ones. The ones that think they're new and hip because they support SSO (Radius only)
Most games work well; some don't yet, and a few probably never will (CoD, PUBG). The easiest way to check is to go here: https://protondb.com and either look up the games you actually play, or just give it your steam profile URL on the profile page and have it scan your library.
For a concrete example of what @asterfield@lemmy.world said, if there are 10 workers, and 9 of them are making minimum wage ($17.40 in BC), then the remaining worker would make $192.90/hr. $1772.40/hr if 99/100 make minimum wage.
Median is definitely the better measure, though no single measure is adequate to answer the question of whether Canadians are better off than they were last year.
bears won’t stalk you, pretend to be friendly to gain your trust with the intention of harming you
Actually they will (sometimes). I had one young black bear that kept approaching me like a shy dog. It kept looking away and pretending to nibble bushes when I shouted at it. I left before finding out if it wanted to eat me (it probably did, being first thing in the spring). Another time we had a black bear that wasn't too obviously aggressive, but followed one of our crew around for two days. We ended up shooting it because we were in a fly-in camp and couldn't leave.
Most bears I met walked or ran away, including grizzlies.
Bears are complicated.
But she's not telling me, is she? She's telling every man everywhere, forever. I can't do anything with that information, except wonder if she's calling for all men and women to be strictly segregated for women's safety. At which point you've gone so far into nth-wave feminism that you've arrived at Saudi society as as model.
I like pedantry as much as the next person, but skew is a regular English word as well as a statistical term. It's clear here which usage they meant.
Or they could suck up a bunch of subsidies to get started, then sell their subsidiary to Loblaws. Foreign company gets cash, and Loblaws gets even more market dominance. Everyone wins!
If you look here, you'll see that all the trades involved in housing construction are on the list for fast-track immigration already.
As for training, we may find that it's more the number of people leaving the trades that is the problem. It's not that the pay is bad, exactly, but it's an industry extremely prone to boom/bust cycles. People leave for jobs with some sense of stability. Increasing unionization and enhancing EI might be more cost effective than funding more training.
They didn't mention that public sector workers are about 60% unionized, but private sector is more like 10%. Collective bargaining typically sets pay on the position, not the worker.
It's supposed to be reflected in the price to the consumer. That's what's supposed to cause the consumers to make less carbon-intensive choices.
For goods or services that don't actually have any fossil carbon used, there probably should be a mechanism to call them out for misinformation.
The bear uses Arch, BTW.
