>Look how cold some countries and regions get? As someone from said countries and regions, people living outside freeze to death here. Long before you get to that point your water pipes will freeze, leaving you without…
Depends on where you are in Canada. In Québec where electricity is cheap, most homes rely on electric heating. Of course, in Alberta where gas is cheap and electric is ~2.5x more expensive it's not surprising gas…
I interpret it closer to being pro-choice while hoping to not personally need an abortion. Unions form when workers feel they aren't being heard and aren't being properly represented. Having a union form at your own…
A) also doesn't work unless all other road users (bikes, scooters, skateboards, pedestrians, etc.) are also banned from the roads. The other option is limiting the autonomous cars to tunnels or dedicated tracks, but…
Agreed. That's my strategy for my road bike as well. For an ebike though? The whole point is to make getting places and doing errands easier. I use a cheap beater bike for this kind of trip. I think the only real…
I imagine it would depend on the state. In California, I believe they can get away with putting "0" as the number of vacation days you are entitled to, so any of the "unlimited" days you take off are really at the whim…
They can't afford not to. The alternative is shutting down, no?
Is this supposed to be an argument in favour of the 2 hour commute? Because that still sounds like a miserable waste of time to me. I would take the pay cut, look for a new job, or move closer to work. No job in the…
Both approaches can work, but lead to different outcomes. The market for "todo list" apps is absolutely big enough there's room for more than one company. The beauty of the bootstrapped model is you don't need to "win…
> or the literal connotation makes you a little uncomfortable. How so? "The people's car" seems rather innocuous to me. My only guess would be that it could make some American anti-socialists uncomfortable?
As others have mentioned, this post is about Shopify apps, not Shopify stores. I'd recommend doing a bit more research before deciding to boycott a company. They're absolutely not taking a 20% cut from sales of physical…
Chess matches usually involve multiple games, so you don't need to win every game to win the match. It's not uncommon to play trying to avoid a loss (going for a draw), instead of playing riskier moves in an attempt to…
Agreed that the jacket is great. Point is, as a Canadian I consider it a layering piece, not a winter jacket. :)
See, this just tells me that 3-5 sick days is completely inadequate. I've been fortunate to generally have virtually unlimited sick days, and I very much prefer that to having to use up my limited vacation days. It does…
You're not far off on your numbers, they laid off around 1900 people back in May, out of ~7500 employees. I would think the IPO is happening despite the pandemic, not because of it. They had been planning to go public…
