a β€œhomeless” aspect. The naming of the concerns is critical to keep track of things. As with most hierarchical systems, cross-cutting or orthogonal aspects don’t fit neatly.

I’ve used concerns from a perspective of enabling what I would call orthogonal behaviours on classes, which is to say a different aspect of business logic and behaviour while not expanding the core class across more dimensions. It’s very useful, but the second dimension is somewhat of …

Move to hold the agents who assaulted a sitting senator in contempt of Congress. Call for articles of impeachment against Noem. Stop working on crypto legislation. Demonstrate the stakes of what is happening in LA with your actions.

Serious question: How can the Canadian Press continue allowing Postmedia to use its wire stories after making unauthorized changes to stories that run under its journalists bylines like this?

People should lift each other up and cheer each other on, not try to outdo each other. The sky would be terribly dark with only one star.

Measles cases in Alberta 6 times higher than other western provinces combined | Globalnews.ca Alberta's south health zone continues to be the hot spot for confirmed cases of measles in the province, which now total 365 cases in all health regions combined.

This isn’t sports, Alberta. We don’t need to win at it. Get you and your kids vaccinated, if you haven’t already. globalnews.ca/news/1117589...

Not sure why the National Lost put instructions in quotation marks. That is literally all he can or should do as a caretaker government. Ensure that regardless of the outcome of the election he gives all needed and useful preparation to the following government.

Following up on this. They just banned a Canadian trans musician from getting a visa to tour the US.

They're straight up banning trans people from entering the US.

Shows that the crowd size estimates are largely bunk all around. Even when done by the police services.

Saying you have multiple times what the building can legally or even physically hold does seem over the top though.

Hey it’s obviously your choice. I would recommend Semafor and The Contrarians personally as independent journalism. Including a lot who ejected from NYT and WaPo when those outlets ejected from proper journalism.

Follow the dollars. Examine the ownership. Research the bias. Be very aware if something is an opinion piece vs a news article and reward the media outlets who make that clear in the publications.

Even looking at the state now objectively the China factor plus the approach leading to most trust is going to have a negative drag on the market going forwards.

Only on some goods under certain CUSMA conditions and when the moon is waning crescent combined with Truth Social posts exceeding a frequency of 3.62 per hour.

Otherwise, roll 2d10 and use that as the percentage.

The explanation the prof gives on having surpluses and deficits in everyday terms is, while simplified, actually one of the better explanations for the baseline.

I’m more amused as far as appearance at Poilievre who is struggling mightily with NOT wearing a suit as he has since he was a teenager.

PP in PPE just isn’t believable. Sorry.

ANALYSIS | Preston Manning's fiction made real in his Alberta pandemic report | CBC News Before the ex-politician helmed a major review of health emergency management, he wrote about an imagined COVID commission. The reports reach many similar conclusions.

Before he warned a Liberal re-election would lead to western secession, Preston Manning led Danielle Smith's post-pandemic management review.
In it, he proposed many of the same reforms he'd written about earlier in a FICTIONAL covid comission report www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Somebody forgot what drives the demand in energy. The economy. The people she wants to β€œclosely align with” just drove a semi into the US economy and global trade.

Again we in Alberta need to consider a sales tax as a stable source of funding for our services and build the Heritage fund.

Let's be clear that this thing Trump just said about having no trade deficits with any country would be far more radical, more disruptive, and more expensive, than every single leftist dream you have ever heard put together, including Medicare for All, Guaranteed Housing, and Universal Basic Income.

It’s one thing to try to control the image and message. That’s pretty normal. Competent people and companies do it through competence and planning. And crap happens. Have a better plan and a better story and then you don’t need to be defensive nor exclusionary. Not everyone will like the message.
