Its really bothering me that 2.1% was listed above 2.2% at the suicide covid bars.

Both. Both is good.

Yes, but at scale it is significantly cheaper to build larger and distribute it. It also means people don't have to over invest in their own set up just to cover their peak usage. There is also a large amount of up front capital required to build with usually years before you get back what was invested. Its also almost impossible for renters or apartment buildings to do it themselves.

My area privatized the publicly owned electricity provider and since prices started going up they then had to implement rebates to bring bills down a bit. Effectively a roundabout way to move public funds from paying for the actual infrastructure into subsidizing corporate profits instead

I think pushing kids straight outta high school into college is a mistake. Some may be ready for it but many would benefit from experiencing the world a bit, putting some money behind them, maturing at little bit.

I took college in my mid 20s and by then i was able to balance a social life and school life very well. Had I gone earlier I may have either burnt out or been distracted by parties and more social aspects of college.

I view it similar to rebates and tax breaks. Like nudging people towards EVs with rebates or relieving the cost of having kids by offering tax breaks. The government sees the shift they want (electrification, increased birth rate) and the people have financial or other incentives to make those choices.

I'm no fan of ford but i don't mind OSAP being prioritized for genuine in demand nation building career opportunities. Programs to get people into electrical engineering or other careers that will support our future could be beneficial. I doubt thats actually how this will all go down but as a concept prioritizing certain degrees over others with public funding isn't the worst thing, especially if it can help build a stronger economy to open funding for more variety of programs later down the line.

Its seriously concerning how many people think just banning trans people will fix situations like this.

It looks like hes either trying to nudge it over a touch or a put a bit of spin on it. He wouldn't risk cheating at the Olympics with a method that has zero effect.

But isn't that evil authoritarian communism? /s

Me after 3 drinks: y'all know what a tram is?

Living in the right spot is crucial. We cant all live in a proper walkable neighborhood becase well mostly because north america won't build that at the scale its desired, but even ensuring you're close to the right strip mall or shopping center is better than nothing.
