I worry that this election obliterated the "ancestral" ndp voter for good — what reason could they possibly have to go back

raycast has hot reloading in theory but it breaks half the time so the experience actually isn't all that different

yeah, ime the only good options are copilot or something like claude code that takes over completely, haven't had any positive experiences with anything in between

also inclusionary zoning, union/local sourcing requirements, the whole basket of "trying to extract 'good' things out of something that would be good in itself"

almost forgot, bonus: iv works av4 — my first custom. also punches well above its pay grade. stacked acrylic is a ridiculously nice looking material given how cheap it is

geon f1-8x 722 — finishing off strong. not much to say, geon is the goat. lowest sale price board in this thread but probably the nicest sounding & feeling. jack of all trades, absolute pleasure to type on

keycult no.1/65 — the hype kind of died with a year of delays, all for a board that was unique in 2020 but doesn't really have much to write home about in 2025. it's a really nice colour though and goes well with these keycaps

class 0413 — love the chunkiness, absolute presence. not the greatest sounding for my first electrocapacitative board, but the pairing with these keycaps more than makes up for it

werk one — my grail for nearly three years, still a bit giddy about it. gorgeous curves. one of a kind masterpiece. just don't look up how much it cost

don't worry, Québec is doing its best to catch up

nope, her style of politics is centered on maintaining good relations with upper levels of government above all else, and pushing them in private at best
more generally though, even before this, she hasn't seemed very interested in massively improving biking or transit, more status quo tinkering

provincial/federal parties don't play much of a role in municipal politics — she definitely has the NDP "establishment" on her side, but it's very nebulously defined, and there isn't a ton for her to celebrate beyond electing an NDP mayor — if nothing else, a challenger could force some real policy

part tax hike, part uploading, part bonds/municipal corporations, part "funding shit when you build it and not ten years in advance"

it's annoying how good albertan cities are at civic infrastructure, the rest of the country gave up on stuff looking good like 30 years ago
