i truly, deeply loathe about Toronto politics is how shamelessly politicians twist vulgar-leftist events/language into policies helping millionaire homeowners

This is going to be excruciating to watch (bless matt for doing the play x play) but cars, along with all the other death and destruction, are used as reason to limit housing options often. The city truly is for the car, not people.

a big thing about going to school and working during the great recession was it was clear work was where you go to get yelled at while art and life were where you learn how to build skills and tackle meaningful problems. i still dont know how to rate other peoples' work experience to this day

the key difference between edmonton and toronto is, fundamentally, one city has a history of home prices swinging up and down because of oil industry boom-bust cycles and the other is a city by and for land speculators (sorry, homeowners)

I am reminded that some of my clients at work are mentioning the cost to acquire attention for sales is going way up, and i do wonder if the ineffectiveness of money recently is related

this piece absolutely slaps. there are so many parts that I could clip to amplify, but this one made me want to run through the damn wall at 1:20am if a socialist can win power in the world’s biggest city, what’s stopping the rest of us?

Own. Being owned, including P3s is a way to higher cost and lower value. In general, in most cases, P3 costs more, takes longer and is lower value and not worth doing. Very few isolated cases are worth it.

Strange Scaffold is one of the most exciting companies in gaming/tech right now because they're explicitly doing many small, weir and experimental things as the industry continues to bloat on big bets that always fizzle out

i have the brain cells & masters in compsci to handle a nuanced discussion on the broad topic of artificial intelligence, but not the character count allotment on here. i will say, the “you’ll be left behind if you don’t use it” crowd is very goofy just like the “have fun being poor” web3 folks were
