It's more that this is close to the best design possible for this mission, it would take decades and lots of money to develop another aircraft that does the same thing that might not produce that much of an advantage. There are lots of designs that have been around for ages because they are effective and there is no reason to replace them. Even in the civilian world, there are lots of aircraft types that have been around for 50+ years because there is no real reason to get rid of them as long as they can be upgraded to the latest systems.

It's really only when an aircraft can no longer be upgraded or its mission no longer exists and can't be adapted easily for another one is when it's retired.

It is still part of the country of Canada. My point was saying Canada uses bags of milk is no different than saying Americans do X when its only Florida or a handful of states.

I have lived in Canada my entire life and I have not bought or used a bag of milk ever or even seen it being sold.

Weird I have a Pixel 6 Pro and a 4a right in front of me that don't have the Verizon background crapware, nor have any of my devices came with that.

What sort of keywords? Surely there would be a lot of false positives if it was just 1 word being matched with no context.

Yes of course but I was not describing how things should be, I was describing how they currently are.

Yeah I agree, its kind of silly that we allow ancient irrelevant and overly broad laws to stay on the books, especially in most societies that ignorance of the law is not an excuse. For example, in Canada, the police can issue a DUI if you have a BAC exceeding the limit for driving up to 2 hours after you have parked your car. If they literally went to every bar and drinking establishment (or door to door) and enforced that to the letter, it would be changed in quite a hurry.

But that is not true, most countries have what is called prosecutorial discretion: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prosecutorial_discretion The police can, for the most part, decide whether or not to enforce laws. They can also choose not to investigate certain crimes as they simply don't have the time to look into absolutely everything. Furthermore, if police had to literally enforced every law on the books to the letter, they would not be able to drive or walk down the street without having to arrest people constantly.

It's a legal duty in the sense that the CEO of Intel has to act broadly in the best interest of the company, ie. he would be in trouble if he made decisions on purpose just to make the company lose money. But there is no duty to maximize share price or profits at all costs no matter what. See: https://www.nytimes.com/roomfordebate/2015/04/16/what-are-co...

The issue with ICBC is that you are forced to do business with them no matter how you feel about their business practices or how much they are charging. ICBC can change their pricing completely from year to year and there is nothing you can do about it if you need to keep driving your car. This is not even an exaggeration, a few years ago ICBC did adjust their rates such that some people were suddenly paying thousands more per year despite having no claim history, They have since changed the fee structure since then but it is a bit scary when your premiums go from $2000 per year to $5000 or more.

It would help if you explained what they changed it from and to and when maybe.

What Canadian banks are not in the Interac network?

How is the dispute resolution process different with a cheque vs other forms of payment? What do you have to put in the note line that makes this legal requirement? and how is this different than a regular sales contract? I don't know what you would buy for $5k+ that doesn't already have some sort of sales contract which would be legally binding. It's not like you can show up to a dealership with $20k in cash and just drive a car off the lot without signing anything.

Canada does have a constitution, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitution_Act,_1982 so I don't understand what you are talking about.

> Comparing the covid vaccines to previous vaccines is simply absurd. You know what other vaccines do? THEY PREVENT YOU FROM GETTING THE DISEASE! The covid vaccines do not do this! Even if you get the covid vaccine, you can still get covid and you can still die!

Name one vaccine ever made that has a 100% prevention rate. I've never seen anyone claim this for any vaccine before covid.

> Bet that kinda sucks for people in Canada or australia on super limited data caps though, it's kind of a weird US- and euro-centric perspective.

What?!? I live in Canada and have not had a data cap in over 10 years. They might exist for some ISPs but they are generally high enough that I've never heard anyone complain or get charged.

That's a study of people already visiting the hospital for a cat bite, which implies they were fairly serious wounds. Of course if you have a serious enough wound to go to the hospital over and possibly get plastic surgery to repair, yes there is a serious risk of infection obviously. The OP was implying that ANY cat bite that breaks the skin means you should rush to the doctor which that paper does not prove.

Furthermore, I already acknowledge that proper wound care should not be ignored.

I have been around house cats for almost my entire life and have been bit and scratched countless times and I never have had any wound that has had an infection as a result. So would like to see the actual statistics on how often people lose their hands from their pet cat biting them.

Not that I am saying one shouldn't use applicable wound care but find it difficult to believe that you must visit a doctor right away or else you will get a bad infection and lose a limb.

What makes you think web dev is mindless or cannot benefit from multiple cores?

My point is you can't write a long post about Canadian law, use the wrong terminology and expect to be taken seriously. It's not like its commonly referred to as the Ontario state or state of Quebec. It would be like if I was talking about US law and said the territory of Maryland. It is technically a territory as in "an area of land under the jurisdiction of a ruler or state" but no one refers to it as the territory of Maryland either formally or informally and also makes my post less credible as it sounds like I don't know what I am talking about.

None of which are states.

What other Canadian state can you move the job to?

CBP is Customs and Border Protection (part of the US federal government). CBSA is Canada Border Services Agency which is the Canadian border patrol. There is no mention of Canada in the article

Every credit card I have had shows the balance increasing every time you make a purchase with it, when you pay the bill, the balance decreases. None of my credit card accounts have ever shown a negative balance unless I over paid the bill.

Umm NSAIDs like Naproxen have their own list of issues which may be worse than Tylenol. Another issue is that Tylenol is often used because it does not interact with other NSAIDs so if you are not sure if someone has taken medication with a NSAID in it, you can safely give them Tylenol, generally speaking, where as if you give them more NSAIDs you could potentially risk an overdose. So its not as simple as Napoxen is superior to Tylenol. IANAD,

> I dont think people are leaving Canada because they have to pay higher taxes or because they hate the healthcare system.

That's not what I said at all. I said Canadians are leaving Canada because they can make more money outside of Canada(ie. like close to double the salary in some cases). Raising taxes is not going to encourage them to stay if they are leaving because of monetary reasons.

That may be true, my perspective as a Canadian which is a fairly socialistic country compared to the US is a bit different. We have a massive problem with the brain drain as a lot of people who are college educated go to the US to earn higher salaries, especially in but not limited to tech. But its possible that the proximity to the US is a factor as you can still easily visit your friends and family in Canada while living in the US.

There are lots of people who don't try to make more money because of roadblocks put in by the government. Obviously the uber-rich like Mark Zuckerberg or Bill Gates don't care that much about taxes but for someone in the low to middle income brackets it can be challenging to move up as you pay more in taxes and receive less help from the government.

If you make enough money that you can live comfortably and you would have to move up a lot to counter the offset to make more money in the next tax bracket, I think the majority of people would not bother. Outside of HN, a lot of people are satisfied with making an okay salary and having steep tax bracket changes just amplifies that. Obviously, everyone would like to make more money if they could do so easily but if it is very difficult to do so, a lot of people will not be bothered.

The people who do want to make a lot of money and become rich, well if they have to deal with crazy taxes, they are going to either find away around the tax laws, or simply leave the country which both options are not good for the country.

Why is taxing high earners more a good idea? It just gives people an incentive to either not make that much money or leave the country to make more money.
