cryoz··on Ask HN: Alternatives to Reddit
Unfortunately, lack of a website I can use on my desktop browser makes this unusable for me. Also I am not sure any of the user generated content on this app would be discoverable by search engines. I fear it will be locked in forever.

cryoz··on Why are so many babies born around 8:00 AM? (2017)
You have to remember that you are not the only patient in the hospital. A Caesarean section requires a lot of setup including OR, anesthesiologist, ensuring adequate care for the newborn, etc. Any of these can cause a delay. Of course there is other cases triaged by urgency like crash sections. It would make no sense to show up to the OR 30 minutes before you can begin operating. An elective Caesarean section will always get bumped for emergencies.

cryoz··on Canada–Fastest growing population in the G7 in 2021
Canada's population grew at almost twice the pace of other G7 countries from 2016 to 2021.

Although the pandemic halted Canada's strong population growth in 2020, it continued to be the fastest among G7 countries.

Canada is home to almost 37 million people, 1.8 million (+5.2%) more than in 2016. Most of the increase occurred prior to the pandemic, with Canada's population rising by a record high of 583,000 people (+1.6%) in 2019.

Immigration, not fertility, mostly drove Canada's population growth from 2016 to 2021 and was also the main reason for the slowdown since 2020 due to border restrictions put in place to curb the spread of COVID-19.
