"The study of programming history might not be the solution to all the problems in our industry, for sure. It is also worth pointing out that most university curricula simply do not include any mention whatsoever of such subjects. Maybe it is time to start providing such information to students."

Trump big mad again cuz Ford used Reagan’s words.
Hilarious.
The weirdest thing about all this is this is all fighting amongst varying shades of right wing capitalists…
My question is… where are the social democrat alternatives to all this? I hear it amongst real people… but it is basically absent from mainstream politics.
Maybe the people need to change that.

My son is in Ontario on Remembrance Day (our name for Armistice Day in Canada) for the first time and he was shocked it wasn’t a public holiday like it is in B.C.
He was disappointed to be in Ottawa, just a few minutes away from the National War Memorial by metro, but couldn’t attend because he has classes today.
I agree with him. It is very strange that this day, of all days, is not a national day.
So instead he rushed through his class so he could at least get to the small ceremony held on campus.
How sad that there is so little time and space made for it in our largest and most populous province.
Even in our nation’s capital.

So incredibly angry at Mark Carney, who I thought, with all his UN "climate tzar" cred, would be able to bridge the divide between industry and co2 emissions.
Turns out, he is just an oily vassal for complete climate and carbon capitulation.
Alberta's oil industry is "very happy" acording to Alberta Premier Smith's Chief of Staff.
It's full steam ahead for carbon emissions. They have what they believe is a green light for massive growth.

This is so damning. The top of the CBC story (JP Tasker reporting)
“Smith said she got Carney to back down on most of the Trudeau-era "nine bad laws," as she calls them, that restricted oil and gas development in Alberta.
Carney, meanwhile, says he got Alberta to buy into the Pathways carbon capture project to try and decarbonize the oil pumped out of the province.”
It would be like Putin saying he got Zelenskyy to back down on Donbas and Crimea, but Zelenskyy says Putin agreed to security guarantees from Russia and the USA.
Carney = Capitulator
Also... YOU CAN'T DECARBONIZE OIL.
ffs. what a stupid statement.
Maybe Putin will De-TNT his Ballistic Missiles.

Housing policy in BC finally starting to bear fruit:
"Rental prices seem to be taking a dip in B.C. as the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) released its 2025 Rental Market Report, which showed that Greater Victoria’s vacancy rate rose to 3.3 per cent, the highest it’s been since 1999…. The report noted that the steepest rent declines are focused in B.C. and Ontario, with B.C. being host to seven of of the top 15 cities recording the largest annual rent declines for apartments.”
A largest-ever national population decline helps a lot too!

"Dynamic” - "Demand based" pricing needs to be outlawed.
Ticketmaster
VIA Rail
Hotels/Accomodations
Airlines
Restaurants
They have all started using this model and it's contributing hugely to unaffordability of life.

“A landmark deal to cut global shipping emissions has been abandoned after Saudi Arabia and the US succeeded in ending the talks.”
The purveyors of Fossil Fuels stand strong to doom the world to catastrophe for one more dollar.
I won't be shocked if I hear Canada fell in line.
It's enough to make one want to light the world on fire, if it wasn't already.
