Not necessarily. He did very well on the vote share front. There will be a leadership review, but I could see him getting a second shot once Carneys shine has worn off. Minority governments seldom last very long.

That’s the reason the PC and Reform parties merged back in the 90s. FPTP incentives two party races, this election is a stark example.

Interestingly, Poilievre got more votes in Ontario than Doug did in the February provincial election. If the NDP vote hadn’t collapsed the way it did he could easily have won.

A few years after the rest of the world stops using them.

Attack the idea, not the source. Are there errors in the article?

The Quebec language police with an Anglaiscisme in their name gets slapped down. What a waste of time and money.

Has Carney said anything about this? I hope he does, but I don’t see why he would. He’s still got all the people around him who didn’t deliver it last time.

Doug Ford better not become prime minister.

Women didn’t fail men

Men failed men.

How about society failed men? You act like women are not participants in culture or upbringing.

This isn’t a case where one gender bears the responsibility, and it’s telling that your first reaction is to push blame away from women rather than genuinely confront an issue.

Violent control over women is still all too prevalent, but as it slowly becomes a unacceptable in society, the losers who relied on it are discovering that they’re reprehensible pieces of shit who deserve to be alone and lonely

So the reason boys are lagging behind girls in primary school is because the six year old boys are reprehensible pieces of shit? I doubt you actually believe that.

Interesting how it’s changed over the years. I was a deputy returning officer a few elections ago and the official line then was that pencil was the accepted implement because it was less likely to smudge and spoil a ballot.

Of course, you’d have to make sure the pens were all the same colour, otherwise it could be used to mark ballots (I. E. I use my green pen to prove I voted for so and so). That could circumvent the secret ballot.

I would have checked that, but it’s all too plausible.

The conversation around this is almost always disingenuous. Older people have the views they were raised in, and they think reality is the same for the younger generation.

Meanwhile, there are practices like the progressive stack that send white or male people to the back of the line (literally) in the name of equity. I imagine opposing that would also be “anti-feminist”.

There’s now a generation of young men who were told “shut up, it’s our turn now” and surprise surprise, young men are tuning out those people.

Funny enough, if the gender gap in early teaching were taken more seriously it would be less of a problem.

You have to wonder if this whole thing is just a petty attempt at retribution by Trump, because this guy was allowed to stay in the country the first time.

I think it’s simpler than that. Bringing him back would show they did something wrong, and that’s obviously impossible, because he’s the second coming of Prosperity Gospel Jesus.

You mean the bill that would have required all Canadians to share personal information with adult websites? The bill she hand waved away any privacy concerns about?

It’s an anti-porn bill, “think of the children” is just the excuse.

Is it? All I see in the article is talk about broader bans, nothing about addressing the border or smuggling.

Canada already has good gun control. We’ve had it for decades. Very, very few lawful gun owners commit crimes with their guns.

The last government has been great at announcing ever longer lists of guns to ban but has yet to seize a single one. The list gets longer, the date it takes effect keeps getting pushed out too.

Focus on the source of guns used in crimes: our neighbors to the south. Performative bans of experimental guns and historic rifles makes no one safer.

Still working my way through Godel, Escher, and Bach. I also just got The Wok by Kenji Alt Lopez, that’s my browsing book for now.

I agree with the lawyer that harassment is a bit of a stretch but it’s not a good look to pester someone to change data you don’t like (see also “don’t believe the polls” from the blue team)

It’s cope, and not something you see from someone who expects to win.

100%, we’re doing human and automated reviews on the code changes, and the code explanation is just the first step of several.

you have to be there when the code was written and went through the various iterations.

Well, we don’t have that. We’re mostly dealing with other people’s mistakes and tech debt. We have messy things like nested stored procedures.

If all we get is some high level documentation of how components interact I’m happy. From there we can start splitting off the useful chunks for human review.
