Love the charity events with team costumes that would raise more money if the team just donated the money they spent on costumes 👍👍

Seeing more and more people refer to the national budget balance, revenue position, etc. as "The fisk". Gotta categorically, unequivocally and relentlessly nip that Sorkinian cringe in the bud.

AI a growing misery in tax authorities. Correspondence, disputes, appeals a mess. We've gone from a handful of well-known sovereign citizen cranks to universally empowering every taxpayer to dispute every assessment. Effort to formulate cohesive thought in an email used to dissuade most...

Saw a tweet that you can bring back dreaming as an adult if you lower your caffeine intake. Gave it a shot. Two observations: (1) wow totally works (2) why the hell did i want to do that dreams are horrible i'm waking up three times a night with feelings

Most of it is just auditing and merging work that has been done previously. But one change goes a little deeper, it repairs broken labels that StatCan sends down. And emits a warning to notify the user that labels were changed. And it has a surprisingly large blast radius...

is part of the reason groceries are so expensive that we're treating animals nicer? cause it's getting harder and harder to find the cheap abusive stuff, especially chicken.

I’m mainly interested in what a guy like Leopold Aschenbrenner’s pay package ends up for a year on the whole like this. Does he still walk away minted from six months of management fees?
