It might not have to be AI, but I want a locally run app I can tell where stuff is in my home… ideally I would let it know when I use/move something and then if I needed to find something I could ask it. Maybe the first time I’ve thought of an app where I’d strongly prefer voice interaction

The "drill, baby, drill" slogan belies the relatively small role of *all* mining, quarrying, O&G extraction activities in the Canadian economy. It's hugely capital intensive (only 1.2% of all jobs) but rip, strip and ship activities contribute just 5.1% to GDP... not even in the top 10 sectors.

Amazing
If only the union in Oshawa had a way of getting word of their plight to the powers that be in Washington, I’m told.

But there is someone who could make that call — their local Conservative candidate Jamil Jivani could easily pick up the telephone and call his best friend, the vice president, on their behalf, if he wanted to. But he hasn’t, it would seem. Perhaps Jivani asking Vance to intervene would be pointless; perhaps he’s afraid of riling up his best friend; perhaps advocating for the auto workers in Oshawa doesn’t serve his personal political ambition; perhaps Oshawa is just a stepping stone for a politician with his eyes on bigger prizes as a Christian nationalist; perhaps the good people of Oshawa are on their own. Vance may well consider himself above the concerns of a few sad-sack Canadians.

The only thing that can be said with certainty is this: J.D. Vance’s best friend has no comment.
