No such thing.

The $10k Chinese EV is only $10k in China. When localized for other markets, it's much closer to the same price as all other EVs. Some of this is tariffs, but there's a bunch of changes they need to make to meet safety requirements. Even the $15k Seagull they talk about in the article is expected to be the cheapest offering in Europe, eventually, and they're aiming for 20k Euros, which is 30k CAD.

Ultimately, if you don't have a legal copy to compare it to, this is just a risk you take when pirating.

Some sources are more trustworthy than others. There probably aren't that many fake ebooks out there, but it's always possible I guess.

I feel like there need to be multiple CS pathways. For example, people who want to go into hardware development might take a set of courses more closely aligned with electrical engineering.

There are.

My university (and many others) offered Computer Science, Software Engineering, and Computer Engineering. Computer Engineering is sort of a middle ground between EE and SE, where you learn hardware concepts like circuits and semiconductors (for hardware development), but there are also algorithm-based courses.

Each of the programs has many options for elective courses, and you can focus on databases, algorithms, security, web development, or whatever you want. The core concepts are the same, and it's more about learning broad concepts and skills, rather than focused skills. Things like Redis and Elasticsearch didn't exist when I took my database course - the practical portion was mostly just SQL. Things like Docker came even later. But the broad concepts I learned allow me to jump in and use "new" technologies as they mature and stabilize.

None of the programs were just "coding bootcamp". Coding was almost inconsequential to my degree (CompEng), though I understand it's used more heavily in Computer Science degrees. I had a single first-year course that was supposed to teach us programming - all the other courses just assumed a basic knowledge. The focus was more on the design, the logic, and the algorithms. Anyone can code - the bootcamps have that right. But not everyone can design and implement a distributed system efficiently and securely.

Nice to meet you Juan. I'm Pierre Poilivere from Calgary, and I love porn. The weirder the better.

Google Pixel phones have a screen call function that seems the same as this.

I don't know if it's technical limitations (it's probably just greed), but I can't imagine that this stays exclusive to Pixels for much longer.

Isn't there an ongoing strike at Loblaws distribution centres? I legitimately can't find any news as to whether it ended, but I also can't find very much news on other strikes that I'm pretty sure did get resolved. Fuck Loblaws, and fuck Google's ever worsening search capabilities.

Those $10,000 EVs all have one or more of the following issues:

1. Don't meet Canadian safety standards
2. Have a top speed around 60-80 km/h
3. Are just an electric bike/trike with a box around it

(3) isn't inherently an issue - I've seen some vehicles like that around - but it does limit the potential audience significantly.

In Ontario, you have to be separated (defined as living apart) for a year before you can get a divorce. There are exceptions for abuse and adultery, but this is the first legal step on the road to divorce. Whenever possible, it's best to keep it as amicable as possible when children are involved. That can still include going on vacations together.

To be clear, if she is contesting a ruling by the referee, she is not allowed to leave the piste (strip) until the situation is resolved by the head official(s). As soon as she leaves the piste, she gives up all rights to contest a ruling.

This happened publicly before with Shin A-lam at the 2012 Olympics, where she had to stay on piste for an hour while the officials discussed the ruling.

I know what DriveTest says, and I'm sure some or all of the testers follow that rule, but frankly, it's pretty dumb. Many vehicles are built in a way where it is incredibly unsafe to back up without using the camera. It's one of many reasons why they've been legally required in all new vehicles for more than 5 years. DriveTest seriously needs to modernize their testing criteria.

This instructor is teaching your mom how to drive, not how to pass the road test. I personally think that's (mostly) a good thing, but you should probably talk to the driving instructor about this discrepancy.

The 40% statistic came from two studies in 1991 [PDF] and 1992 [PDF] from self reported data.The general take is that since it's self-reported that it is likely much higher (since people tend to lie about things like this). However, that data is also over 30 years old, and things could have changed since then. There's no direct data on whether it's getting better or worse, but if I may speculate a little here, I would suggest there's probably a correlation between private domestic abuse and public incidents of police violence, brutality, and killings over time.

The only data I could find on domestic abuse and the nursing profession is actually about abuse against the nurses. Notably, it was still self-reported data, from a single hospital in India (where the baseline for domestic violence is higher than in North America or Western Europe).

Unfortunately, I don't think there's a lot of good data out there. It's an inherently difficult topic to study, and even though it's important, it's unlikely that any study will produce actionable results. The limited amount of funding tends to go towards studies that can improve the world (and/or someone's pocketbook), rather than report on how it is.
