So many companies that legally required a server physically located in Canada are going to be running to AWS now, practically everyone touching health care, government, personal data, or even getting some level of government funding likely was obligated to keep things within Canadian borders.

Finally, machine learning is being used for something beneficial to society

Agreed, Ive run a few nodes on and off for years, and to date I still have one in the neatherlands running however I have never run an exit node, because I'm just too nervous of the legality around it.

As an Eastern / Atlantic Canadian, I have always herd it "24 of beer" never "24 beer"or more common people ignore the "beer" part, for example "I'm going to get a 24 for the weekend".

If I'm going to pick a new programming language I want to know a bit more than "easy" "c style" and "built in node" (that last bit is terrifying).

What about telling me about your compiler, or why you thought we needed another language and how this solves the problem?

I spent $150 each or something like that on my apple routers about 5 years ago, they both are still running strong but since technology has of course advanced so much in the past few years, I would spend that on a router with the hope it lasts the same time.

When digg stole from reddit it was different, when reddit stole from slashdot it was different... People are more likely to move to something new and different, as strange as that sounds.

Makes sense, I could never eat KD without my Heinz Ketchup!

Past 6 months I was learning Go, but I started looking into Rust yesterday and am tempted to give it some attention.

Very cool! I started something like this with a WordPress implementation a few years ago and never bothered to complete it, so cool to see somebody else with a similar idea and actually finished it!

I've been developing a Node site that is currently running on Heroku. This happened the first day after launch, and to say the least my blood pressure was through the roof all day. I was terrified if something went wrong, we would be dead in the water. I don't think I would deal with them again (if I had the chance).
