They also have more to coordinate and manage. I don’t think it’s fair to frame it as them being bad at something. What they have to do is much harder, and it takes time.

When I’ve worked at small places, a security patch is bumping some versions and restating some servers.

I worked at a massive Rails shop for a decade and a big security bump meant mobilizing a team, coordinating updating dozens or hundreds of apps, all while maintaining platform stability and staying within SLAs. It’s a nightmare.

Toronto gets snow! Do any other cities they operate in get snow?

So much of winter driving is knowing what is blocked by ice and snow, what snow is probably safe to pass, and navigating around piles of ice and snow that become temporary obstacles.

Granted Toronto gets much less accumulation than a city like Montréal.

Napkin math for me puts newer fridges at 4x more efficient. I’ve got cheap hydro power in Canada, but that would still be about $150/year more in electricity use to keep the old one.

It is rarely enforced though. And the pharmacies will just replace it and ship it again.

This is actually tragic.

I worked for an online pharmacy in Canada for many years, and it’s fraught and full of grey areas for sure. But so so many Americans count on importing generics to afford their medication. You’re talking several times the price difference for the same pills, life changing amounts of money for older people on fixed incomes with health problems. They will simply not be able to access their medication anymore.

There are many obvious differences, but Canada and Australia share many characteristics and I find myself comparing to Aussies. Similar population, massive landmass, population mostly contained in narrow stripes at the edges, ex UK colony, middle power, etc..

In Canada they range from $3000-$4800. Absolutely bonkers prices.

And based on Tailwind’s previous statements about AI impact on them and their business, it’s possible Shopify got a good deal.

Links mostly. To organization or government agencies or whatever official that shares updates only in one place. (Which is bad)

Whelp. I’ve been using Gmail since it was invite only. Sending as my personal domain was grandfathered in. This is going to be my push to leave for another service. I wonder if they understand or intend that?

Canadians may be nice but we are also petty and proud. It’s hard for us to win against a big bully, but we won’t be pushed around either.

Everyone is going to lose here.

He’s goal isn’t to camouflage. Shopify is full AI maximalism, and Tobi’s goal as the CEO is to prove that he can change the world with AI and that his employees should follow.

Up to the reader to believe it or not.

Maple farms take decades to reach maturity. The US imports about 4x more maple from Canada than Vermont’s entire production capacity. It’s not possible.

So consumers will pay double or substitute with flavoured corn syrup.

Quebec alone produces more maple syrup than everywhere else in the world combined, by a wide margin.
