20k dead, most your population displaced, and all your infrastructure destroyed is a pretty severe consequence. Israel would get a lot farther with a post-war Germany style re-education program than it’s current policies.

So at this point we have went from two-state solution to the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from the region they live in. Makes perfect sense. By the same regard we could send the Israelis from the region and that would also resolve the fighting, likely more permanently than having the...

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-68830552 So for those saying why isn’t Gaza like the West Bank, here is what being in the West Bank as a Palestinian gets you. At least 460 Palestinians dead since Oct 7th. Or 2/5 of the death toll of Oct 7th. In comparison there is 13 Israelis dead in...

Not very far from the origins of the hangover there. I am surprised no one has tried to do something like a Japanese bullet hotel with a storage closet nearby.

Renting does have some pros. Your not locked into a area. Your rent is the max you will spend as opposed to a house where your mortgage payment is the minimum. In a lot of the larger cities your rent is less than the mortgage payments at this point. Lots of businesses have bought into the...

Housing was and isn’t the Liberals responsibility, thats provincial. Trades training is also a provincial responsibility as it falls under education. There is some level of cooperation with the red seal program, but ultimately those powers are provincial ones. Specifically it is a failure of...

Keep in mind the number of houses being built currently isn’t always increasing supply. Knocking down a smaller older house and replacing it with a bigger one on the same lot isn’t increasing housing supply. I personally don’t believe corporations should own single dwelling homes/homes not...

2 if you have the trade certification. That being said the conditions they put on it all is insane. All to keep the teachers as a exclusive closed workforce. Its concerning when the province is talking about putting non-trades teachers in charge of trades classes. Unlike other subjects where...

I would like to become a trades teacher myself. I genuinely love my trade and sharing it with others I quite enjoy. That being said getting a 2 year degree to teach is stupidity. Taking two years off work to move to another city to get a degree when I am making more than what a teacher makes...

You still need humans to vet it. Often it can be more time consuming to have to verify and correct than to just do it right with a human. Plus AI can only go off of what it has been told, if it is reading a wrong code, it doesn’t necessarily understand that. I am not into computers myself, but...

100% my point was more that historically the choice of degree mattered much less due to who was taking it, as opposed to now where it is much more accessible for the whole population. Your family could be wealthy and still send you to get a degree that doesn’t generate wealth and you would...

Its not just police foundations. Plenty of collge programs which tons of students take and result in no jobs at the end (i.e. should have been shut down years ago). Forestry programs for example, though popular in my area result in no jobs and haven’t since the 80s but are money makers for the...

Historically degrees didn’t get jobs, connections were what got jobs. What a lot of people are missing is formal education in society is a recent thing and beforehand it was a formality the rich and aristocratic members of society sent their children to as they were the only ones who could...

100%, my ancestors were mostly poor farmers, not exactly how I would have wanted to live. Never been a better time or place to be alive, a simple example being my son would be dead right now if it was even 100 years ago or much of the rest of the world. I just found it a very interesting...
