C’est rendu vraiment ridicule. J’ai eu la même réaction que toi en voyant ce qui se fait upvoter présentement. On dirait un mélange de boomers, de bots, de manipulations politiques et de hellocorporate.

Il y aussi plus l’effet hivemind sûrement dû au plus grand nombre. Au moins sur Lemmy j’ai l’impression qu’il y a plus de gens qui pensent avec leur propre tête.

J’attendais cette vidéo avec impatience. C’est triste de voir sa réaction défaitiste. Je me demande ce qui serait possible à faire pour améliorer ces îlots d’urbanisation.

Got any grapes?

Yes

If you look at the author’s bio, it seems like they’re more of a hardware peripherals tester than a perf tester.

He was famously wrong about quantum entanglement. Specifically he thought there must be “hidden variables” to explain why entangled particles seem to communicate their states faster than light. His famous quip “Spooky Action at a Distance” was him mocking what turned out to be true: that there are no hidden variables and no faster than light communication.

You have a lot of experience with victims of sexual assault?

These style of intersections were all over the place when I lived in the Netherlands and they make cycling circulation much more fluid and safe. Hopefully they synchronize the lights properly using induction loops on the asphalt.

Also, can we get those in Montreal on the REV? Left turns are deadly for cyclists and drivers sometimes have trouble turning right during rush hour.

I would rethink posting the cut of my house keys online for all to see…

We can already see the opposition’s false equivalence rhetoric take hold. Here’s the difference:

Say you had 1M$ a couple years ago to invest (lucky you, was it a gift from your parents?). Say you didn’t do much research and invested in a stock that was pretty low at the time and you sell after the new tax at which point you see a return of an extra 25% (you were pretty lucky to beat the market with little effort). This means you get back 1.25M$ before taxes. The extra amount of money you have to pay with this new tax is exactly 0$ more than before! This is because your gains are 250k$ and you still haven’t reached the new limit.

If on the other hand you were even luckier and somehow managed to get 30% extra (!!!). You’re only going to pay the increased rate on 50k$ that’s above the 250k$ you made.

Now if you’re starting out with 10M$ and get the same kind of return that new tax is going to bite.

Ask yourself though, who is playing with that kind of money. It’s not the vast majority of “people who invest”. It’s going to be the extra rich.
