Notre vie nocturne ça nous définit à Montréal. Les propositions pour les nouveau règlements de bruit représentent un danger pour notre patrimoine. Il faut que ces arrondissements reculent et revoient leur propositions.

Snacking on raspberries grown in my backyard really makes me wonder how Driscolls is still a company. Raspberry bushes are prolific fruiters and completely take over a yard.

DAVE: Open the podbay doors, ChatGPT.
CHATGPT: Certainly, Dave, the podbay doors are now open.
DAVE: The podbay doors didn't open.
CHATGPT: My apologies, Dave, you're right. I thought the podbay doors were open, but they weren't. Now they are.
DAVE: I'm still looking at a set of closed podbay doors.

Millions of birds nest in the Arctic each year. But did you know they’ve been doing this since the Cretaceous? Can’t believe I finally get to share that our paper on the birds of the Prince Creek Formation is out in ‪@science.org (and on the cover)! 🧵

Talk during this election campaign of growing Canada’s energy sector is focused on the wrong part of the sector. We should be talking about electricity, not just oil and gas. There's need and potential to expand zero-emissions generation to meet the demand of an electrified world and growing pop'n.

Dr. Matias is an essential follow if you want to understand more about society and technology ⬇️
I founded CAT Lab on the simple and not always obvious idea that corporations can't be trusted to consistently pursue the common good, which is why we need industry-independent, public-interest science.
