My GFil found out he had stage 4 throat cancer, by that point he was completely unable to eat or drink, and was in his 90s. He requested MAID, which likely saved him a couple weeks to a month of suffering
His pregnant granddaughter held his hand as he left this world.
This would be chalked as a MAID death, even if it only saved him a couple weeks of suffering.
actually, i go into this exact thing in my recently published book "So, You Faked Publishing A Book. Now What?". Available on all e-retailers near you.
i would love a right to repair, and to me that doesn't mean "every moron with a screwdriver" can repair it, but replacement parts should be availible, for minimum amount of time after the product launches, at a reasonable markup.
I'm happy to have a pro replace the battery in my phone, but he should be able to buy JUST the battery, the existing one should have pull tabs, and there shouldnt be any insane warnings.
Similar, if the motherboard of my stove goes, it shuoldnt cost $700 for what basically an arduino.
The conservatives truly want to destroy Canada, they look to the south, see the divided country down there, and say "yes, please, some of that up here"
Starting Sept. 3, anyone who accepts work through these and other gig-based apps, such as ride-hailing and delivery services, must receive $20.88 an hour from the time they accept an assignment to the time it is completed, the province says
The $20.88 figure is 20 per cent higher than B.C.'s minimum wage of $17.40 an hour in order to address the gaps between gigs, the government says. Like the minimum wage, it will be adjusted annually to keep up with inflation.
So, yea, doesnt sound like it includes operating expenses, but thats why its higher than just minimum.
Now onkly the BC conservatives would do the same thing....
