The problem is somewhat exaggerated though.

The technology already exists to share charge across multiple cars, and since most cars don't need that much charging, that's not really a huge problem.

It wouldn't be as fast as a dedicated charging spot, but for at home charging that's fine for most.

Lol, can you stop just making things up. It's like you've heard one anti-bev podcast and decided you're an expert

It's fun seeing someone with so little understanding of electricity spreading the misinformation someone else fed them.

Most houses existing panel have the capacity for a level 2 charger.

If you have a gas stove you really shouldn't be using it without the fan running.

A power outage is one of those times as people are tempted to use it more and for longer if it's the easiest source of heat.

Thankfully heat pumps have gotten better since your father's day. And natural gas is only going to keep getting more expensive. For a price of equipment that will last you 15-25 years it's becoming harder to justify gas heating.

For new builds ground source heat pumps should become more standard, they cost more, but they'll save a lot in the long run.

A poorly written opinion piece. It's great to see the globe and mail hasn't changed.

Fixed it for you...

Basically even if someone it talking about the previous acting career, which on the surface should seem credible. It's really hard to properly judge if the person actually is creditable because of how often Joe will interview uncredible people and spin them as creditable.

Basically Joe's creditability has be harmed so it's hard to trust anything or anyone he talks to at face value

For future reference. Anytime people are talking about "their tax bracket" in a progressive tax system, they are talking about the top level bracket.

It's typically redundant to, mid conversation, list all the tax brackets that exist under the one you're talking about.

Driverless cars could really help solve the "last mile" issue in many transit systems.

I dislike taking transit because I have to take one unpredictable bus from my house to the train, take the train the majority of the distance, then take another unpredictable bus to my destination.

The issue of infrequent buses through neighborhoods isn't going to be solved anytime soon. But if I could take an electric driverless car from my house to the train I would be a lote more likely to take public transit over just taking my existing car.

Driverless cars will be cheaper.

Currently they might not be because of the huge upfront R&D costs, but they will be cheaper.

Like any new tech it is initially more expensive and the price comes down with time.

Driverless tech is also useful due to it being safer divers then humans in most situations.

Humans are still more adaptable in completely unexpected situations, but those cases are few.

I noticed this too. I tweaked some settings and it seemed to resolve itself.

I don't remember which settings I changed, but the pre-downloading images one seemed suspicious to me

And to clarify. Canada is a net exporter of oil. But most of that oil goes west and to port. About 10% of the oil we import is from the middle east. The majority of the oil we import is from the US. And we mainly import oil because it's cheaper to import it than it is to move that much oil east.

At this point it really doesn't make sense to build infrastructure to to move oil east, and really since oil is one big market, us selling and then buying doesn't really matter...

That still works for me. It's usually allergens I'm looking for so if the product changes I know I have to confirm the new product it's not going to try to kill me like I do with any new product.

What is this tax you're referring to? You seem to reference it in your comments, make snarky replays like the one in this comment. But fail to actually explain what tax Canada currently has in place that results in owners of multiple homes being taxed more based on how many homes they own.

Good? That's sorta the point isn't it. If they invest it back into their business it's no longer profit.

And it's up to the individual media company to make that decision.

Meta making that decision for them is potentially anticompetitive. We'll have to wait and see I guess

This Hank green video has an interesting take on this https://youtu.be/dk8pwE3IByg
