  • Isn't this report showing year over year increases?

    • Pier in British Columbia

    Jump

  • Sorry about that

    • How programmers flex on each other - Fireship

    Jump

  • That was comedy gold. Learned all the good flexes

    • How to Short-Circuit the Outrage Machine

    Jump

  • Yep same thing with all those ads like 90% fail this. They're designed to drive engagement. Best thing you can do is stop doom scrolling. Failing that, ignoring those obvious attempts to get you to respond.

    • I created a faction in Canvas (lemmy's /r/place) - /c/Canada

    Jump

  • I joined, not sure what that does though

    • Making a Canadian Flag on Lemmy's r/Place

    Jump

  • First time participating in this. Seems interesting, let's get this flag done!

    • What are some notable blunders in history that resulted in huge loss?

  • Haha, yeah we went to an Indian restaurant in Nimes because my friend has a severe gluten allergy. I had a vindaloo there that was milder than any food I've had in North America.

    Jump

  • Ah I see. The ads I saw were on billboards so thankfully didn't have to hear them. They were advertising some kind of "Louisiana" style chicken sandwich, which was ironic because the French find black pepper spicy. I can only imagine how mild it must actually be.

  • Ah Reddit Lake has made it to Lemmy

  • Empty stores, somehow, store managers had a perverse incentive to keep store inventory levels low. Their prices were really high as well. A rushed SAP implementation meant that executives didn't have enough insight into business operations. You can read more here https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Target_Canada

  • When I was in France this past spring I did see advertisements for Burger King so they must have had some success. I do remember McDonald's having great dessert options.

    • Bhutan hopes to be next great baseball country

    Jump

  • So great to see kids given the opportunity to play ball. It must be so rewarding to be able to provide this opportunity to those kids.

  • Target's failed expansion into Canada. It's taught as a case study on what not to do in business schools now.

    • Costco voted most respected grocery retailer as Loblaws, Sobeys fall: survey

    Jump

  • What's telling is that some of Loblaws brands actually went up in the survey. When you own so much of the grocery business and have a captive customer base you can do pretty much whatever. Do we have any antitrust legislation in this country?

    • YSK: The Dark Knight came out 15 years ago and you are not young anymore

    Jump

  • Jokes on you, I wasn't young then, either. Hahaha, oh wait...

    • Justin Trudeau and Sophie Grégoire Trudeau announce separation

    Jump

  • Wow that's unexpected

    • Workation - nice or stupid?

    Jump

  • I think that's a skewed way of looking at it. I can see the appeal if your family is able to take advantage. Like if your kids are off and your spouse doesn't work (or maybe can also work remotely). That way you can enjoy some nicer weather and a different location and are able to stay longer. It's definitely not for me because like you said I'd rather just have a vacation, but I think blaming it on capitalism is a bit of an odd way of looking at what's essentially someone's lifestyle choice.

    • Nova Scotia's population is suddenly booming. Can the province handle it?

    Jump

  • I was definitely recently surprised to see the population of Nova Scotia break 1 million after being stagnant for so long. It's probably overall better for the country to have the population a bit more evenly distributed than it is now

    • TIL during the early days of the internet, companies tried to prohibit linking to some of their sites. The linked site linked to all of them during half of 2002
