Opinion | NASA Flew by the Moon, but Behind the Scenes, Its Science Is a Chaotic Mess

Artemis II inspired everyone at so many levels.

This should not make us forget the current attacks on science and the need to continue to fight for science.

Il y avait vraiment de très bonnes idées et mécaniques dedans. Comme avec d'autres projets du cimetière Google, certains éléments se sont retrouvés alors dans d'autres projets.

(Après c'est Google et on voit la manière dont gère les données ou ses reculs sur certaines valeurs ces dernières années)

When I do multiple day hikings or some activities, intensive work sessions day onsite...

I understand for the majority of cases but we can stay open to some other situations that some other experience. What one do is not what other do.

You may not need on the plane itself but where you go depends on your activities. Everyone is different in their needs for that but often it is not for the flight itself (just that you can only carry them in the cabin now the same way all my cameras - and others- batteries now has to be too)

Ahahah what I realized over time is that the people who commented the most my accent in my non native language (English for example) are always the one from my native language while the one from that other language never mind (or less).

Well it doesn't really matter. Everyone has an accent even as francophones we all have a different one.

Most importantly he is very clear / easy to understand.

Well his French is very good especially being spontaneous answering a question.

At least during the winter it didn't disappear fully so it is a good message and it was nice to see station around / people using it all those months.

Always good to give and keep choice in terms of mobility.

Canada’s flawed transit (and what we can learn from Copenhagen)
Canada’s flawed transit (and what we can learn from Copenhagen) YouTube video by CBC

"One of the biggest problem we have in transportation planning in Canada is that we don't view our transportation modes as a comprehensive network" - @jedwinmok.com

Nice to see @cbcnews.ca with @hudsonyuen.bsky.social for a video on what to learn from Copenhagen’s public transit solutions.

I understand and that is a natural feeling but for real it doesn't mean no one care and also it should not stop you to share something you feel interesting for you / overall.

I don't know about all the number but maybe the Likes is not a relevant metrics anymore. You may have an impact without like because the person get the information, read the link you share or other way...

I don't say that the stagnation is not there or there no lack of retaining.

Congratulations. It sounds like a good opportunity and it is also good that you chose something that you felt you would have regret to not take.

High-Speed Rail Initiative from Toronto to Québec City Information about the High Frequency Rail (HFR) project, including the procurement process and ways to learn more.

VIA HFR-VIA TGF Inc. and Alto are the same. So this is talking about the high speed train corridor when you see that ;)

This article (2023) about the future High Speed Train between Madrid and Lisbon, was mentioning that the limited connection between the two countries were mainly due to "discrepancies in electrical voltages and signalling systems" and the cost to adapt.

The Best Tactics for Tackling Speeders Drivers who exceed speed limits are the cause of about one-third of all crash deaths in the US. To slow them down and save lives, cities have several effective tools.

"That may be the most important lesson about local speed mitigation tactics. These moves can clearly save lives; researchers don’t doubt their effectiveness. Even better, many residents are eager to see them implemented. The missing link: policymakers courageous enough to do the right thing."

Trade without accountability, pollution without borders No executive — in Washington, Ottawa or elsewhere — should have the unilateral power to dismantle protections, bypass accountability.

"Canada and Mexico must urgently break the chain of deepened integration with the U.S., as the latter has proven to be driven by violence, openly hostile to regulation, dismissive of international norms and indifferent to the deleterious cross-border consequences of its policies."

Sadly it becomes the new norm more and more to have those variations with all the consequences at different level...

Did you check the publications.gc.ca for example with that publications.gc.ca/collections/... ?

There is also the tracker launched in January by the CHMC : www.cmhc-schl.gc.ca/professional...

But sadly the populist and far right (and some extremism) are very active and growing in many of them too (despite seeing what it did and what it is doing currently) so it makes many institutions / freedom / progress / rights always fragile and never taken for granted.

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

I am not sure that with the new rules about Airbnb the passage about it is true now for Montreal. It is clearly less (not?) profitable if you really want a place to serve only that purpose with many months not available for that use.
