Here’s just one of the unprecedented measures the Liberals pushed through at the end of this session:

Cabinet ministers will now be allowed to authorize the use of banned pesticides in the name of “national economic security.”

Even if they’ve been deemed unsafe for human health.

Debate was shut down, and scientists, public health and environmental experts were not allowed to testify before the bill was passed.

Another gift to powerful corporations at the expense of Canadians.

Legislation by lobbyists.

Perfect: “For Plato, the source of inequality was a disease of the soul that the Greeks called pleonexia — a kind of insatiable greed. In Plato’s “Gorgias,” Socrates likened this condition to a leaky jug: No matter how much water one pours into it, it will demand more. For some, the desire for money extends only so far as is necessary to cover their needs; for others, the desire is infinite.”

Jeff Bezos: “Biological limits are real, but digital potential is infinite. If we starve our data infrastructure of cooling resources just to sustain baseline human comfort, we are actively delaying the birth of a super-intelligence that could solve all of our resource problems in the first place. Sometimes you have to prioritise the intelligence that will save us over the biology that slows us down,” he added.

Kurz:

Rhinoceros can’t see very well. But with their weight, it’s not their problem anymore.

All of sudden I realized this wording perfectly fit leading developers and soft skills.
