What #novascotia is attempting is not something any Canadian government has previously done. It is attempting to re-make the relationship between #universities and the state. #canada #university https://higheredstrategy.com/nova-scotia-and-the-politics-of-listening/

We have to keep our heads about us because when opportunities do arise to voice our concerns, or propose alternatives, we need to be able to calmly and clearly describe the future we'd rather have instead. #ai #llm #generative https://cohost.org/mtrc/post/4279028-ai-is-already-better

We are still mired in the “Everything is fine!” phase, where nervous, sweating politicians with pasted-on smiles beckon you into their doomed states while silently praying that the collapse doesn’t come while they’re still in office. #climatechange #climate https://www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/the-insurance-apocalypse-conversation

When #canada created its own pension plan, in 1965, to address the growing poverty of retired Canadians sixty-five and older—thank you, Lester B.

promoting social connection is key to reducing the harmful effects of #climatechange including its effect on #mentalhealth . Other studies also show that the more connected we are, the better we will be able to discuss and respond to climate change. https://theconversation.com/it-is-not-just-heat-waves-climate-change-is-also-a-crisis-of-disconnection-210594

By pressing a button on the remote, you set off a spring-loaded hammer that strikes a solid aluminum rod in the device, which then rings out at an ultrasonic frequency. Each button has a different length rod, thus a different high-frequency tone, which triggers a circuit connected to a microphone in the television to finish the command. #retro #media https://www.theverge.com/23810061/zenith-space-command-remote-control-button-of-the-month
