crunchbase says that they only have 11-50 peeps
which would indicate about 30 engineers tops, probably deffo more like 15
which would indicate lol, no more engineers, actually

have fun not developing any more software i guess

switching all your devs to different ones: also a hilariously idiot idea
not even taking into account the union idiocy, which they will prolly get away with but will probably lead to their inability to hire anyone decent

Software developers aren't engineers.

tbh, most service providers are private, but they can't charge for preferential access and they have to play by the province's rules. private clinics can't accept patients through the public system.

so as long as they're willing to follow ohip regs they're fine, but this being google, and their whole "vision" document being based on "we need to be free to do whatever we want", i'm not optimistic

whenever i hear about the erosion of universal healthcare in places like canada or the uk it makes me sad because I don�t want any other places ending up like the US.

this depends on the state

in many states you are indeed liable for hitting a pedestrian or a cyclist, even if it is ostensibly the pedestrian or cyclist's fault.

you are the one in the two ton metal shell with power steering and high grade brakes, ergo it is incumbent on you, the driver, to protect more vulnerable road users, even when they are using the road incorrectly.

since maine is a rural state full of old people it's probably perfectly legal to just run people over because they were in the way, but that is not universally the case

bicycles have no business on the road and they are hazards in all cases. this is not to say there aren't bad laws attempting to reverse reality, but such laws cannot be taken seriously by any sane individual

my understanding (at least what my boss told me in china) was that in a collision the biggest vehicle is at fault

not sure if that applies to right of way as well

i don't think cis autodrag is an anti-semite, though she might be. certainly being a member of one or more minority groups doesn't preclude you from being horrifically bigoted to others.

however i think it's more likely that J and N are beside each other on the keyboard
