    Covid economy non real estate

    I want to see the whole college system removed from the higher learning. It would be nice if we had technical schools and research schools. It's silly to do an undergrad in CS and then do business programming as a life choice. I don't need to learn OS fundamental to code out some labour...

    Covid economy non real estate

    True, but I feel like Queens and some others are getting into the co-op game. I think it's more of a trenched and incumbent grads who are in the hiring position. Like amongst likes and connections to the alumni scheme helps also to further the UW branding.

    Just Came Back From A 6-Week Vacation 4,000 km South

    It was season 1 episode 50+ I guess, she had a few. Iranians are one of the most kindest people for sure and **** happens, but I feel like the amount of preparation that she puts into before heading out needs to be much tighter. If you have't checked out Pedro Mota, please do. He's one of...

    Covid economy non real estate

    Yea, I can imagine. It wasn't that case before. Most of my friends are UW, I'm UofT and we had guys starting at the startup in those days from Brock and whatever, the diff wasn't that much. Now, you have a direct route to anywhere and most of the people I know in norCal know about UW, not as...

    Just Came Back From A 6-Week Vacation 4,000 km South

    I gave up on that girl after Iran, as an avid traveler on two wheels I think some of the things she does is just so boneheaded. A wing and prayer is all fun till **** hits the fan.

    I mean everything we do is signaling to a point so I get it, just didn't know what the signaling meant. :)

    Poll - Preferred Social Media Platforms

    I know brotherman, me too. However, I think this is the general ebb and flow of anything, I'm gen x, so I have gone through the infancy of the internet from BBS through dialup to broadband and here. I'm glad that we're having a discussion finally about this and not letting the Zuks of the...

    Poll - Preferred Social Media Platforms

    I used to be on Reddit since 2008 (never posted), just uninstalled the app about 6 months ago. I don't do any other social media ever, so now I'm kinda out of the loop, but I think I have enough sites like hackernews/theregister etc to keep me up to date on most things tech and plenty of other...

    Covid economy non real estate

    Enterprise software, same ol same ol. I used to get senior and principal SAP consultants around $200-300/hr, now it's more around 250-300/hr and lot less in the pool. Some of my friends in the market are struggling to find "good" programmers, and I know few new grads with CS degrees from not...

    COVID and the housing market

    New Zealand increased it's prime rate and it's one of the few markets in the world that mirrors Canada as far as Real estate price increase (north of 20%). They also introduced few other fiscal sticks to curtail speculation within the market. Too early to tell, but the 3 months since, the...

    All Hail our new Queen

    I feel sad and I don't really blame her. Back in the day, we would all know her as the village idiot and she'd be admired for that role and we would just buy her smokes and a double double here and there. But thanks to the conference of dunces that is the connectivity of the interwebz, she has...

    The downfall of the West is upon us.

    I understand your frustration brother, but look beyond the short term. When India instituted a caste based intake policy for higher education, there was almost a revolt. Cause, once again the argument against it was as the same as today that the intake wasn't based on merit and based on some...

    The downfall of the West is upon us.

    I'm ready with my pitchfork, where we meeting? Also, as a visible minority, most of us don't give a flying fk, but we got whiny cunts in our shade too... Also, the amount of Castism that exists in "my" community will make the SS rally in Gduńsk looks like a gathering of progressive liberals :)
