When NS fishermen say this is a matter to be decided before the Supreme Court, by the Provinces, or by the DFO, they are pre-emptively denying any recognition of our nationhood and asserting, however obliquely, that Canada has authority and jurisdiction over us.

I tried to login to DigitalOcean today for the first time in years.

I actually can't do anything without giving them a credit card. Even view a team who is paying them.

So, uh, I guess I can't do any work today?

Any loss of life is sad.

Since 1680 (not a typo) over 1600 police have died on duty (incl car accidents etc)

The numbers of deaths of those in police custody far exceed this relatively small number a rate of 5.3 per year.

if your Big Data person does NOT know what this picture means, get rid of them

the famous "survivorship bias" diagram of an idealized PV-1 bomber viewed from the top with red dots around the tail, center fuselage, wing roots behind the engines, and outer edge wing tips.<br /><br />The US military wanted to use data from returning damaged bombers, the red dots signified damage they recorded, to determine what parts of the plane to uparmor. Statistician Abraham Wald realized that they were ONLY able to analyze the planes that RETURNED. <br /><br />Therefore the damage they were recording was ONLY that which could be sustained and allow the crew to safely return. The planes that had sustained fatal damage, the ones that really needed armor, didn't make it back to be recorded by the statisticians
