there’s this movie called breaking bad. mike is in it. he says “waltuh” and kid named finger. hope this helps 🌞
BC is also pretty strict. Those who do software development in areas where failure could cause threat to life, health, or the environment are required to be (or overseen by) Professional Engineers, and non-PEngs can’t call themselves software engineers. The major universities offer accredited software engineering programs which are separate degrees from computer science, focus less on theory, and include first year sciences and professional ethics courses.
No actually. If you consider the plants to be Archaeplastida (glaucophytes, red algae, and Viridiplantae) or Viridiplantae (the green algae including Embryophyta) then the common plant ancestor is unicellular (greens and reds evolved multicellularity independently). If you consider the plants to just be Embryophyta (the land plants) then they already had highly specialized cells and looked plant-like before they split off from the rest of the green algae.
I’m not sure if the fungal common ancestor is believed to have been unicellular or multicellular but if it was multicellular then it would’ve been filamentous like modern multicellular fungi, rather than a sheet of cells
Fun fact: Animal embryos can be disassociated by depriving them of calcium (E-cadherin, the molecule that holds the cells together, needs to calcium to work) and then can be allowed to reassociate by adding back calcium. If you do this in early enough stages then the embryo will function and develop normally once reaggregated, despite all the cells being jumbled up
Early animals were likely very similar to Trichoplax, but they weren’t Trichoplax. Trichoplax adherins is a modern species with just as many millions of years of evolution between it and the first animal as between us and the first animal. Just bugs me when people end up implying that orthogenisis is real
I think you misread wikipedia when it talks about its endosymbioses. Whole bacteria are found within an organlle (the endoplasmic reticulum) of Trichoplaxs.
That being said what you described does happen in a number of organisms (including ‘complex’ ones like nudibranchs): they steal the chloroplasts from the algae they eat in a process called kleptoplasty. Seeing as mitochondria and chloroplasts originated as bacterial endosymbionts that were then heavily integrated into their hosts, calling kleptoplasty a form of symbiosis isn’t that unusual.

The HBC History Foundation will continue to exist as a non-profit and all the HBC records have been held by the Manitoba Archives since the 70s, so the bit of heritage that actually matters is going to stay.
Not 200 years. The last major direct conflict was the War of 1812 but relations weren’t rosy until the Great Rapprochement starting around 1895. The period inbetween saw the Fenian Raids, Patriots’ War, Britain’s tacit support of the Confederacy and the Trent Affair, and disputes around the Oregon Country and Alaska border. Hell, Confederation happened mostly because of fears of the US’s growing power after its civil war.
There’s an actual commercial product that does this. It even meets UL and CSA standards.
Tall Boyz: absurdist sketch comedy somewhat evocative of Kids in the Halls (which makes sense Bruce McCulloch was executive producer). Or hell just watch old Kids in the Hall.
Haven’t gotten around to seeing it myself but I’ve heard North of North is pretty good. It’s a sitcom set in Nunavut
Das Boot is also really good. A very raw and suspenseful Second World War drama set both in occupied France and inside a German submarine. There’s also no “pretend this guy isn’t speaking english” thing which is pretty cool. The actors actually speak German when their characters speak German, French when they speak French, etc. So most of the show is subtitled.
To people who feel this way, Canadian nationalism is that which was defined by Lester Pearson’s flag change, Pierre Trudeau’s official multiculturalism, and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Further promotion of “post-nationalism” only feeds into this perception, and causes further alienation of those people who want to retain the Canada they grew up in.
Won’t someone think of the 84+ year olds who voted against Pearson
What’s funny about his imagined historical Canadian identity is that it always excluded non-Europeans but has always included francophones. Like I think if he learned what “speak white” means his head would explode.
It’s the habitual be, a seperate tense in Black American English
Fun fact: while all the other packages have gory images on them, the “smoking causes impotence” ones show a floppy cigarette
I don’t see what they would gain by doing that. The slim chance of staying in government until the fall is super valuable to the Liberals, giving the ability to get the new leader’s name out there and to prove that they can handle Trump.
Edit: Yesterday the NDP said that they’re no longer committing to bring down the government so I feel like the Liberals have more of a reason not to drop the writ. That being said, Carney said he’d be willing to call an election once he’s sworn in. So we’ll see
