Re:British Columbia to recriminalize use of drugs in public spaces

How do you compel a prosecutor to bring a case forward, if they know the judge is likely to dismiss the case. It's a weird situation honestly where the laws exist, and police can enforce the law, but the judicial system turns a blind eye. It's a systemic issue starting at the federal level.

You must not get out often. The police roll down kits beach on ATVs looking to give out tickets for open alcohol throughout the summer.

The issue isn't that there's no laws covering these transgressions. It's the lack of prosecution that's the main issue. Even if you arrest someone for aggressively panhandling they'll be released without bail that same day. This eliminates the incentive for police to do anything since the core issue is unresolved and they still have to process the arrest.

Arguably there's an energy cost to running that software as well that's wasted. Plus potential waste on cloud providers adding hardware to support it all.

Home Depot search breaks for me when using Blocky, and is the only consistent issue I observe.

I've done this before where we ran a schema per customer and it was fabulous. Once the customer was large enough we could justify allocating a separate DB for them. The application was written in such a way that it knew which data store to query based on the user.

Small nitpick but almost every car today still has brakes that work via direct force vs by wire.

I usually either start a new hobby or go back to one I haven't worked on in a while. I find that eventually my interest in coding returns and I slowly ease back in. Doing this I find it preserves enough drive to still be good at my day job.

I always put our printers on a separate vlan that only accepts connections from our primary vlan. No magic firmware updates anymore.
