1/ One of the key things that preceded the Canadian crisis and recovery of the mid-late 1990s was a sudden interest in education as a policy topic. And I wonder if an interest in education isn't in effect a pre-condition for any future-oriented society.

@andrewdrinkh2o @JonBoeckenstedt Clearly you need to learn from me. Second trip in 9 months next week!

@AlexUsherHESA Let’s hope provinces get out of the way of institutions and let them actually use the fund and take on debt.

Only took them 22 months to take up my suggestion of re-creating a 1960s CMHC program for student housing (https://t.co/pxVxYptjL0)

@David_Moscrop Punishment is putting it mildly. I failed a few times before sticking with it. Highly recommend finding a walk through you like because there is TONS the game doesn’t tell you. https://t.co/VRUGkT5eTy and https://t.co/PlHwAv2Ow0 both really helped me.

Is there a name for the feeling when all you want out of life is to live in harmony, respect each others health & wellbeing and do the most you can to show you value the people in your community, but you also want to quit society and move to an island with only your loved ones?

After using AWS for ~14 years, I've internalised a handful of design patterns that I try to apply to my own software. I'm keen to know if it's the same for other folks.

Roughly: tags, IDs (thrice), limits, pagination.

Someday, God willing, I will attend my children’s weddings, refuse to eat what they serve and demand butter noodles and nuggets.

Megan Rapinoe comes out forcefully for trans inclusion in sports and health care.

"We’re putting everything through God forbid a trans person be successful in sports. Get a grip on reality and take a step back."

She's a national treasure. This is how you ally.

Often we think of data professionals in higher education, in IR or IT. Here are 5 reasons why starting my career as an enrollment services analyst helped me hone my data craft. https://t.co/xWO07h7Ko3
