Just under 2 years since the last election, Justin Trudeau has called another one in the hopes of attaining a majority government this time.

Boeing's Starliner is once again put on hold indefinitely, this time due to hardware issues. Once again, SpaceX seems to put itself ahead of the competition.

With a renewed interest in space exploration, many have complained that money would be better spent elsewhere. I think they're wrong. Through space exploration programs, many technologies we use everyday were first developed. Who knows what other technologies await us?

@RRebass Exactly, the reframing of certain activities like going to the restaurant or gym as "priviledges" is especially appalling. It's a solution that'll cause way more harm than good in the future.

By the time people realize what this will set the precedent for, it'll be too late...

Forget about buying adspace online, soon you'll be able to place your ads in space!
With a camera pointed at the satellite, you'll be able to watch live as people fight over each pixel on this decentralized screen in orbit.

@bayance282 I think we'll go back to handshakes and fist bumps. Some may try keeping the elbow bumps going, but they've always felt too awkward to me (I suspect I'm not alone on this).

With increasing reliance on algorithms and cloud storage, we've arrived at a point where you don't own your data or know what is done with it.
Even with the most noble of intentions, we need to ask ourselves if the cure isn't worse than the disease. #ENCS282 #PrivacyInYourHands

🚨🚨 Apple says to "protect children," they're updating every iPhone to continuously compare your photos and cloud storage against a secret blacklist. If it finds a hit, they call the cops.

iOS will also tell your parents if you view a nude in iMessage.

Now that we're in the second year of the pandemic, I'm curious how well public messaging has been regarding vaccines and guidelines.
How has your confidence in public health officials and experts changed since pre-pandemic times? Let me know why below

@BarzaniIsmael If you sell it to Apple, odds are that they'll patch it. Selling it to the government will 100% lead to spying on citizens that I can't get behind in any scenario.

Nuclear fission is the cleanest and most efficient energy source we've developed so far. But, nuclear fusion has the potential to surpass it if it's commercially developed. Will it finally become a reality since the first projects from the 90s?
